Oops, realized my post sounds like I'm there. Should have read "Looks like their having a good time down at RB!"..
Not sure if anybody is still around or not.

Re: Official Rockbottom Brewpub Thread
If someone was to go to the RB this Saturday and wanted to take a tour of the taps, which order would be best?

Re: Official Rockbottom Brewpub Thread
so a sampler, and then do each one?
I always thought a tour of the taps was trying one from each tap, which is my plan

If you're going to be in HFX Saturday, the Rye tasting is the place to be.

coolio... my gut tells me IPA, Stout, RIS... but my guts might be telling me something else by then... zing!NASH wrote:Gotchabluenose wrote:so a sampler, and then do each one?
I always thought a tour of the taps was trying one from each tap, which is my planDefinitely a good way to fly, generally speaking you should go from lighter tasting to heavier. That said I have a few heavy hitters but get on the Wheat first, then brown, then schwarzbier then the choice is up to you on the remaining 3, Stout, IPA and RIS.
