    We're switching some stuff up. Due to the craziness of October (Springfield Fresh Hop Fest, Little Woody Festival, Wildcraft Harvest Festival, Fall MBAA), we are pushing Single Batch Festival to December 10th. Yes we are throwing an outdoor festival in December. That also means that we are going to push Hellshire to mid-May and hopefully avoid some rain this year. So there you go. Cheers guys!

    Agrarian Ales Hop Picking Party August 26-28 / September 2-4
    Agrarian will have a special beer to provide its hop pickers while they pick this year's harvest to be used in wet hop beers and future batches of their Farmhouse inspired beers.

    Anybody hitting up the Bier Stein Invitational this weekend? I've had a chance to taste some of the beers that will be there and so far this is going to be a treat! I'll be working a booth from 3-6 then attending for the last 2 hours. Anyone want to do a meet up?

    Here is the official list of beers for the Bier Stein Invitational tomorrow. Looks like there are more than a few not-so-rare-as-they-were-supposed-to-be beers on the list but a lot of other really good one-offs and specialty beers. Wish there was a little more info on some of these beers since they are one-offs you can't just look some of them up to find out more. @AlesongMatt any info you can provide on the Jolene and Amarillo Sky?

    Sweet! Have you talked to Aaron about what booth you will be pouring from? I'm trying to get on at Alesong or ColdFire

    The Rustic Saison from ColdFire is Pinot Noir aged with 3 Brett strains... one happens to be mine...

    Good deal... does that mean you get to drink before your shift? I can't have beer until after my shift is over. Hoping that all the great stuff is still there...

    We're still not supposed to drink, probably because we'll need to be on the lookout anyone who is too drunk. Likewise, hoping there is still good stuff to be had at 6!

    Justin. If you try no other beer at this event, don't miss out on the pfreim blabaer. I've been impressed by pretty much all the wild ale sours from pfreim, but the blabaer is the best one yet I've had from them. Have fun.

    Anyone heard if this one will see bottles like Peche, Oude Kriek, and Frambozen?
