Zwanze Day!

On December 1st, Josh and I took part in the world wide Zwanze Day. Once a year, Cantillon brewery in Belgium releases their rhubarb saison. Only a handful of bars around the world are lucky enough to get a keg, and they are all tapped at the same time and everyone around the world toasts together. Long story short, it's a pretty big deal. We got in line around 8am with a bunch of other beer nerds. We had pre-cooked 5 lbs of bacon and 24 breakfast burritos. We do it up right. Everyone brought amazing beer to share with the crowd. And it was the perfect sized crowd too. Maybe 150 people? Everyone was so nice and friendly, sharing delicious beer, and having a good time. It really made me proud to be a part of the Denver beer community. We've got a really good thing goin on here!
