cool

I foresee a gift exchange turning into a craft brew exchange. :)

Hopefully someone will buy me a Pliny.

But I'd gladly accept a Bruery Black Tuesday!

bomb diggity!

Paul is expanding the beer menu. Shady Belay Brown will make another appearance.  He is also doing a west coast IPA and a Belgian Triple IPA. The triple is amazing. The $10 should recover his cost for brewing at 60-70 bucks a batch.

Should be a good time. Hope to meet some of you I have yet to meet.

Climbed the full blood moon this last Thursday night. Great climb up Fresno Flats. Bonus was they graded the road all the way up so. Rising at 15-20 was easy.

Paul's kegged 2 of the beers last weekend. We also decided because of the good roads to camp at Fresno Dome camp ground so there card bathrooms and we can have a fire.

Climbing under the full blood moon... must've been red from the fires.

The beer making progress report is making me thirsty for the event.

A double batch of the West Coast IPA and a batch of Shady Belay Brown are a go. Probably won't have the Belgian Triple since Paul tried a new formula and doesn't think it is up to par.

Camping will be at the Fresno Dome camp ground.

Does Belay Brown prevent wasp stings? I'll need a lot, just sayin. :)

Night time climbing should keep everyone safe from harm from wasps. Unless I guess anyone upset a hive which probably isn't likely. Maybe by then it'll even get frosty and reduce the populations, but the forecast looks warm. It has begun to get chilly at nights again, though.

As we get closer to the date, John's and my newest concern is getting there on time out of Bay area traffic Friday.... hopefully.

We plan to make it, and so does Tiki Ger last I heard last weekend, and Mike A. Sounds like Dan M. is interested? Hope you will be there Dan! Who else here is thinking of it?

Looking to go, but not sure I want to climb at Fresno dome both days, and I may not arrive by 11pm on Friday.
