    yes, we're gonna get our Lone Star on and jam some radars with that sweet sweet raspberry. I have a few bottles of raspberry-fucked beer and i'd like to organize a share with some others that have some solid raspberry goods. i'd prefer to do this on a weekend, ideally somewhere up north (Bridgetown, Tin Bucket, possibly my house - i'd like to meet all parties beforehand if that's the case) but i'm not married to any particular location.

    Things I can contribute:
    Raspberry Truffle Abduction
    Lindley Park
    Bramble
    Framboise White
    Atrial Rubicite
    FFaC b2/3/4
    i may also have a growler of Pizza Boy Raspberry Sour which is pretty damn good

    let me know if you're interested!

    Wow that sounds awesome. I don't have any raspberry beers to bring but I'd be happy bring snacks or some other palate cleansing beers.

    I really enjoy raspberry beers and you have several good ones on your list. So yes, interested, but I would prefer later in October given vacation plans (we don't get back to Oregon until 10/19).

    looking at the calendar, the weekends of the 4th/5th or the 26th/27th are best for me.

    I'm always interested in a bottle share, though like Dale I'll be out of town the 4th/5th (taking my kid to brick.con Lego festival in Seattle). I don't have a ton of raspberry in the cellar but a quick peek gives

    Oakshire Framboise
    Laurelwood Framboise (batch 1 and 2)
    Kuhnhenn Raspberry Eisbock
    3 Floyds BA Alpha Klaus w/ Raspberry

    I'll have to root around for raspberry beers too... I'm sure I must have some... I think at this point any weekend but the 19/20 works for me, but these things are liable to change between now and then.

    You need an El Catador member in on this, latest 110K+OT is a raspberry stout. :-)

    Definitely interested. I don't have much for Raspberry beers right now. Maybe an Omen and have the Atrial coming my way. Maybe by then I can find a few more.

    I got the RdG and probably something else that fits the bill in the cellar, if you end up doing it on a Sunday.

    let's say Sunday the 27th as a tentative date, leaning towards Tin Bucket for location. i've talked to them about hosting in the past, we can lock something down as more details unfold.

    looks like this is coming up in a few weeks. i talked to the guys at Tin Bucket a week ago and they are more than happy to have us show up on a Sunday evening, probably around 5ish. we should probably get a spreadsheet or something going...

    Ohh what do you know, I just received a suitable beer in a certain BIF that approximately 30% of the potential attendees are also involved in.

    Is this going to be STRICTLY raspberry beers or are the raspberry beers just going to be the main focus? I think it would be good to have some change of pace beers, as most raspberry beers are going to be sours. I'm good with whatever, though.

    I can bring the '12 FfaC and a Rose De Gambrinus (have to check on the vintage).

    this will be mostly raspberry - people can feel free to bring anything they want to share. also, if you don't have anything raspberry or anything you feel is share-worthy, buying a bottle or growler of something at Tin Bucket and sharing is A-OK and encouraged.
