    A little slow to the draw, but did anybody in the RI area happen to go to the beer fest at grey sail this last sunday? If so.. what were your favorites, or worsts? I am just interested in what people are thinking about what all the RI guys are doing these days.

    Considering they only brought one offering that's a false truth, won't argue the stalk dipa they brought was great

    Grey Sail > everyone else at the fest; the Dark Star with Cherries and Peach Sour with Watermelon were the MVPs. Also enjoyed Trinity's Belgian Strawberry. Stalk was delicious but I enjoyed Great Ketch more, and I really wish Proclamation had brought something new, like that Harper 2 they made a big deal about bringing to Zwanze. This fest was fun, but mostly it only whetted my appetite for BEERVANA!

    I agree with great ketch, I love that beer. Only shitty part is having to go there for fills since they don't have the capacity to can

    They need to stop making so much Flying Jenny and Flagship, they just collect dust on shelves and take up tank space at the brewery.

    I'll agree with you on flagship, but will have to disagree with the Jenny, that's a good pale ale
