    Summer Shandy is in a class all by itself along with Spotted Cow. :)

    Berrywise I used to like alot but its very sweet. Mix a honeywise and a berrywise together and that's pretty good. ;)

    Sunset Wheat is my favorite beer ever. In the whole world.
    I remember last summer I carried two six-packs of Leinies out to the East Coast as a "thank you" to some of the people who hooked me up with tickets/rides... only to realize it was on tap EVERYWHERE.
    So you never know.. might be in Chicago too. I know that New Glarus is expanding too...

    Canned Food Drive
    We're going back to our roots!! We are accepting all kinds of canned and boxed food items for the Chicago Food Depository. For each canned/food item you bring in you will receive one free raffle ticket!!

    Is there a limit as to how many you can bring/how many tickets you can get? Cause I'll load up the trunk!!!

    Nope, no limit! The more items you bring (new, unused, unopened, non-perishable) the better for the Chicago Food Depository! 1 item = 1 ticket! So load it up! :D

    I'll wear a nametag for a raffle ticket...I can be bought.... :D

    LOL!! See! Nametags = people know you - selling out + 1 raffle ticket = people know who you are!
    Evil Closet Monkey wrote:
    I still protest the names tags ;)

    A. Protest all you want
    B. You don't even need a nametag
    C. You're still wearing one anyways!
    gndcd402 wrote:
    haha i need to wear a nametag since i know nobody :(

    Come up to the table and we'll introduce you around, then you'll know lots of people AND you'll have a nametag for the people who you didn't get introduced to

    I've been a 10c member for a long time but just started posting again this past spring. I have to admit that when I went to the EV show in Nashville, I was looking at all of these people around me outside the venue, inside the venue, at the hotel... wondering - who are these people? I wonder if any of them are people that I've seen on this board? I didn't make it to the pre-party like I had hoped so I didn't meet people there. Although name tags might be crazy for the youth of today... I actually thought it would have been helpful. I thought I might frighten people at the venue if I just walked up and said, "Hi. I'm DreamOfAngels... are you an active poster on the 10c forum? If so, what's your name? If you aren't, nevermind"

    Exactly the reason I'm so gung ho on everyone wearing name tags, especially with a crowd this big

    Add myself +1 for both nights. What time are the raffles taking place? All day? Got some stuff to donate, but won't be able to get to the party til mid-aft.

    Added! The raffle usually takes place an hour or so before doors open, but we have raffle tickets for donation available from when doors open and onwards... so if you want to donate an item, bring it on over!

    I would like to be added to the invite list for the first night. If you don't have a ticket or a ten club ticket, come ready to kiss my ass, or buy me beer, haha. There is a good chance I'm going to be a loner both nights and will be looking for a solid fan that is willing to purchase the ticket at face value.

    Oh and no I'm not a frequent poster, I usually only get excited enough to post right before I see them live!

    Added! Though you'll have to promote the ass kissery on your own ;)

    hmmmm I can't think of any beer native to our locale. I guess the closest thing would be Kentucky bourbon or local wines.
