Random Thoughts from Year two of the Newest Cool Thing Added to Nebraskaland Days:
- They checked ID's but let my 6 month old son in.
- The Free Glass they gave me said "Beamish Genuine Irish Stout." That beer wasn't included in the tasting.
- Big Sky Brewing Company (Missoula, Montana) was highly represented. About half of the 20 or so beers there were from this Brewery. None of them were any good--perhaps you've tasted "Moose Drool"?
- JW Dundee's Honeybrown was one of the featured beers--seemed to be a big hit. Is this even a "microbrew"?
- My favorite was probably Sierra Nevada's Summer Ale. A nice Ale without too much "Summer" added. Breckenridge Brewery's "Summerbright" was not as good--bad aftertaste.
- Drank beer with the Assistant Superintendent and HS Principal. Wish I could remember all of the cliches and bad jokes.
- Zach Linstedt (sp?) and Shayna Dunn (sp?) were there.
- People were pissed that they didn't get full beers.
- Lifehouse plays tomorrow. Hope they play "Hanging By a Moment." I should bring a lighter.

Wow. Sounds like a whale of a time. Next year, maybe we'll get you a "brews n booze" press pass. THEN, maybe you'll get full beers.
I share the same opinion about all of Breckenridge's beers. They always disappoint me and I can't understand why an operation with such a sweet facility and that mountain town "it" factor just continues to brew nasty crap. Maybe its the altitude. Or the Chinese.
I'm probably in the minority here, but I don't get the appeal of honeybrown. Also, nasty crap, in my opinion.
jw dundee's used to be the shit back when we were underclassmen at the university hitting up the $1 mug night at the old chicago. i did see it used as the secret winning weapon in a shotgun contest vs. other american light domestics during the super bowl however...
it's sweet and easy without alot of substance, which is why it probably won't get more than a one night stand or occasional booty call from serious beer nerds.
