Zwanze day 2014

That bottle share looked huge! 80-90 strong! We had kids so we just walked by. Enjoyed the heck out of the Zwanze beer! Excellent stuff!

 

I got there late, but it was a good time. Happy Zwanze Day!

 

GREAT PIC!

 

Great share! I brought the Boysenberry Bu, BA Muy Bonita (Fart Smell strong) & the Dark Lord.

 

I got a couple today. The label looks a bit crooked, but maybe it's just my vision!

 

Holy shit those bottle shares are dangerous!

 

It was a great share, nice meeting you all! @CraftBeerFTW that BA Muy Bonita tasted amazing though, thank you. And thanks to @WTKeene for that Zwanze taste!

Hope to see some of you again soon. Cheers!

 

Awesome bottle share, ladies and gentlemen. Glad I got to meet some more of you, but missed out on some of the folks I was really hoping to chat with. Even though we left around 4, I was still drunk when I went to bed last night, so I know it was a good share!

Special thanks to @jesterkingbeer for letting us be there, and for hanging out and participating. It always a pleasure!

 

Thanks everyone for an awesome share, and to @jesterkingbeer for allowing it to augment their very well run Zwanze day!

I was there til 10 PM, a long day with a lot of great beer and then a lot of water. Them 11 hour drinking days.

I was cleaning up the bottle share tables when it got dark and I came home with an extra bottle opener. If you are missing a bottle opener, please pm me the style, color, etc. so I can try to find out who it belongs too.

P.S. thanks to the people who stayed late and helped clean up, and then hung out with me and shared some 512 sour peach.

 

I really enjoyed the share even though I showed up late.

It was smart of Jester King to put the tables a little out of the way.

The Zwanze session itself was well-run; the lottery and wristband system seemed to work as intended.

 

Great share guys, wish I could have stayed longer but dat rain...

 

The rain was a small annoyance in an otherwise fun day. We got a good chance to chat with @elWhite a little bit and shared some great beers with @jesterkingbeer too. Thanks for everybody that helped clean up too. We tried to do our part, but most of the crowd was gone by 8PM.

 

I had to go home for a family emergency and stayed for a couple extra days and ended up having to leave just a few days before Zwanze. Wish I could have made it! Anybody snag an extra glass they'd wanna trade?

 

Great times on Saturday! Wonderful hanging out with each and every person I met. Everyone was really nice and generous with the pours. Tried some very interesting things... one of the most memorable being that thing aged in Laphroaig barrels. Hope to make it back to @jesterkingbeer country sooner than later.... Cheers!

(would love to see some more pics of that crazy graveyard if anyone has some)

 

Thanks Jester King for the Zwanze day. The Cantillon brew was tasty.

'Twas the night after Zwanze
And all through the house
Was Phil eating pig macs
Because the heartburn from the sours wasn't enough.

Not good at rhyming.

 

I always bring a bottle of Topo Chico to drink with sours to reverse the heartburn. Deals with hydration as well.
