Brewtopia 3

On November 12th, 2005 the NYC Homebrewers Guild stormed Brewtopia 3 which took place in Chelsea Pier with innovative brews. We worked non-stop at our table pouring some of the funkiest homebrews. Sleezy Sherm's Peanut Butter Porter was a hit. We had groupies coming from CT to just sample his infamous brew. RePhil brought his wintery spruce ale. Cuzme had a wit that named after this goombma and Mr. Post invited us to pour his cask-conditioned APA (American Pale Ale). And AzianBrewer shamelessly promoted his Lemongrass Amber.

Overall, the event was not as good as the one held in April. The organizers failed to efficiently utilize the facility. Pretty much all the tables are set up on one side of the venue and leaving the other side empty. Out of the 300 beers that were serving, I have perhaps tried 150 before the event. The most impressive brew I sample that day is actually Goose Island Honker!
