My beer was a hit

Post by Gymrat »

Ralph's Iron Chain Amber was gone in 3 hours at the wedding today. There were also 2 kegs of Bud light but the crowd was always waiting on my beer :)

That's pretty cool and has to feel good. Give the people a choice and they'll always go for real beer.

That's great feedback! I'm glad to see people getting away from the bland fizzy stuff.

Aw. Some are great Wordsmiths. :whistle:

That is neat though. When I started brewing and SWMBO and my sons like it, that was nice - but hey, are they going to say they hate it? Introduced some friends to it, same reaction. It was really nice when we brought cases to relatives while on Christmas vacation and they were shocked at how good it was - it really brings a grin to your face.

Congrats to Assistant Brewmaster Ralph, and to you too.

Very good! I know the feeling, having done a few wedding beers recently that were well-received. It's a great feeling, and I am not surprised that your beers were the preferred libation. Which is my way of saying, "that's pretty awesome."
