Yeah, it is a pretty good one!
I'm not buying into their 1550 "over-hopped pale ale" marketing bs though. An overhopped american pale ale is what a true IPA should be. But of course if they called it an IPA they have to put in a billion pounds of hops or people are going to say it is a weak IPA.

Something like $20 gets you in, $10 of your dollars go to a random charity, and the other $10 get you a large (20oz?) Drakes glass, and 2 full pours of anything they make!

I'm about to enjoy some Gudeløs from Ateistisk Selskab. The rest of the bottle reads "Bryggeriet Djævlebryg Utroligt Gode Øl!"
All I know is that it is 8.9% ABV and looks and tastes like a stout.

Growlers are a refillable to-go container. Usually 64 ounces, but bigger places with the capital to do it, carry other sizes as well. I have a 40 oz. Kleen Kanteen with the stone logo on it that they market as a growler. Also have to standard 64 oz from them.

The Boulder Creek Brewery has a new large fermenter. Now they can brew the quantity they want in one session instead of two. Result: A wider selection. Dreadnought Ale,Pumpkin Ale and a magnificent Imperial Stout were ones that I enjoyed yesterday,and there are plenty left to sample.
