Man, that was a lot of beer drinking. I’m still not 100% but getting there.
Can’t ever miss that event again. Tons of fun and good to meet Forum members and make new friends.
See you next year!
Dave
Still drying out. Glad I took Monday off.
Yea, me too! Hey, CONGRATS on Ninkasi! That’s freakin awesome…
Dave
Yeah, congrats! I’m more tired than anything. Had to go back to work to rest up 
Had a great conference, but definitely dazed and confused. The size of everything was mind-boggling.
Just got home at about 2am PST finally. Up and getting ready for work now. I thought I was going to get a couple day break from beer, but tonight is BJCP class, and tomorrow is Club meeting… :o
Damn Marcus! That’s crazy!
Good hanging with you and see you next year.
Dave
No matter how many times I washed my hands I still picked up a cold! Dangit!!!
Me too… Thanks again for the shirt!
Dave
I saw a Yellowhammer shirt at the John Mallet talk about malts, was that you or Keith? Dude try to volunteer to hand out beer. He was denied cause they knew he was going to take a pitcher and run. 
Gotta say, being from the northeast, I never really gave much thought to Philadelphia being a “real city”. After this past weekend, I humbly admit I was completely wrong. Good show, Philly!
Good thing I’m only working from home this week…
Wasn’t me. Keith?
had mostly lost my voice by the end of Pro Night. Then I had Moonlight’s habanero mead which was tasty but pretty much the last thing my throat needed. After the typical airport nonsense I finally made it home last night. Sore, exhausted, but smiling.
Now…where to display the shiny thing?
cheers–

Hey, I just found out I took Gold in style 23!! Anyone know how to watch the podcast?
I don’t think I wore a shirt up there but have given several away last year and this year to forum members, plus a couple guys from Huntsville came and wore their shirts.
I think I had a noise hangover from Pro-Brewers Night. My friend had a decibel app that he said was pretty accurate compared to a real one he has at work. It registered 102.
Damn. Good meeting you Jimmy!
Dave
It was crazy loud. I woke up with a sore throat and no voice for most of the day.
yeah, it was loud. At the back of the hall, on the way to take a leak, it was like a jet engine, or Lava Falls rapid in the Grand Canyon.
Still did not meet all of you guys. Next year.
Many commented on how great Philly was as a host city. GR should be a good host too, but is much smaller. Maybe not as many good beer bars, but more breweries in walking distance.
I’m feeling relatively normal today. Great time up there but I wish I would have gotten to the forum meet up. Went to Mcgillin’s Olde Ale house with my club instead for dinner.
Hopefully I’ll be able to make it to Grand Rapids next year.
