Brewfest trip report w/pics (and I met [censored])

[wiper]

that 'beer store' picture is awesome...

wish we had something like this around me. we have that rolling rock festival that's only 2 hours or so away, but i'd rather have a 'taste-test' type deal...

Nolanfan,

Great report. Did you get to try the Elysian brew? What was it like?

[/ QUOTE ]

I didn't. They ran out for the day before I had a chance to try it.

They ran out of a lot of beers. Is that always how it is? (I was a Brewfest rookie, remember.) It was horrible to see stations pouring the Hooligan crap after running out of their own good beer.

yeah late in the day this happens. You have to get there around 1 or 2 to really have an opportunity to try a lot of beers. Remember when we cut in line? Thats classic.

Watermelon whatever: Very good beer, not sweet, nice taste and the watermelon aftertaste was good.

Watermelon beer? Wow. If you or anyone else remembers who made it, could you post or PM? I'd love to find it.

Everyone has to bring the same amount of beer. Pretty lame rule, imo.

Yeah, TSC's philosophy was, "We're big dudes. We can pretty much do whatever the hell we want." And it worked.

(Which is good, because I don't think either of us knows how to fight.)

I had a really good time meeting everyone even though I hate beer and still hate that foul tasting [censored].

Ms. Nolanfan was especially helpful by being on the constant look out for hot chicks.

next year I will bring a flask.
