Instagram post 2195936497194911850_295998118 I know #winteriscoming and we're all pulling on flannel pajamas and disemboweling tauntauns to keep warm, but might I suggest an @urgegastropub heat lamp and a  @karlstraussbeer 30th anniversary rum barrel-aged RIS to achieve the same ends?

Instagram post 2192262914610384677_295998118 Let's pretend for a minute that you have beef with @burgeonbeer . Maybe they got promoted first at work or,  more likely,  they stole your girl. Even if that was the case, you should take one look at this anniversary invitational lineup and be inclined to forgive the past.  Plus, event proceeds will benefit @sdbrewers . I also have it on good authority that @cheesmanian will be there as a celebrity guest to sign babies and kiss autograph books!

Instagram post 2188952076659129188_295998118 The collaboration Blank Slate TIPA from @secondchancebeer & @ninkasibrewing has a boastful citrus presence and considerable chew to it,  but still finishes dry.  It's dangerously crushable at 10.2%. .

Instagram post 2173052986914077103_295998118 If you're like me, at one point or another you've snapped out of a dead sleep, swathed in cold sweat, terrified at the realization that the 2013 Stone Oak-Smoked Old Guardian Barley Wine Aged in Bourbon barrels may have started to fall off. I'm pleased to report it hasn't. And the reason I know that it's because I am currently at the @stonebrewing DRK Festival. Crisis averted.
