Cellar Cleaning / Cable Car / Chicago Wild Share

Rather than trade around for each of these, I think that sharing my cable car with 3 people who can bring one each of the following to share may be an easier route. In addition to my CC, I will open a number of other bottles.

So, if you have a bottle of:

1. West Ashley
2. Fuzzy
3. VSB

and want to share it with me and 2 other people (meaning the 2 people who bring the other 2 beers, 4 total), I have a Cable Car to open.

I tried this before with a BVDL and it turned in to a bit of a nightmare with bitching and begging and judgment. I hope that the CC doesn't get Midwesterners quite as exuberant. So, I kindly ask, if you do not have one of the three beers listed to bring to the table please do not contact me. If, by some miracle, you have something rarer than these (e.g., Blauw, SHBRL, DQ, Loerik) and want to open it up then by all means; I don't think anyone else would mind.

As for the specifics:

Location: My apartment, I have a first floor unit that opens up directly to a courtyard. I am in Chicago and have what I believe to be is a fairly ideal location to do this. I am immediately off of the highway with easy access to 55, 290 and 90/94 at the 18th street exit. I am also located right by the 8-Halsted bus and have a Divvy station right across the street from me.

Date/Time: I am thinking early-mid June on a weekday starting at approximately 7:00 PM.

Ideally, this small group of invitees will help me clear out my cellar a bit. I'll open up a Baller Stout, Feral One and some more (we can discuss specifics via BM if you are interested). I'll get some salty snacks to keep everyone thirsty, as I sincerely would like to do some damage to my cellar. I only ask that you 1) aren't an asshole and 2) don't bring anyone else with you.

Thanks for reading, cheers!

 

I sincerely appreciate the sentiment but if I keep hearing these crickets I might just use the cellar to put together some trades instead. We'll see.

 

We have a Fuzzy, I will also open up a HF Norma. Shamelessly bumping my own thread.

 

@kodt , I think that you fall in the following category...

So we'll see you with that CCK in early June! BM me for details!

 

PS, another shameless bump, we have a West Ashley. So if you want to drink:

Cable Car, West Ashley, Fuzzy, Upland Persimmon, Upland Peach, Feral One and help me thin out my cellar, you need only bring a bottle of VSB.

 

Here is the confirmed list:

Cable Car
Feral One
Upland Persimmon
Upland Peach
Norma
E.
West Ashley
Fuzzy
Saison de Ble
DDG
Pulling Nails #1

Plus my cellar if we get through all of this...

If anyone wants to commit with a VSB we will be set for a total of 5 people.

 

This is all closed up, thanks for the replies and to those participating.

 

I think that the individual bringing the VSB to this tasting may have to back out, if you want to drink the following:

Cable Car
Feral One
Upland Persimmon
Norma
E.
West Ashley
Fuzzy
Saison de Ble
DDG
Pulling Nails #1

Plus my cellar if we get through all of this...

You need only bring 1 bottle of VSB!!! The tasting is on 6/10/14 at 7:00 PM sharp. If you want to share more, that would be awesome but you needn't have to. You would be the fifth person, so the pours will be significant and you won't have to worry about opening up your beer and only getting a sip of it. If you need further convincing, please BM me to see what else I have to open up.

Thanks for reading.

 

Trying to see if we can move it back to 9:30 for you.

 

Tuesday is the 10th, we are having the tasting on your day off.
