captain_philSince a few of you were having problems with the pictures from photobucket, i put them on kodak as well.
Might as well do a recap too.
I overslept a bit yesterday, so I hit the AA and made it here in time for registration and for the tour. I got all kinds of goodies at registration, including a bottle of Fireball Mead, a Bottle of Imperial Cream Ale, a glass, some yeast, assorted coupons and posters, a magnet, a pen, a bottle opener, and a lanyard/badge. The tour was nice, The first stop was Mecklenburg Gardens for lunch and beer. The food here was excellent. I had a Optimator with lunch. Mr. Bruckman showed us where the old breweries stood and told us about the history of Germans in Cincinnati and how they came to settle there.
I had a Celebrator at Grammer's. Mr. Tarbell talked briefly about the history of Grammer's and how it looked when he bought it. He said that it took two people 6 weeks to clean the year's worth of tar and nicotine from the walls and the bar.
After the tour I checked into the hotel and went to "Dos Amigos Tequila" restaurant. I had Fajitas and a 36 ounce Dos Equis. I'm stewarding this morning's judging session so I have to be over at the hotel by 8.
