Freestate burnt

#1 Post by Blktre » Sun Oct 05, 2008 6:42 pm

The offsight brewery burnt pretty good this morning. Most of the fire was where the actual Widmer gear etc was at. The building was saved, but were waiting for a damage report, which don't look to good right now...

1. When a once extraordinarily hoppy beer now seems pedestrian.
2. The phenomenon a person has when craving more bitterness in beer.
3. The long-term exposure to extremely hoppy beers; if excessive or prolonged, a habitual dependence on hops will occur.
4. When a "Double IPA" just is not enough

This is probably the time to bring up that the club should just buy another tent, or two, and be set for all of our activities that we'll have in the future. one less thing to worry about, and one more thing to be to be content about. sorry about that.
