Winter Brews Fest: Post if you're attending

[The Chadd]

I'll be there, only about a ten minute BART ride for me.
Anyone know if Pliny the Younger will be on tap? Supposed to be released early February. . .

Unless they pulled some strings (very possible), the release date is 2/5, just in time for The Bistro's Dipa Fest on the 6th.

Yeah, I was going to mention that too, I'll be there as well. Turning out to be a good month for beer!

In the last interview w/Vinny they mention the beer that the Winter Fest is getting somewhere in there I recall... the conversation got diverted when Vinny was giving props to the BNA for buying the beer instead of only taking donations.

I wish it were PTYounger, but that stuff is like gold and is selling for $4.5/per 10oz glass.. A keg has 1984 ounces, so with 198-10oz servings @ $4.5 a pop that is a keg of gold @ $891... dang! Don't think the BNA is buying that keg to share

Can't wait to try this years PTY out... either at RR itself or at the DIPA Fest

I think Vinnie said Rejection, the Belgian Inspired Black Beer they brew for Valentine's Day.

I'm in

I didn't realize the Trappist was so close to Linden St! Mayhaps that would make a decent venu to crash after the fest?

It is close and it is defiantly worth checking out.

It's on the way back to BART, so it's a likely pitstop.

Where is everyone staying?? any after parties at any of the brew pubs??

[BrewTa2]

There's no "official" after party. Several of us are at the Parc 55 in SF and we'll be going back by BART. I imagine we'll make a stop at The Trappist, then invade SF. We'll reconnoiter at the end of the fest and go from there.

Can't wait!
