    It's only about a month away. Any news on events or goings on yet? Calendar on the website is blank.

    I'm hoping as this week progresses in the second year, so do the beer and the events. Not much to write home about last year unfortunately.

    This is the third year. Most of the brewers have said or hinted on what they are doing for the collab beers, just saw voodoo is doing a big Ipa h2p. They also are going to have some ba kegs at the house from what I've saw on twitter.

    HTP was awesome last time they had it, this time it sounds like it might be better!

    nothing to write home about? i though some stuff last year was incredible. I went to a founders event that had Carmudgeons Better Half, KBS, and Bolt Cutter. Then another event that had verticals of dogfish head world wide stout. I also went to an event that had some amazing rare voodoo stuff on tap. I'm a pretty big fan of this craft beer week so far and hope this year can equal or better last year

    Yeah, I'm assuming since it's a collab with a movie theater...

    Not sure how much a growler fill is.

    Third year already. Man, maybe I'll finally get to go to an event this time around (who am I kidding, I work in hospitality; no such thing as a night off).

    According to their Facebook, it's going to be hoppy. I believe they mentioned Mosaic.
