Booked the Friday Sept 2nd Hard Hat tour at New Glarus over the weekend, and bought a massive 165 qt Igloo cooler yesterday at Costco, strictly for the purpose of stockpiling New Glarus beers on PJ20 weekend...
I might be a beer knurd
Anyone know off hand if Three Floyds distributes to Wisc as well? Need some Dreadnaught and Gumballhead too!!!
i will be at new glarus friday afternoon round 3-5 then some 3ff hunting before the wishlist gig, i am bringing 12 bombers of homebrew for the sat tailgate party, the BA's on this thread need to get together.
I'll be bringing my homebrew as well. When and where?
I prefer hoppier beers, so... New Glarus has an excellent double IPA. Don't know what the name of it is but it comes in a four-pack and the bottles are marked I.I.P.A on the neck. Ale Asylum's Bedlam is awesome, and their seasonal Satisfaction Jacksin is supposed to be available in September. Never had it but with 3# of hops Lakefront makes some great brews. If you're in Madison stop by a Great Dane. They don't sell 6-packs but you can get a growler (64oz jug) to go
I will be in Madison, for the football game in fact on Thursday night. Any good bars with great tap lists to suggest?
Also, I think the New Glarus IIPA was their "thumbprint" beer, that was their spring release. Know any stores that might still have some, it was definitely on my list.

I have friends who have never partaken in the goodness that is Midwestern beers going to Alpine, so I decided to stock up on a shitload of craft brews for all of us to enjoy. So far I have Founders' Old Curmudgeon, Backwoods Bastard, Dirty Bastard, and Double Trouble, Great Lakes Eliot Ness and Burning River, Columbus Brewing Co's IPA and Summer Teeth, Thirsty Dog Brewing Co's Barktoberfest, Elevator Bleeding Buckeye, Alltech Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale, Troegs Hop Back Amber, Bell's Two Hearted, and a mini keg of Oberon... might pick up some others along the way. I'm looking forward to seeing if anyone in the VIP lot will have anything exotic for me to trade for.

I've got the bottom of a 6 pack carrier on my fridge to remind me there's a reason to go back to CA Stone's brews were a regular of mine when I lived out there. Don't see them much out here without a $$$ premium. Look forward to trying yours
Don't have anything of my own yet, but any midwest brews you looking for? I'm planning on bringing up some growlers from the local Madison breweries (Capital, Ale Asylum, Great Dane) and some high end AU wine my brother makes

That Black Metal label looks hilarious, and I always love a good stout. I'd be more than happy to trade with you anything I have on the list there, though I only have two bottles of the Backwoods Bastard, and they're from last year's batch, so the taste isn't what it used to be. Let me know if you have any interest.

I just tried the first one out of my latest batch. Hophead Double IPA. Great one for the hop lover. I'll bring plenty up this weekend to trade/share. Excited that it is ready in time.
Not sure where we'll be. Wherever the line of traffic takes us.
Just picked up some Louie's Reserve Scotch Ale Local store got two cases in today, hadn't even put them on the fridge shelves yet. He also said Lupulin Maximus was done for the year
new glarus has wood fired, hand tossed pizza at the brewery this Sunday from 11-4. thinking about going, if i'm not too hungover (going to try to make an effort to take it easy) looks like it is about an hour and half from my campground... is this worth it?

I'm sure it's been mentioned here but try any of the Leinenkugel's varieties, my personal favorite from them is the Sunset Wheat. They're a Wisconsin brewery.

Spotted Cow is delicious, but please, don't limit yourself to just Spotted Cow! New Glarus has some great, great beers in their lineup such as Fat Squirrel, Bock, Honey Bock, Moon Man Pale Ale, etc.
My suggestion.. get the variety pack and enjoy all that they have to offer!
It's all happening....

Tyranena out of Lake Mills, Lake Louie Brewery out of Arena, and Furthermore Brewery (particularly awesome) are all great small craft breweries in southern WI. Just thought I would throw their names out there. I will be packing some of those on the Saturday and Sunday tailgating!

I will be in Madison, for the football game in fact on Thursday night. Any good bars with great tap lists to suggest?
Also, I think the New Glarus IIPA was their "thumbprint" beer, that was their spring release. Know any stores that might still have some, it was definitely on my list.
ha! yeah, I will bring better stuff too. I'm not too sure how early I'll be there though. Depends on if we have an late check-in at the hotel.
Probably Delirium Tremens, which is what the "DT's" are. Gotta love the pink elephants!
http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/180/1385
that's the one! those pink elephants get me every time
Sorryyyy I had to do it!! I've been hitting up livenation everyday/night hoping that they release a pair.
Either way I'd like to meet up with some BA's at the show.
If I were coming ( :( ), I would certainly bring a bunch of Surly for everyone. But, alas, I am not.
