Tree House Good Morning
OEC Experimentalist with Peaches

Treehouse - Good Morning
Other Half - All Green Everything
Kane - A Night to End All Dawns
Surly - Darkness
The Bruery - Black Tuesday

It was disappointing, however, to wait in lines on multiple occasions last night and find that the beers were not available until today:

Against the Grain - Citra Ass Down, Bo & Luke
Treehouse - Beginner's Mind
New Holland - Dragon's Milk w/Toasted Chiles

For the Cigar City fans, I believe the Hunahpu kicked in about 10 minutes.

 

So did TH only have Good Morning on and nothing else? Makes me wonder if it'll be the opposite today...Beginner's Mind instead of Good Morning.

 

I am going to session three. Any tips on where I should hit first?

 

Cue the BA contingent that believe that there are no 5s...

 

Yes, it was just Good Morning and nothing else. Tough to say what will be on today.

 

So was that their whole supply of Hunuphu that they brought that kicked? I remember Todd saying they ask the breweries to try and conserve so they have enough for all 3 sessions. If they did run out of it all then that sucks. Was looking forward to trying it tonight.

 

All green everything - other half
Banded souls - banded horn
Surly - abrasive
Good morning - tree house
The calling - boulevard

I spoke to the tree house guys last night and they never had a chance to brew beginners mind so dont expect any at sessions 2 or 3.

 

Heard the same about Beginners Mind. Only Good Morning this weekend.

 

If you're looking to try Good Morning I would make that your first stop. I went Good Morning then CBS as my 1 and 2 and was able to try everything I wanted after that.

CCB said huna kicked in 15 minutes but I haven't heard from anyone who actually had some. I'm not sure if they brought any to begin with. Or if they did, they brought a few bottles and didn't have it on their taps so it went ultra fast. It didn't make much sense either way. Make sure you know if they still have some before you get into line. Their line was the biggest because people were hoping to try huna and they ended up getting to the front and having to choose from their other offerings so it was a big time waste.

 

They definitely brought Huna, and it was poured from a tap, not a bottle. I know I got a chance to try it and the El Murcielago, and I pretty much went one booth at a time from the entrance of the event to Cigar City. Anyone who wants to try it in a given session should be able to if they make it a priority. and on that note, my five are:

Cigar City Hunahpu
Kane A Night To End All Dawns
4 Hands Madagascar
Funky Buddha's Last Buffalo in the Park
and Jackie O's Dark Apparition.

 

I would suggest getting to Cigar City first if you want to try Hunahphu. I know they had some for sessions 1 & 2.

 

Good Morning is the only thing Tree House is pouring, would hope there would be enough to get through the 3 sessions. Two longest lines last night were Cigar City and Founders, followed closely by Funky Buddha and Tree House.

 

They brought a single sixtel and poured 1/3 of it per session. Ridiculously lame. They shouldn't have said they were pouring it and just surprised people. It kicked while I was still in line outside and I didn't find out until I made it to their booth after waiting in another huge line.
