    Last time I went was also in 2013, that was a ridiculously awesome event. Brett Porter walking around with free pours of Rare, King Henry, and Bramble was unexpected to say the least. Last night didn't really have any huge surprises but was a great time none the less. Many thanks to Chris and rest of the South Loop crew!

    I still prefer the previous years, before Prop and the insane hype and all that jazz. $1 pints of ice cream to make BCBS & Big John floats. It was amazing.

    This was my exact thinking...I preferred the Randall to the VR due to it seeming more balanced. Perhaps the cherries made that happen.
