I don't know about Alesmith, but Stone is almost certainly family friendly. It's a really big restaurant type thing. Lost Abbey is pretty much just an area of the brewery with a bar, no food, chairs, or anything like that. Alpine is a bit more family-friendly since it's got a sit down area and chair...

Nowhere in Canada. Chicago gets some Port and Lost Abbey stuff, though I haven't seen Older Visc. there. Not sure what their distro is like otherwise.

Old Viscosity is pretty good. The small bottles of expensive Lost Abbey sours and interesting stuff (Angel's Share, Cuvee de Tomme) have a long history of being totally flat. And their customer service is shit so they won't refund you or anything. I avoid their stuff, generally.

Cantillon 100% Kriek
RR Supplication
Jester King Farmhouse Black Metal

...then Amsterdam Blonde and Glenlivet 12. Why is Blonde such a terrible beer from such a great brewery? Confuse.

Peche is coming back



Thought this deserved its own thread. Woohoo! I can drink my last one from 2011 without fear that there won't be more.

DDC Herbe a D'etourne: still solid, nice hit of Citra, though I'd like to try this fresh at some point.
GI Matilda: not one of the best of the GI Belgians. Maltier, bready, not much brett. Maybe should have let it sit for a bit.

Boneshaker
Amsterdam Oktoberfest, ordered at Smokeless Joes, which continues to go somewhat downhill and be out of 6-7 beers every time I go.

I think it's reasonable to understand that things are limited quantity, especially at a cask beer festival. It's not like session 1 tickets sold out immediately and nobody got a chance to buy them. Session 3, to me, carries an inherent risk of not getting to try everything that was there at session 1.

Not sure if you saw, but they did offer 10$ back or 10$ more in tokens for any people who went Sunday.
