What a great time! Great selection of brewers and very well organized. I like huge stouts but I was really surprised by Naparbier's Hoppy Pils. That was my favorite of the festival. What did everyone else like?
Jester King Atrial, Aurelian, Blanc - Laugar Aupa, Hop Shock and a ton of others. Just big dissapointment with the Brodie beers; a london cherry sour full of diacetyl and a lime(?) sour that smelled even worse than my toilet freshner. Tasted even worse....But apart from that a truely exceptional and exemplary festival
True, but easier to hide defaults as well. If I remember correctly one of our gang had one and there was nothing wrong with it
The Brodie's London cherry was still fermenting I guess, it was not pleasant at all. I really enjoyed the lime one though! My favorite was Atrial Rubicite, even better than the one I had from a bottle last year (batch 2 I think), I also really enjoyed the Bière de Blanc du Bois. I was really disappointed by Struise Bolshevik. The framboise had no raspberry and smelled like a boring lager, focused only on the cereal, the pêche was more interesting but with almost no fruit either. I liked the Zombination though.
