    Solid event at 83 Proof tonight. Prop '14 lasted until about 6:30pm. Bottle pours of Vanilla and Prop '13 upstairs. Free shirts and pint classes. Not bad for a Wednesday night in SF. Curious if they'll step it up for the final event @ City Beer Store tomorrow. Pours of Rare from the bottle? Hmm..

    lol rare was oxidized as crap at the Chicago block party 2 years ago. Can't imagine how bad it would taste today. They even tried to recarb it at the following block party, which helped a little but not much.

    No tulips, not that I saw. Shirts, pint glasses, metal shot glasses and bottle openers. Missed the Prop'13 pours, upstairs got pretty packed once the word got out.

    Prop '13 was provided by one of my buddies, he shared it to compare with the '14....Goose Island didn't actually bring the Prop '13, but did provide pours of Vanilla Rye from the bottle. Good times.

    I liked it a little better than '14, but less coconut on the nose. Both very good, but definitely different.

    IMHO you're not missing much. Vanilla Rye was not good to my taste buds at all. Coffee on the other hand, give me more of that!

    I traded for a Vanilla Rye and all but hated it. Tasted very medicinal to me... I will not seek it out.
