    From their website.

    Can you believe that it’s already been a year. It’s gone by so fast yet so much has happened. And we have shared many wonderful brews together. Now, I’m not popping the question or anything, but don’t you think we should celebrate. The Houston beer community has shown real support for and appreciation of the craft beer offerings, the Mud Turtle Club, and chef Antoine Ware’s kitchen. To say Thank You, Hay Merchant will be throwing a party to celebrate our first year. We will be tapping some of our coolest stuff from our cellar to say thank you to all of our favorite folks.

    Here is just a few of the special beers: 6point 3Beans, Dogfish Head 120 2012, Dogfish Head Midas Touch, Dogfish Head Noble Rot, Great Divide Old Ruffian, Stone Vertical Epic 8,10 and 11, Stone Saison Du BUFF, Jester King RU-55 (Cask), Jester King El Cedro, Real Ale Scots Gone Wild, Karbach BBA Hellfighter 2012 (Batch #1), Brooklyn Monster 2008, Real Ale Highlander 2012, Avery Kaiser 2012, Harpoon Leviathan Quad 2011, Karbach BBA Rodeo Clown (Cask), Karbach WBA Krunkin Pumpkin (Cask), Unibroue Trois Pistoles 2011, Sierra Nevada Ovila Quad w/ Sugar Plums, Victory Helios, Great Divide Espresso Oak Aged Yeti Imperial Stout, Real Ale Empire 2012, Harpoon Leviathan Czernobog and Southern Star BBA Buried Hatchet 2010 (The WORLD’S VERY LAST BARREL of Batch #1).

    And I almost Forgot, the first 100 people here that day will receive a free commemorative glass. So, don’t be late.

    Anyone want to make this interesting and see if they'll host a bottle share? Or would that be too absurd?

    I think if we do it early enough before shit gets stupid busy it would be fine. I'll ask the appropriate sources when I'm there tonight and report back.
