| _____________________________ [Mar 7,2011 3:19pm - Yeti ""] nice. i'll be doing this before the show. too bad Wormtown beer isn't very good at all. |
| __________________________________________ [Mar 7,2011 3:35pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] i like wormtown's blonde cougar ale. |
| ________________________________ [Mar 7,2011 3:51pm - reimroc ""] somebody better introduce a metal themed beer called "do a ritual" or i will be severely disappointed. |
| __________________________________________ [Mar 7,2011 4:51pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] NO U |
| ________________________________ [Mar 7,2011 7:31pm - scmfck ""] wormtown beers taste like fairly mediocre craft beers that someone watered down and then served....through dirty lines. |
| ________________________________ [Mar 7,2011 7:34pm - RustyPS ""] a beer festival before a pot festival? dangerous would be an understatement |

| _______________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 1:18am - josh_hates_you ""] hmm $25 to get into a sub par beer fest that most likely wont have any free beer beyond a few samples. no thanks. seemed like a good idea till i read who was gonna be there for brewers. LOL at the "craft brewers" listed for this event. weaksauce. |
| ______________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:06am - ark ""] there's enough good brewers to make me want to go, but they don't seem to be out front about the beer you would be able to drink...which means it won't be much. |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:07am - c00t dad ""] omg u like beer? |
| ___________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:08am - FuckIsMySignature ""] my friend is actually helping put this together. i'll forward her any suggestions you guys have to make this a better festival. |
| ______________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:21am - ark ""] for the $25 admission i'd like some ALMOST FREE BEER! |
| ___________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:22am - FuckIsMySignature ""] i want completely free beer |
| ________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:36am - josh_hates_you ""] Berkshire Brewing Company, D L Geary Brewing Company, Long Trail Brewing Company,Otter Creek Brewing Company, Shipyard Brewing Company, Sierra Nevada, Smuttynose Brewing Company this is the list for me. some of the others are ok if there is nothing else at that particular store/bar. problem is all of this stuff is readily available everywhere. nothing out of the ordinary for a beer snob like myself. there are tons of new things here for a Budweiser drinker to try out. If all of these companies had a spring/summer offering for sample at this event it might start to make it a little more appealing. lately i have been drinking Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout, BBC Coffeehouse Porter, Young's Double Chocolate Stout, Troegs Brothers Java Head Stout and HopBack Amber Ale |
| ___________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:40am - FuckIsMySignature ""] i've only had a sip of that Brooklyn Black Chocolate. fucking delicious |
| ________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:51am - josh_hates_you ""] delicious and dangerous at 10% only getting lost and taking 2 hours to walk home from a bar I live 7 minutes away from is real........... |
| ______________________________ [Mar 8,2011 10:51am - ark ""] haha |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 11:02am - Alx_Casket ""] I am confused. What does the $25 admission get you? |
| ___________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 11:09am - FuckIsMySignature ""] theres a FB event link. i suggest posting questions on there. |
| ______________________________ [Mar 8,2011 11:35am - ark ""] I DON'T KNOW WHAT A FB EVENT LINK IS. I WANT BEEER |
| ________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 11:35am - josh_hates_you ""] ark said:I DON'T KNOW WHAT A FB EVENT LINK IS. I WANT BEEER "like" |
| ___________________________________________ [Mar 8,2011 11:40am - FuckIsMySignature ""] then go to the liquor store and get some |
| ______________________________ [Mar 8,2011 11:43am - ark ""] money can be used to purchase goods and services. |
| ____________________________________________ [Apr 19,2011 12:31pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] playing at 5:30 if anyone is interested. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 19,2011 2:00pm - arktouros ""] double header for you, good man. |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 19,2011 4:26pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] ya i'm gonna be a mess by the end but it'll be totally worth it. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 19,2011 4:29pm - josh_hates_you ""] you only get 10 drink tickets to this then additional tickets may be purchased. lame. the one in providence was all you can drink. |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 19,2011 4:31pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] ya i know. it is what it is. theres other things going at this event besides just the beer tasting. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 19,2011 4:56pm - Slag NLI ""] There were only a few breweries @ this to interest me. Too pricey. |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 19,2011 5:09pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] completely understandable. only doin this for band exposure. Julio's beer tastings ftw. |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 25,2011 1:16pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] This was a great time despite being loosely run for the first year. I think next years will be much better though. Still was packed and we got a play for a very receptive audience. Also free beer! [img] |
