The first weekend of Saturnalia MMVI has concluded.

I was pleased to see the two new NABC beers, Bonfire of the Valkyries and Naughty Claus, so well received by patrons. Of the remaining starters, hardest hit probably has been Mahr’s Christmas Bock, N'Ice Chouffe and Three Floyds Alpha Klaus Xmas Porter.

Several patrons asked for comments about the projected rotation schedule, but it's difficult to say how the second wave will unfold. Numerous listed selections are yet to be delivered, and just as many may or may not make the trip. It's been a difficult procurement cycle. The good news is that plenty of quality beers will be on hand for tapping my the middle of next week.
