    ACE experimental and LaLa both awesome. And agreed with @BoardwalkBock - let’s not go down the treehouse v OH route..........we all know OH is way better

    Had the coffee vip - really good. Agreed with whoever posted earlier about stay wild. Good to have had it, but nothing major to write home about

    Leeds P-Town awards:
    Highlight beers of P-town: BA Adjunct Trail, PB Medianoche, BA breakfast by Main & Mill

    Highlight food of P-town: Pizza spot on the way to the washroom working double time to deal with pastryboiz.

    Highlight moment of P-town: guy carrying a case of Budweiser cans past the line of VIP entrants around 10.30.

    Highlight fight of P-town: the drunk guy who got in a fight with a wrestler, presumably over whether wrestling was real or not.

    I myself tapped out around 2.30 on beer and 3 on attendance. Got everything I wanted and looked like it might get messy. Someone out there please have a messy story.

    On the subject of wrestlers, another highlight was the guy smashing Andrew, Matt, and Sam with a baking sheet, chasing them out of the ring, then asking the crowd of alleged beer lovers where the lagers and kolschs were.

    Short answer there would be Big Alice, purveyors of the finest Strawberry Kiwi Kölsch within Industry City.

    Wartega and Lineup seemed to be short lived or we could have pointed him the way of Bieryonce. They had nothing on tap during my one visit to Wartega.

    Shake don't Jam is a beer peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I'm surprised it only has a 4.0 aggregate on untappd. Am I just a newbie pastry boi for liking it so much and there's much better stuff out there?

    Dude it’s a collab with fucking GRIMM. Obviously that means it gets capped at a 4.0. SMH

    Cue @SpinSamzo to complain about the naming it Genny Dream Ale when it doesn't have lactose in it, leading to further branding confusion.

    Not sure what is more upsetting-
    Rochester getting an exclusive, or case counts.

    Having gone to school in Buffalo and drinking quite a bit of genny cream ale, this is really cool to see. Hope it at least makes it to the taproom here.

    They should be more upset about paying $17 for a 4-pack of this stuff.

    Woof

    I’m no @dhaakon but if my math is correct, that would run about $127.

    Genny Cream Ale is good, but it should be no more that a buck, a buck-fifty a can. Nostalgia, be damned.
