Das Goldschprintz
The Ergon Blog has as great recap, so I’ll just fill in a few parts not noted over there:
- I tried a brown ale that had been dry hopped and it was darn good. Nutty and malty up front with a nice hoppy finish. Not sure what the availability will be, but I’ll check with my man on the scene this week.
- I could not lose…..even though I really wanted to more than once. I tried going one legged a few times to throw it, but still managed to win the round. At one point I thought I lost, went and ate a brat and was immediately called back up. I managed to keep the brat down….barely.
- My legs hurt for days. The drive up to MI was brutal. My legs ached all the way. My right leg was particularly sore. Let this act as the official excuse for feeling a little flat at Lumberjack.
- The event was awesome and I hope we do more of this for Ergon.
- Georgia beer laws are lame. I’m a big boy and those serving us were big boys and girls, we don’t need a church infulenced state making up silly laws for “our own good.” Especially when these laws are unbalance compared to those concerning wine. Lighten up GA and we’ll have some more breweries, ie tax revenue.
