Operation: Around The Keg Bash

Mr. Henderson has tentatively accepted our invitation to come to the Great Lakes State! Of course, the devil is in the details and the timing, so we will continue to negotiate with Rickey to make his brief trip to our cold but lovely state worthwhile.

What I see developing is an annual Around the Keg Bash, whereby ATK contributors and regulars converge on some spot and attempt, with gusto, to drink said watering hole out of beer.

I am currently in the process of finding excellent airfares and reasonably hotel rates, using some of my evil and nefarious connections.

It has also come up that a few ATK contributors are also table-top gamers. Perhaps, if there is sufficient time, Rickey could be introduced into the world of Warmachine. But we'll play that by ear, given that really this is a beer extravaganza we're talking about here, and we need to show Rickey how much fun one can get into in Michigan.

In other brief news, I transfer my Scottish 80 shilling to the secondary fermenter this weekend, and I just ordered some ingredients for what I hope will be a nice Brit ESB. And I only have 8 bottle of my Russian Imperial left. That shit goes FAST.
