Introducing Light Mode! If you would like a Bar Towel social experience that isn't the traditional blue, you can now select Light Mode. Go to the User Control Panel and then Board Preferences, and select "Day Drinking" (Light Mode) from the My Board Style drop-down menu. You can always switch back to "Night Drinking" (Dark Mode). Enjoy!

NOT AT ALL like the ones I've had in the past, perhaps just a bad batch, or someone was sleeping on the job. Hopefully it's only a few, because the ones that were good are REALLY good....
Ed at the Black Creek Historic Brewery said they did have a bit of problem with the first batch that was breweed. (But I'm surprised there's still some around). maybe that's what happened.
He also said Trafalger brews 75% of the beer and Flying Monkeys brews the other 25% with Trafalger heat pastuerizing and F.M. using sterile filtartion...
