Pre-Brewvival Tasting

Giving this a bump since it's about a day away.

Grabbed a 32 oz. growler of Sexual Chocolate at Green's today. Won't be a lot, but whatever. You'll drink it and love it.

 

You got room for two more?!? I'll scrounge around the 'ol beer closet and dig up something good.

 

Other sheets shared over social media over the last couple weeks, because variety:

(Please note that Brewvival will presumably be providing printed lists at the gate, as they have every other year)

Are homebrews welcome at this shindig? I assumed so but just wanted to check. Some of my friends (who are also going to bring bottles, so this isn't some attempt to cheap out or anything) have some really good ones that they want to share.

 

T-12 hours and counting. I should be south bound and down (loaded up and trucking) in 3 hours. See ya'll soon, Red Neck Beerz

 

Looking at the spread sheet for beers, the 09 blackbeerd coast is bringing isn't the barrel aged one correct?
If it is I'm going to be extremely happy.

 

If anyone hasn't had / wants either 2013 Event Horizon or 2013 BA Blackbeerd (very good, Blanton's) let me know. Willing to trade a few bombers around at the tasting tonight.

I am also bringing a small growler to share of Conquest Sacred Heart Batch 2 IPA, kegged earlier this week. Very West Coasty and hop-burpy.

 

Correct, '09 Blackbeerd is not barrel-aged.

 

Would love a blackbeerd didn't bring much in the way of trades but maybe we can work something out

 

Cool, will bring an extra for ya.

 

BA version is on tap at Laura Alberts, as mentioned in the sex Choc thread. They had it advertised as regular Blackbeerd, but it is Blantons version. Growler is the way to go with that delicious beer.

 

Mebbe someone around your parts should bring one of those to the tasting tonight....

 

Most of what I've decided to bring are growlers at this point. Any input to this list below...

HF Double Galaxy 750mL
HF Anber 750mL
Boneyard RPM 32oz
Revolution Brewing Zanate Mole Stout 64oz
Heady Topper x2
Sierra Nevada BBL Ovila Quad 32oz (Dan, I must have just missed you yesterday)
Green Room Sang De Le Mer (collaboration w/ Saint Somewhere - Blood Orange & Rosemary Saison with Brett)
Green Room Quetzalcoatl (Imperial Red w/ Cassava Root in the mash, Poblano & Serrano peppers in the boil, & was conditioned on Chocolate & Vanilla)

^^^ In addition, I could also bring along some other goodies like Black Note, BA Yet, BA Old Ruffian, '13 Sexual Chocolate (32oz), BBomb, Arctic Devil, BCBS, but I've got to duck out around 11pm in order to work the festival tomorrow. Figuring those growlers plus the HT cans and the couple crazy-brewed Green Room brews (really excited to crack these with people as they're kind of crazy one-off brews from a very small, under the radar brewery) would be cool for the couple hours I was in attendance. Thoughts?

 

Christina and I will be there for another spin with you fine folks. We have some FL treats from her recent trip to Cigar City, as well as some old favorites of mine. Looking forward to seeing everyone, cheers!

 

The BA version is the one I want, thanks kind sir.

 

Here's my contribution:

 

Holy shit dude...

 

Thank you Brian for hosting! You and Drew were very gracious hosts. Laurel and I had some amazing beers tonight and met some really cool people. Hope we see you at Brewvival tomorrow! Zack & Laurel
