    I am making a last minute switch, taking off love child # 4 and bring HF Florence. Since Brett is not coming, I want to save the LC#4 to do side by side with #3.

    Awesome share and great company as always! Thanks @uiucphoenix for arranging our 3rd official meet up. Hopefully we can put together another one in July.

    Thinking back, I placed Savant Blanc as my favorite for the day. I had a great time and appreciate the chance to share some beers with all of you. Also Randy, I am holding on to your Enigma until the next time I see you. It will just hang out in my fridge watching all the other beer get consumed.

    Just bumping this. I know there was talk of moving it to email. Not sure if that's the case or not but I'm interested in trying to find an August date. July is pretty much shot for me at this point.

    How was your 4th man? Dead shows were fuckin' incredible eh? That Stella Blue on Saturday had me tearing up no lie!

    Hoping to get together with all you guys for one last share before I relocate to Denver at the end of August. My wedding is coming up on July 25th and I'll be in Europe for the 2 weeks following that. Maybe bring back some goods to share...

    Any chance we could do Aug. 15? I could also swing the 22nd if the 15th doesn't work.

    Hope everyone's summer is kicking ass!

    Congrats, and the 15th works for me, but the 22nd and the 8th do not.

    Am I a dick if I blow off my buddy's kid's first bday party to share beer? I'm hoping the answer is no. Congrats Dan. On the marriage and the move. I've found both to pretty awesome.

    @uiucphoenix Is Gentille's available for an August 15th share? If not, anyone else have a venue, maybe something outside?

    @AndyEdgar - can you check on if the room in your building is free that day? Great space, great views, and some outside space too.

    I have another obligation on the 15th, but it might be earlier in the day (will have to check). Either way, I'm half in.

    Looks like we are all good for the 15th at noon! It actually coincides with their anniversary and Dan mentioned having a keg of something nice from Lagunitas.

    So what will the theme be this time around @Canada_Dan, @AndyEdgar and @JNL?

    Unless anyone has any suggestions, I am up for a free for all. As people put stuff on the list, I always switch up bottles to fill in voids in styles.
