    Great time last night. Nice meeting everyone and look forward to the next time. The Beer Hive was a great host and it was awesome of them to let us do that on a Friday night.

    Ok, so what was the belle of the ball? Who brought home best in show? There were 5 that really stood out to me. I didn't have a "bad" beer in the lot, aside from that god awful atrocity that @thebouch01 brought.

    Ones that stood out in a very good crowd (to me):

    Voodoo's Grande Negro Voodoo Papi (Laird's Apple Brandy)
    New Glarus Raspberry Tart
    Jackie O's Oro Negro
    The Alchemist Focal Banger
    Hanger 24 Barrel Roll #3 Pugachev's Cobra

    What did you all love?

    For stouts the Hanger24 Pugachev's Cobra took the cake.
    For sours I really liked the Stop, Collaborate and Glisten
    IPA was Focal Banger

    Honorable mentions go to:
    The Light & Dark Synths
    CW16
    The home brew IPA

    Scorpion beer was awesome. A whole bottle would be hard to drink but a couple of ounces were great.

    I thought the Jackie O's growler stole the show for me. That stuff was awesome. So many good sours too.

    Looking forward to the next one.

    Thanks guys. If you combine the words Flora and Anna, you almost get Florence right?

    So was going through my notes from this tasting, and am having trouble identifying 2 beers. For one, I just have westbrook ipa, was this citrus ninja? And barely legal barleywine but not the Brewer. Looks like there are a few barleywines called barely legal. Thanks in advance for the help!
