Olde Hickory Omega Point Release

[brother_kenneth]

Didn't see a thread about this so I thought I may as well throw something out there. Any TB folks planning to make the trip? Should be an easy release and the beer sounds great. Fingers crossed it will be as tasty as Blendiculous 1 was! Hope to see some friends there. I'm planning to roll in Friday evening for the special taps and bottle share. The info is shown on the flyer below. Cheers!

There's a chance I might make it up. Certainly pumped about the beer. Hopefully bottles will be able to be scored without arms/legs necessary

 

[JohnnyNC1]

I'll be there not sure if I'm heading up Fri or Sat though

ISO. Will trade a blendiculous #1 if necessary.

I am trying to go on Saturday but my original ride changed his mind to going down Friday.

 

[JulianB1]

Good chance I'll be there. I'm pouring beer at a festival that day in Ft. Mill which is only an hour away, so that should leave plenty of time to do both. Lots up in the air for the next two weeks in terms of plans but I'm hoping to make it.

Sounds like a real *******.

You have no idea but he is always changing his mind and running off to bottle releases on a whim. On the other hand he can be very generous in his sharing of said beer so I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

 

[JulianB1]

I'll be there Friday and there's room for up to 2 more people in my hotel room (pending a few outstanding invitations) if anyone wants a place to crash.

Sounds good.

Anyone have any recommendations for good breakfast spots in Hickory?

 

[elbrooksie]

Hit me up if anyone wants to trade a bottle or two

You have a remaining Blendiculous No. 1 (maybe my favorite barleywine ever). Noted!

 

[CruisaC]

So for real if anyone is going and NOT getting their full allotment I will happily pay + label + thankyou box TBD for as many bottles as possible.

Cheers.

 

[JohnnyNC1]

Yeah sorry I missed you man, I had to split faster than I would have liked. Needed to get down to Ft Mill for a festival I was working later that day, where I proceeded to get massively sunburned (ours was one of the only booths not covered by a tent). Did get to drink a ton of CBS for free though! Good chance I'll head up to WW for Red Angel.
