It was a great time, with a lot of great beers and a bunch of people who love good beer. There were a few beers that made me happy to only have a two oz pour, due to either excessive sweetness (maltiness) or severe alcohol heat. Mostly, though, there were a lot of beers that were just plain tasty.

Wish I could have gone. But work called.

Anyway, hold onto those Belgians. They are finally starting to carb. It was "suggested" that I might have a medal winner with that one.

I am going to let them sit for another month before I crack the next one. The last I had, that was starting to finally carb tasted a whole lot different then the one I had before that and while it was still a little flat.
