Bell's Eccentric Day

Jamie was from 2 years back, so he showed up to drink his beer. Matt Brynildson was the guest brewer last year, and I chatted with him. So there is a good possibility Matt will be back for his beer. No idea who will brew this year.

 

Jamie Floyd has a great sense of humor. I have talked to him a few time, good guy.

 

Beer and Food list was posted today.

God damn that food menu looks phenomenal.

 

Nice!

See you there. I will be looking full 1979-80 ish.

 

I will be very blue and rather Canadian drinking Sunrise Stout for breakfast.

 

Bill Morgan from Champaign will be the guest brewer this year.

 

God damn that beer list looks phenomenal!

 

Dat Amber Ale tho

 

It is very food friendly, and I see several dishes I would pair it with.

 

Great party yesterday. The food needs to have a warning sign posted in regards to the insanely putrid farts it produces the following day.

Sarcastro won the outfit of the day imo.

 

Best execution goes to that crazy guy in the Canadian tuxedo

 

Is the Cinnamon Sunrise Stout as amazing as it sounds?

 

@kzoobrew I heard black note isn't in barrels. Are they not doing it this year? Just a silly rumor?

 

The weird thing is that when I have Cinnamon Sunrise I smell green apple & think aw shit this is infected but then it tastes nothing like green apple...it's weird.
To answer your question, it is really good

 

The cinnamon sunrise at Detroit fall fest had an odd flavor. The one at eccentric day tasted great.
