    I'll be in the experimental room first thing. We pretty much had it to ourselves for the first 20 minutes last year. After that, it was run over. We didn't really miss anything that we absolutely wanted in the main room.

    There has been every other year (that I've been). It's like $5 cash to check a coat money goes to charity.

    This was probably already asked, but what's going to be the food situation tomorrow? Are there going to decent food vendors? Sausage, pretzels? Thanks!

    From the FOBAB Official Facebook:

    A couple of FAQ:
    - Backpacks and bags are NOT allowed, however, you will be able to check them at coat check, if need be.
    - The only sessions where ticket names will be cross referenced is the early entry IMBIBE sessions. If your tickets are General Admission, you do not need to transfer them into individuals' names, each person will just need a valid ID showing they are 21 years old.
    - There will be light snacks, but no food trucks or full meals. Please plan accordingly.
    - Times are: Friday, Nov. 11
    Session 1 // IMBIBE Entry - 5pm, General Admission 6 - 10 pm

    Saturday, Nov. 12
    Session 2 // IMBIBE Entry - 12pm, General Admission 1 - 5pm
    Session 3 // General Admission 6 - 10pm — at UIC Forum.

    It was great meeting some of you tonight. Had a blast at my first FOBAB and my only disappointment was that our beer didn't last longer. Thanks for the very warm welcome and the encouraging feedback about our beers (WeldWerks).

    If anyone is going to be at either of tomorrow's sessions, please stop by and say hi. I'll be moving between the booths for both our beers (#394 Peach Climacteric in the annex with Wild Sour w/ Fruit & Cider/Mead/Perry and #101 Barrel Aged Mexican Achromatic).
