    Per their email it's coming next week. It's to pay to trick out their tap room. After the four firkins begging, shall we bash them for begging as well?

    I don't think we should because this is a actual start-up not a business that has been around for years.

    Sounds pretty fun to me. My problem with the Firkins was that they are an already established company with actual income. Getting a business off the ground and funded is really tough - and most of the people you'd want to have as investors can't because of SEC rules - kickstarter is an awesome platform to bring everyone together and involved in a huge way. I'm for it!

    Officially up. The beers actually sound interesting. Ready to try some.
    The video is pretty fun and makes me like them a lot more than something like Four Firkins video.
    The donation levels are actually really good I think. I'm guessing they can't actually give beer away as stuff, but everything seems resonably priced and cool.

    This tends to happen, but less than a day in they are halfway to their goal. They are doing something special for early backers if they hit $15,000. Oh, and already one thank you message :stuck_out_tongue:

    Wow they are at $15,500 in just over a day. One of the better videos I have seen on a kick starter. I wish them the best of luck.

    I bet they get well over double their goal. They are really promoting it the right way, the Golden Ticket deal is a nice touch.

    Someone just dropped $5000. They are just a few hundred from their goal. This tap room is going to be sweet. Baby Sloths with every beer.

    Less then two days and they are there. Pretty impressive. Curious what they'll do with the extra cash they get. They seem big on getting input from people and really just wanting to do things that are fun for beer drinkers.

    Quick update. They are 7 days from the end and almost at $35,000. They sent an update email too on their progress on the brewery. Sounds like thy are closing in on being able to brew there. Lots of rules and regulations to cut through first.
