DERBY DAVE ---

Call Lori ASAP! She can't come, but she said she could give someone some info to pass out.

Hey Peter,
I still have a few items that Lori gave me to take to PJ20 at Alpine Valley!!!
I would be more than happy to bring these along and pass them out at the DFH Event.
I didn't get your message here until 11:30pm,
so I didn't call her...but I did send her a text with this info!!
Hope to see you at 4th Street Patio on Thursday!!

When I lived in MD a little place did one of these in Frederick too and I got to try the Faithfull Ale (still have a couple bottles too). It was definitely a lot better on tap that out of the bottle. If you go, I would recommend the Hellhound as well. It's a very good beer.

tempting to burn a vacation day for this if the wife wasn't working .

Let's bumpity bump this shizzzz....

I heard that if you get there around 7 PM, you could be out of luck!

Oh, and if you want to take the tap handle home, you're out of luck. They have to return them to DFH.

Thanks for the "HEADS UP"... Peter

I'll have to leave around 6 for the Chef's Dinner @ Barcelona
& than come back later for an after dinner drink or two!! :ugeek:

Unfortunately, I know the people who run the bar...so, that's not really an option.

HOWEVER... DerbyDave and I did talk about many things related to the band...concerts, Brian, what we need to do to raise awareness...We talked about the awesome PJ20 movie and how it got 100% quiet during the part "What about the next ten years?" scene with Roskilde. We even mentioned Andy Wood!

Fun was had.

Lost In Ohio · January 2012

Oh... We also talked about Dimi from GREECE! Opa!

I want to do it all over again on a Friday! Unfortunately, I have to be responsible today, so I had to be like the "fans" in Indy (03??) and leave early.

Heisenberg · January 2012

Hey Dave...sorry I missed you guys last night. We were there until around 8:30 but ended up at the Woodlands Tavern watching some guy do acoustic versions of "Red Mosquito" and "Sunshower". Good times and good beer. Hopefully we'll be able to get together soon.

Sorry I missed you too...Guess I still owe you a BEER!!!

Had a GREAT time, both TIMES I was there...
Met Peter (Lost In Ohio) there around 5pm, but had to take off for dinner at Barcelona around 6:15!!
Started out with the IMMORT ALE (My favorite of the night!!) and then just as I was finishing this one off...
BLACK came on the radio!!!
I took this as I sign that it was time to try the FAITHFULL ALE!!
Really liked it better from the keg too!
Had a HELLHOUND next and then left for dinner.
Got back around 9:30 and finished the night off with a PANGEA!!
I love the Woodlands...Sounds like a GREAT way to finish off the evening!!

This was DEFINITELY FUN!!!
It's always GREAT hanging out with fellow PJ Fans...
Let's do it again REAL SOON!!! :ugeek:

I think when they do events like this they put DFH tap handles on them but then just write what beer it is on it. Like it's not a specific Faithfull Ale tap handle.

And capthowdy1027...You were right about the TAP HANDLES!! :ugeek:

I just callled the 4th Street Patio and...
THEY STILL HAVE SEVERAL OF THE BEERS LEFT FROM LAST NIGHT...including FAITHFULL ALE!!!
Only ones that sold out were Pangea and Hell Hound so if you missed out...you still got another chance to try some of these AMAZING BEERS!!!! :ugeek:

sigh eternally · January 2012

Wow can't believe I missed this. Guess I'll head over tonight for some leftovers. Surprised they didn't have Ta Henket of Burton Baton on draft.
Thanks for the post.

It's all good! It's good to know that there's other people in this "small town" that share such an expensive addiction. I swear, this band will be the cause of my bankruptcy!

And I know the paths of you, Catherine, Lori (and others), and myself will certainly cross again some day! Maybe back at Fourth Street for a REAL CALIFORNIA benefit.
