The date for Boise’s premier bottle share and tasting is set for April 11th. We realize this date cannot work for everyone, but unfortunately it is what works for the vast majority of the folks involved and the organizers.



Tom Charter has graciously volunteered to host the fun and debauchery once again. We will not be posting the address in this thread. When the time comes if you still don’t know the location, message me or buckeyeboy for address.



Most of you know the drill.. Please bring 1-?? bottles (growlers and/or kegs are also accepted) of some big stout that you want to share. Food to share with the crowd is also encouraged.



Please come hydrated and with a belly full of food. Definitely have a plan on getting home SAFELY. Walk, take a cab, call Buddies, arrange an Uber, a friend with a rickshaw, etc, but drunk driving is severely frowned upon. If you drive drunk, you won’t ever be invited back. Don’t be stupid and don’t endanger yourself and your friends.



To prevent too much overlap of bottles showing up at the tasting, a spreadsheet will soon be posted.

Should be an epic event as always. Thanks to Tom for hosting it once again.

Finally... Figured out how to post a video.

This is what to expect.

That growler was not barley browns but instead was mephistophelis that Chris brought. How that got cashed, I have no idea. I would also say it has grown exponentially the last couple of years.

You weren’t here this year. This is the year before you knew about us.

A bunch. I bet 20ish... Maybe even more. But there will be plenty of food, so don’t feel like you need to make enough for a meal for 20 people... People graze the whole time.

I like to maka da pork, depending on the size of the shoulder it will make 20+ servings easy. Probably more. Could serve it on triscuits and it will go a loooong way.

That spreadsheet gonna be posted soon?
