saison tasting 2008
may 24th saw the return of jan's successful summer saison tasting. we all had a blast last year and were looking forward to it again.
as always, jan had assembled a huge pile of food and snacks to compliment the excellent lineup of saisons and other fine beers, most pulled directly from his own cellar.
first bottle of the day. brooklyn local 1.
a few shots of the tasty food and snacks that jan had on hand. a little something for everyone.
the growing pile of bottles...
everybody and some desserts.
more bottles...
still growing...
towards the end of the day most folks started leaving to head back into the city.
one of jan's cats. it was pretty much hanging out with us for most of the afternoon.

more shots of everyone.
the bottles for the day...many fine brews...
we eventually moved inside for more sampling and euchre. i was also pretty excited to watch the celtics knocking the pistons around in game 3 of the nba eastern conference finals.
