    Mr. Biscuits is an experimental ale --that's all I know.

    Do we know what time bottles will be on sale that day? I remember it being a few hours before the pub opened for the party last year.

    Probably gonna skip this year, since I want to (hopefully) see Municipal Waste at DLD. Past few years have been a blast, though.

    Let's just hope that Double Hangin' Frank is better than Aww Jeah. Really wish I didn't buy a half a case of that last year.

    Protip: Try the beer on tap before buying your case.

    Aww Jeah is a fantastic beer, IMO. However, your Protip is a good idea for pretty much any beer.

    Yeah I made two mistakes that day: buying a half case of Aww Jeah and getting 8 bombers of Dark Lord. That was a LONG day.

    Loved Aww Jeah and I'm hoping Controversius Maximus is as good or better.

    Mr. Biscuits: A reddish brown American ale layered with biscuity malt characteristics, fruity yeast esters, and slight nutty aromas. Light grain flavors and a red apple sweetness provide a distinct tang before a dry bready finish.

    Definetly going with a group, but we need a spot to throw down some sleeping bags. Any problems with sleeping in the parking lot or is there a park nearby???

    I would definitely not sleep in a parking lot. I don't know if you've ever been to Bellaire but the county jail is right down the street from "downtown"--I'm sure there will be cops patrolling the area. I would check local campgrounds or chip in and get a hotel room.

    I see Craven park just East of town, should only be a one mile walk.
