Beer plans for the rest of the summer?

I'm going to drink down some of my cellar. Included in these plans are a RARE, Kate the Great '08, Seared Palate, a few Chocolate Rains and Black Tuesdays, BCBCS, Allagash FV13, '11 Darkness, and some others.

Wish me luck!!!

 

Let's see: Tasting thisThursday, Bus tour of Maine breweries on Friday and a Saison beerfest in July. Oh and a thingie next week that I can't remember but will have to wake up early to get to.

 

Thanks for the idea. Unfortunately regarding stopping there, I'm traveling with 2 under-21 boys who aren't allowed inside.

 

Going to Colorado and covering most of the state hopefully.

 

I don't make long term plans.. but I do plan on going to Beer and Bluegrass fest at north star at truckee. Should be fun I guess. Says it has about 20 breweries going. but I suspect it means they'll have kegs from them, not literally booths from them...

 

Any John Barleycorn?

 

July: Societe Anniversary Party and Alpine run on 7/13. Two weeks later, up to Big Sur for a camping trip with a cooler full of Heady.
August: SF birthday weekend with trips to RR and Lagunitas.

 

Vt trip last week, heading up to The Festival in Portland this weekend. Just bought a serious brew kit and double tap kegerator. Wife is getting a little annoyed, but it's all good.

 

I will do at least 2 more trips to 3F's . 3 hour drive.

 

We know that we're doing something; the issue is deciding which of the five bajillion things to do and when to do them and how they correlate/work with all of our other plans.

For example- We want to visit and explore Richmond. It's only two hours away and yet... how is it so difficult to plan a trip to? Why must real life obligations complicate my beer life obligations?

 

Just got back from my vacation, and I'm about to move in about a week to Missouri. Here are the highlights:

Right Brain (have no idea why it's upside down...), then had Filling Station (also Traverse City, MI) later that day.


The highlight - my first visit here:


And then on the way back home, decided to stop here as well:


I'm going to miss you Michigan...
