    I read this and laughed. I think that's like a per day average from Fobab to Black Friday?

    I think you meant per bottle?

    I would advocate for helping other advocates. Advocates helping advocates! I’m a big supporter of the Young Center, which is a group that helps immigrant children obtain the best outcomes:

    I’m also pro-local groups (doesn’t FR do stuff with Green City?) or environmental causes (Nature Conservancy!)

    This one sounds great. Green City gets plenty from us so we are good there!

    20-25 a guy is good.

    Are there charities for disadvantaged neckbeards? I would hate to see underprivileged beer geeks having to drink macro lagers this holiday bourbon barrel aged stout season.

    I read the website link and thought it said seal eaters. I was very worried for a brief moment.

    Considering the founder owns a private equity fund, I'd imagine he'd expand as much as possible before it's time to cash in...

    FYI the crowler machine broke today and they aren't able to fill crowlers temporarily.

    And if you are used to their lovely rye hazy ipa I suggest trying the new oak aged hazy ipa before buying a four pack. I found it overly sweet and prominent noted of vanilla and honey. Hops fell off. Would be better with fruit.

    I must’ve missed something. What’s the story here?

    Friends don't let friends drink at breweries that expand into OHIO... As far as states go, their one claim to fame is having a state name that also doubles as an awkward greeting...Forbidden Root Hawaii sounds much better.

    It’s on the spreadsheet. I was thinking Huna and last year’s Zacatón to encourage a revisiting of last year’s Mexican stout battle royale. But I’m open to requests!
