Congrats on living your dream. Even though i'm out here in CA, I felt I had to be a part of this. As a fellow homebrewer and beer geek I'm really happy for you!
Creator Mike and Nate on July 23, 2010
Just made it under the wire. I'm glad you got funded and I'm happy to be a part of it.

It's ok Erik, I totally LOOKED 18, lol
Creator Erik Myers on July 21, 2010
What? That can't possibly be legal.
Creator Nichole Myers on July 21, 2010
It's official, I'm backer now! I'm ecstatic to be a part of it. After all, 14 years ago you took me for my first pint in a Canadian pub... (please note i'm only 28 now). A votre sante!
Creator Lucas E Szymanowski on July 16, 2010
Congrats Man! I was seriously rooting for you!

Congrats on reaching your goal!!!!!
Creator Russ Carr on July 13, 2010
ROCK! You did it!
Creator Erik Myers on July 12, 2010
You said it. Multi-state distribution is a bear.
It so happens, however, that there's a bottle shop in the state of North Carolina that happens to be one of the top 3 bottle shops in the country. It so happens that said bottle shop ships beer around the country and that it has been known to act as a kind of distributor for certain local breweries.
I have no deals worked out (because I have no product just yet), I'm just putting that information out there. :)
Creator Jason Harris on July 12, 2010
Question, will there be some method for backers to actually purchase the beer later? I know beer distribution (especially through mail) laws can be somewhat Draconian, and it'd be a damned shame to see all this cool stuff being made and never get to try it :)
Creator Erik Myers on July 12, 2010
Hey -
No, it is not. And while imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I can't say I'm too impressed with the straight cut and paste from Kickstarter here.
Thanks for pointing this out.
Creator Lucas E Szymanowski on July 12, 2010
Just wanted to know if this is you as well? Even though the name is different?

I love this idea. I have been homebrewing for 15 years and if it wasn't for being in the Army, I would be interested in helping out. Best of luck; I look forward to reading about your adventure...
Creator J Bourbon McQuade on July 8, 2010
Good luck with your project. I'm sorry to say I can't contribute as my own business is in its death-throes. I am a lover of good hand-crafted ales.
Good luck,
