    It’s ok. I’m leaving in two weeks anyways.

    Cracked a Heady while I cleaned then got into some good whiskey after a solid Celtics win.

    There’s worse things in life.

    I actually saw the barrel... So close... yet so far away...
    Had an absolutely delicious Bière d'Alsace, which I was looking forward to try anyway, then finishing with a Polotmavý.

    Well, last night at the Krug Club meet up was a blast! (I was the guy in the Focal Banger T shirt)
    I liked how nedry we all were with Chris during the tour/Q&A. He totally seemed to dig it.
    I also now have a greater respect for the folks behind the bar pouring hundreds of perfect pours a day from those side pull faucets.
    It'll be hard to top this at the next quarterly meet up.

    Agreed, last night was a lot of fun. Glad to meet some new people and pour some beers. And I surprisingly don't have a hangover today!

    One of the best beer nights I’ve ever had.

    Thank you so much for hosting @ChrisLohring and company.

    I really suck at the Hladinka pour. If anyone needs a Mlíko pour though, I’m your man.

    The Krug club meetup was a top ten beer experience for me, amazing job @ChrisLohring!

    I'm even more impressed with the staff now that I know what it takes to make a perfect pour, and it was great to put faces to @AlcahueteJ @EnronCFO and @Sheppard.

    Ha, yes. That's pretty much how it went for me as well.

    Happy 40th to me.

    Although Altbier isn't exactly a 90 degree and humid style, it'll taste great in the A/C I'm sure.

    Happy birthday/eve.

    That’s why I’m drinking it in 70s weather.

    For those in my neighborhood, Ball Sq just got a drop of fresh Tenner and The Standard. Didn’t see Lojko, but I was in a rush.

    For those who like the French Pils, Chris has something on his Insta about a NEW French Pils. Still a cereal mash, but different base malt, new recipe, new name.
