    We'll be there as well. I’ve only seen X play once before, but I’ve seen Watt perform a bunch of times. I’m too young to have seen Minutemen, but I saw fIREHOSE perform a bunch of times. Love me some Mike Watt. Plus, BW beers! Can’t wait.

    8 1/2 is my favorite Brouwerij beer since Dig My Earth. I assume it's named after the Fellini film?

    Not sure this was mentioned yet but looks like Brouwerij is losing their head brewer :slight_frown:



    Wish him the best, but it's definitely a bummer. Hopefully whoever replaces him can keep the quality up, but judging by some other breweries that have lost their head brewers somewhat recently (cough Kern cough), I'm not super confident.

    Or the new HB has mad skills and takes the OG recipes and knocks the socks off of them.

    Cheers,

    Went to BW today and grabbed some cans of 8 1/2 and Falling Water. Both tasted good, but I preferred 8 1/2. No Tahiti on tap

    Got cans of Tahiti and 8 1/2 a couple of days ago. Found Tahiti be more candy sweet than I expect from BW. Not enough juice. 8 1/2 is very good.

    Haven't been there yet, got tickets...this is pretty much my exact question. Also wondering how the can/bottle releases are going to work.
