Going to a Jester King beer dinner tonight.

In addition to the pours with dinner, these others will be available that I haven't tried.
Which ones should I get? (I wish the answer could be *all of them,* but budget and 6 other pours won't allow that.)
Ol oi
Boxer's Revenge (I'm pretty set on trying BR- somehow I've never had it.)
Feral Dampf
Intersection of Species
The Parking Lot (Wicked Weed/Jester King collab)


For reference, the pours with dinner will be:
Figlet, Cloudfeeder, Snorkel, O&P
plus 2 additional "secret" pours

Ol Oi is just about my favorite beer of theirs. I've had a bottle of Snorkel in the fridge for awhile, so I'm curious to hear what you think of it.

Just found out the two secret pours are Noble King green bottle vs. brown bottle.

I'd try Oi Oi and Boxers between those if you haven't had them. Both solid.

There is one in Wolf Ranch in Georgetown near the Target off of University. Unless it has closed.
Yes it is still there, but I do not know if it carries Blue Owl. I was in Spec in Round Rock next to IKEA last weekend and it had all of the Blue Owl Lineup (Little Boss, Spirit Animal, and Professor Black).

Second this. IMO, Ol Oi and Boxers are 2a and 2b when it comes to best large format JK beers. In case you're wondering, La Vie en Rose is 1.

I think that's probably the way I'll go.
I was thinking about the others because they were one time collaborations, but I think I'll just go with the best beers. Decisions like that are probably why I havent had Ol Oi or boxers yet, so it's about time.

MvB was the last of the fruits for me to try and it definitely delivered on draft. The release was really smooth. Had my bottles before official open time and walked straight up and ordered a glass.

I would imagine tomorrow the line will dissipate pretty fast and you'd be able to walk right up after 1.

You must've been around the same spot in line as me.

Agree on Boxers and OO. I would put Foudre up there if we consider it "large format".

So as im not a trader got a quick question for the more experienced traders. Assuming I can get a mule for a couple extra MVB on Sunday what kind of BBA stout would those pull in a trade. Also if I get there 1ish on Sunday I should still be good for bottles?
MathNewman06

I went with the suggestions to try Ol' Oi and Boxers, both great.
...and, despite my wallet and liver, tried most of the rest anyway - shared bottles with a few other guys.

Snorkel was alright. This was batch #4 and some of the others who had it before said this one was a little lighter on the flavors from the mushroom and smoked sea salt, but I definitely still got the smoked salt in it. I'm glad I tried it, but probably wouldn't feel a need to have it again.

Black Note just dropped. You could probably get a couple of those. Others in that realm are probably Huna, Regal Rye, maybe a cycle weekday, bruery stuff like Mocha Wednesday or Grey Monday or Chocolate Rain.

Id personally send you a huna, regal, or bruery stout, but id probably try for the black note first.

Sweet might have to take you up on that. How hard you reckon it might be to find the black note in a place like Omaha where there's bells distribution?

No idea if its going into distro or not. You should poke around in the great lakes forum on BA
