2018 AU Oktoberfest
Bringing Beat-12 Brewing Co and One True Bine Brewing under the same tent gives you Formation Brewing Co. The four beers we came up with together as a plan of attack on AUfest fared well, but alas garnered only 2nd place overall with Galaxy 44 being the highest rated of all of our beers (hat tip to RP). Serving couldn't have taken place with out the help of The Enabler. And as a reward for helping us serve 2000 attendees, he got a t-shirt and a temporary tattoo (inside joke, have him tell you:) Overall, a great first time experience for me on a very stifling hot October day and ultimately the goal wasn't necessarily to win but "make wake like fat boys on a pontoon boat", which is what I believe we did. Got to introduce Dr. Reinke to RP which reminds me, I'm behind on brewing that this year and managed to come home with 1.5 gallons of PBnJT! Time to brew for pleasure for a while and contemplate the next festival?
