    Been thinking about it, but I have something Friday and Saturday already, so Sunday too might be pushing it. Sounds awesome though!

    This is the same day as the BA DH tasting so I don't think I'll be going

    I am going.

    I am surprised by how few of the tickets have been sold so far.

    Me too! I've been so busy lately that I didn't notice the event til yesterday. I went ahead and bought 3 tickets for me and some friends. I can't wait to taste some of the special beers they'll be rolling out.

    Some of the stuff they are going to have just sounds delicious. I am guessing that they will have more like 20 beers on tap than 15 from what I hear.

    But hell, I am quite content that it will be less crowded than crowded.

    Quick question and don't want to start a new thread. I've had 2 different 6 packs of Zoe lately that have had flat cans. As soon as I crack it I can tell its bad by the sound. Almost no pine scent I usually get and when I pour into a glass no matter how aggressive I'll get no head. It's still drinkable but not the great beer that Zoe usually is. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Yeah man, the same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. Two of the six cans were flat. You could definitely tell that the flavor was off.

    Edit: It could have possibly been caused by them being mishandled by the store? I bought the six pack at the Specs on Bay Area.

    Nope, my brother brought some down from Austin with the same problem. 2 out of the 6. Shitty thing is I just send some as extras in 2 different trades. I hope they get good ones so it doesn't look like I'm sending shit in the back of my fridge.
