February 21st at 5pm, Big Hops Gastropub will be tapping of Canadian Breakfast Stout. Founder's will be here and you should be as well! We will also be featuring a few other selections as well as the official REINTRODUCTION of Black Rye to the San Antonio area! See y'all at the Big Hops!
Just curious what people thought about this event.....I think my buddy said they were serving 12 oz pours....
12 oz pour for $14. Pretty costly IMO but if the demand is there I guess you can't blame them. Keg tapped out in just under 15 minutes. From what I saw, most people who were there got a pour...only a few did not. I showed at 4:50 and got one and the place was pretty packed by the time I arrived (tapped at 5). They also tapped Black Rye as well as some of their other staples (Centennial, Porter, Imperial Stout,etc)
Unfortunately I wish they had run it a bit differently. I know people who were there prior to 430 and didn't receive a pour even though people who showed up later did (i got there around 4 and got one of the last pours). No kind of order what so ever, just depended on where you sat and who was serving you. They needed to implement so some of number system. Most people did get a pour, and the beer was delicious. Always will be a few left out and upset, but sucks when those people were there first.
depends i got 2 tulips of CBS in houston at different bars for 9 and 10 dollars. another bar in houston a full pint of KBS was 24. if you haven't had it before 14 dollars isn't bad for a 12oz pour of CBS
Wow....talk about jacking up the price for KBS....prob not a bar I'd be going back to if they rake customers over like that.
I couldn't believe they were doing full 12 oz pours lol, I got there at 2:30 ( one of the first people there ) to have lunch and a couple beers and "get in line", and that damn near didn't work, luckily the bartender spotted us... 8 oz pours and a numbering system next time...
Yeah agree...obviously I'm loving that I got one but not fair to people who arrived before me and didn't.
For the record, it was 13 minutes. And I do believe those glasses hold 13oz, since they were filled to the brim! God, it was good!
