Well, The Oscar Blues Brewing Tasting appeared to be a hit at Good-Ta-Go.  I do not know if any other club members were there as the only one I have met in person thus far is Blaine.  I thoroughly enjoyed the three brews available for tasting.  I don't usually care for hoppy beers but even the "Dale's Pale Ale" was very good!  While quite hoppy, it did not have the chlorophyll aftertaste I usually got from hoppy beers. 
  We tasted:
  Dale's pale Ale
  Mamma's Little Pils
  And I forget the Other.  The mind is a terrible thing to waste and I had a LOT of fun in the 60's and 70's!

  But they were all tasty!  If you were there, Feel free to fill in more info!!

  A little more on the Oscar Blues subject!  I did take home some of the "TEN-FIDY" IMPERIAL RUSSIAN STOUT.  At 10.5 percent alcohol, this most definitely a STOUT stout!  An almost syrupy brew, very heavy!  But by not being overly hopped, it is almost sweet.  Head is dark and lacy if poured properly and at 45 - 50 degrees.  It has very little strong alcohol taste as one would expect from a 10.5 beer.  This is a desert by it's self in my opinion!  Very smooth coffee and chocolate taste, yet no burnt aftertaste.  A poop load of body!!
  I LIKE IT!
