    I'd be glad to be of assistance if you need help downing the rest of your BC haul.

    VBS: Obscuro & Nimbosus. Thanks @Kramerbarthomer! I thought I was going to save this one to share, but I've got one of those weeks ahead of me, so I wanted to at least have something nice before it really gets underway.

    And no, the bottle didn't leak, I had to wait for my phone to charge to take the photo and I got thirsty...

    Paper grading is done for the night (just finished a set of 48 essays (over several days)...), so I'm having another. Now it's time to get reading the assigned chapters for tomorrow so that I can remember what the heck I am supposed to discuss with the kiddos...

    Avery is such a solid brewery, flies a but under the radar IMO. Cheers Kevin!

    Couldn't wait to open this on my birthday this Saturday - so, screw it. Its delicious, it really lives up to the hype - super well balanced lambic.

    Note to self - next time you're in Canada for a week... bring 3x the beers. Already running out.

    I was thinking the same thing. I posted in the FT forum but heard crickets. I will wait until closer to Saturday and give it another shot. Either that or hope you get taken care of and that there's a little left for me.

    I'm not even 100% sure I'm going. If I get some I'll try to help people out.

    Just out of curiosity, are their truck sales as crazy as most beer releases these days?

    Not really, people line up early but there's nearly always enough beer for everyone in line. They usually have a DJ and bring in a food vendor of some sort. Sometimes they even bring a keg around in a radio flyer and give out free samples. They really do a great job with the events.

    The weather is always the wildcard. I've had beautiful, warm, sunny days. I've also stood in the rain for 2 hours. Looks like the temperature will be the worst part this time.
