    I read a report that the CIA is using limited beer sales online to redirect to critical Russian online infrastructure for crowdsourced DDoS attacks.

    Project “Toppling Goliath.”

    Never been to the Balmoral taproom--anybody have any Friday menu food recommendations? TIA.

    Noodles are a tasty dish as are the Roast Beef sandwich or the Porchetta sandwich. For the Noodles I usually add chicken but I grimace as the entree shoots up to $15.

    I wish they had "burritos" at Balmoral as I'm just a simpleton. Beer+Burrito...an unbeatable combo.

    I haven't had anything bad that I've ordered at Balmoral, which has been noodles (my usual), roast beef, brisket or the roast chicken. The bread really is amazing there, too.

    I wish the Balmoral taproom would bring back the spicy tuna poke. That was super delicious.

    But if you're looking for something to share, the bread is a staple menu item.

    It makes me chuckle that one of the burritos comes with fries on the inside, but you aren't able to order fries as a side. No complaints though, the mac & cheese was delicious!

    Anyone know if Benthic glassware is part of this Friday's release? It'll make the wait in line more bearable.

    They had said last week on the twitter that glassware would be available. They had not received it yet so could not post a picture.

    This from the events tab on the half acre website, looks like a preview of this year's glass:

    That looks like the Orin glass that you can buy on their online site now.
