Any chance to get KY Bourbon Barrel Ale in on the voting ballot?
It has become common throughout GH each year to insert a few beers that were late and didn't make the "official" list, or weren't available, or what not. We might easily do so with the BBA. What is the abv?
average abv of 8.2%
So no breakfast stouts, even at the opening breakfast? Quite dissapointing.
Tough crowd, LOL ... Dragon's Milk will just have to do this year.
Jeremy: We can insert a keg somewhere during the run. Where to purchase?
Also, both NABC's Oaktimus and IX Anniversary join the lineup as starters (I will update later).
I have to say that the C2 was my favorite last night. I should have come on Friday so that I could have tasted the De Proef though!!
