Should be a fun event, at least a few special/one-off/launch beers.

And for those who missed out, I'm sure most of the beers will still be on at 5 when the doors swing open wide (well, depending on number of patrons, as they've sold to their capacity, 80).
Also, someone might have an extra ticket...
Are there a couple extras floating around? Becky and I were floating the idea of going, but hadn't picked up tickets yet. We'd likely go if there are some extras within the group.

I wanted to go but my drinking partner couldn't make up her mind in time. If anyone who does go doesn't want to keep the glass I'd be interested in acquiring it (cash, trade, gratitude, whatever). It doesn't even have to be full.

They may have extra glasses for sale. Check with them, and maybe you can get some after the doors open at 5. If they are regular glasses you can get them anytime. If they were a special run for this event, they must have had to order more than 80.

It looks like the glassware for this is indeed custom. http://instagram.com/p/jPbBm7KAGv/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thanks to a combined effort between Rubbertoe and Chris from Stillwell, we were able to get a couple tickets for this event. Thanks to both! :cheers2:

After five hours drinking quality craft brew, I had to high tail it home to grill up an epic steak supper. Given the choice, I'd find a way to get back downtown to properly finish iFf the evening!

Great to see everyone, had a great time. maybe a bit too much fun :spilly:
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.
