Spiteful Brewing: A Goddamn Delightful Day

Looking at the event poster it's likely the remaining bottles will just fly into the ether. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Still tickets available. This is actually amazing that an event, in Chicago for a limited hyped release, has not sold out. Ouch

 

Ticket was expensive, event was fun. They had a passion fruit working for the weekend on cask, vanilla god damn pigeon porter and Dumb Donald on tap. Everyone was friendly, Spiteful crew seemed excited to see everyone come out.

 

Any update on this event from someone who doesn't have a Spiteful avatar?

 

Really well run, and the beer was awesome. Choco caliente is amazing. The draft list was really nice, including Inigo Montoya from 5 rabbit that was really good. Super hot in the green lady and packed. I can't imagine there were that many more tickets available for the early session. Great time and glad I went.

 

Is any stuff left on tap?

 

I agree with lefty. Super well run, got in and out easily with limited wait time for beers. Not to mention the BAMCC is soooooo good. First time I tried it today and I was thinking where's the chocolate? Then bam, chocolate...amazing. My wife loved it as well! Great job spiteful!

 

Great beers on tap. BAMC tasted great. And how about those surprise Arthur pours?

 

Really enjoyed going, it was nice to get an included pour of ba gdpp, albeit small. The bamc was amazing and the taplist was top notch.

 

I blasted this event. And it was empty-ish in the later session. But the Spiteful guys were amazing and VERY appreciative of people coming out and supporting them. I can totally get behind that.

 

I also made it out to the event and was reserving judgement until afterwords. I had a great time even though a couple of friends who were supposed to go with me bailed and didn't buy tickets. The Spiteful staff was very friendly and personable and they did share some really cool bottles with people. I enjoyed some of their beers that I hadn't tried before and was pleasantly surprised with BA goddamn pigeon. I had a great time and I'm glad that I went.

 

I went to session A. It was a well run event by Spiteful Brewing and The Green Lady. Getting a free pour of the BA Pigeon Porter and Hill Farmstead Arthur were nice surprises. Getting your allotment was smooth. You could get it when you first walked in or at the end of the event or anytime in between and it was painless. Working for the Weekend with Passionfruit on cask was fantastic. Dumb Donald is pretty much the best lime beer I've ever had. Vanilla Pigeon Porter is tasty. Lots of other great beers on tap, too. And of course the beer everyone was there for, the BA Malevolence Chocolate Caliente was fantastic. Yes, it was hot in there, but not as bad as Northdown during the Lions, Tigers, and Beers event (that place was so hot, it forced us to leave). They did open up the huge windows and that made things better, though. Only thing missing from the event was Colin. I wanted to tell him that I dislike him LOL.

 

The event was very well run but still way overpriced. $8 for a 10-12 oz pour of working for the weekend with passion fruit on top of the ticket price was a little ridiculous.

Had fun but will not be attending another unless the price comes down.

 

I left kind of early in Session B. Did they give out pours of anything during hat session (like they did with Arthur in Session A)?

 

I was told they were doing pours of Arthur and Dorothy in Session B.

 

Have any of you used your Spiteful GDDD glassware yet? Any oddities with it??

 

Did yours fly away?

 

Yes

 

I had a friend who, out of 4 glasses, had 2 pretty badly chipped. Anyone else have the same issue? Spiteful posits that the glasses were supposed to be checked at the event, and won't exchange as a result

 

Who else scored tickets? That was a breeze. Seems like its still available.
