Just don't like it for IPAs.  They're better colder and with some carbonation.  IMO it only works well for stuff like stouts and porters.  To each their own I guess.

Free growler of Cane -n- Ebel if someone can swing by my place between 6:30 and 7:30 tonight.

It's already in the growler and in my fridge.  I have too much left over and won't be able to drink it.  First come, first serve.

That's one way of looking at it ... or we could just both agree that you are wrong.

Anything going on tonight??

[thewimperoo]

It's really short notice and I don't think anyone really lives out here but I figured I would give it a shot anyways.  I have to take my wife's car up to Algonquin to get fixed and was going to hang out at the Barley House while I waited.  I should be there around 2:30 if anyone wants to meet up and have a pint.  PM me and I'll give you my cell.

Goose Monthly Gathering this Thursday. Be there or be square.

June 5th, Saturday, is the German pub crawl from NorthCenter to Lincoln Square. From talking to folks it sounds like there will be a decent turnout. Starting at Laschetts at 1:30 (2119 W Irving Park). Don't eat beforehand because Laschetts, Glunz, and Bad Apple all have good grub.
