    It'll be earlier I'm the day, if I think there'll be extra time and you'll be around then I'd love to take a look around (even if it's just a bunch of barrels :slight_smile: ).


    Extremely nice of you to offer, and I would love to, but I doubt my wife (pregnant) and three kids (4,3,&2) would be up for anything other than a quick stop ha-ha. I can hear the whining and complaining already as I'm trying to enjoy some delicious beer... Cheers @jRocco2021 !

    Excited to go to the release tomorrow...I've never been to O'so and have never had anything from Funk Factory. Anyone who has been to past releases able to enlighten me on what to expect? Will some of these beers be available to try? Does Funk Factory sell glassware at the release?

    O'so will sometimes sample from bottles or have on tap the beers that they're releasing. IIRC FF has only had a beer on tap once at these releases-- White Lodge. The releases have been great in the past. O'so and Levi do a great job of getting people their beer, it's not too crowded, people share beers, and O'so has a ton of their own/other brewery beers on tap.

    Levi has had glassware in the past. Not sure this time. @FFGeuzeria?

    Yea, a few people have asked for glassware, so I'll bring up a couple cases. Just ask me for them when you pick up bottles. Here's what we have:

    The White Lodge release was super crowded to the point that I ended up leaving early. I could've just arrived at the wrong time though. Does O'so have a patio? That would add some extra space for people.

    I'm glad that many people show up to support Levi and O'so but just wish it wasn't as crowded. Other than that it was a great event. Great beers on tap, fun atmosphere, live music, and bottle pick up was easy.

    To be fair, I'm always there on the early side. Maybe it's more crowded in the evening? Given the interest in the FF beers, I'm just glad it's not total chaos. Think what it would be like if there were no proxies, and everybody who wanted bottles had to be there IP, especially with the lowered bottle limits!

    Are you going to have anything available to drink onsite?

    Oh goodness haha, I'm sure we'd end up breaking some sort of fire code. We should just take over the parking lot, that thing's huge. Space for everyone!
