Whitsun Update

The Whitsun release was an awesome time. Whitsun ran like water, and the first 24 people got a free Arcadia pint glass…one more for the collection! We got to sample the traditional Whitsun from draft as well as a firkin of Whitsun which had been crammed full of summit hops. They were both quite nice, but I preferred the firkin. There’s just something about real ale that I absolutely love. The extra dry hop added a wonderful apricot/peach flavor and aroma followed (surprisingly) by an incredible bitterness and dry finish. It's a great beer!

I also had the opportunity to meet some of the guys from the Shiawasse County Area Brewing Society (SCABS). Good group of guys. Some plan to enter a few beers in our comp. They would also like to talk about arranging some sort of combined club meeting.

Should have been there….
