Tallinn Crap Beer Festival 2024 updates

Who's up for bottoms?
...Bottoms up!
A few people somehow missed TCrBF this year!
For you, we have just a few leftovers - sCraps - that need shifting into bellies.
Join us Some Place Tonight just before 1900 to help solve this
problem?

First off, please send pointers to photos from social media etc.
I'll try to put together a gallery page for 2024 as time allows.
In the meantime...
Now that the dust and stomach has settled a bit,
it's time to take stock.
And what a stock we had this year -
the strange thirsty masses who make this possible outdid themselves,
to bring the biggest and baddest set of Craps yet. Thanks, all yous!
Each donation, from the bottom to the very bottom, was Special,
but some clear winners losers soon started to emerge.
One definite killer was OJ (specifically, O.J. Strong 16%).
There were plenty of Mocnes, a couple of Vahvas, some Stipruses,
and a 'strong blond' (even stronger than I am!),
but not much is stronger than blue steel:
We were sure we had found the Crap of Craps.
But then...
Haka Peach soon took pride of pain.
Some reviews of our fine fare from Untappd
(the mocnes went down - and came back up again? - especially well):
“Perfume, alcohol, booze, harsh”  - Special Extramocne
“Malty garbage”  - Slaskie Mocne
“Banana”  - Banana Makgeolli
“Nästi”  - Bertold
“Why?”  - Haka Peach
We lift our glasses to you, and we thank you again for raising
up yours! :)

<- Even triple-bagging it!
Cheers! Until next year/beer!

No, people, you haven't missed it.
Several have asked.
It's called SaTURDay for a reason.
See you tomorrow!

A Strong contender
A fan in Finland has something to
donate for the main event of the
weekend. I'll step to the side and let him continue. This puppy
is...
from Finland's oldest
craft brewery, Pramia! Apart from
professional grade malt liquor and artesan kilju, the other main
product of the company is plastic, which is apparently manufactured on
the same premises. This kind of explains part of the taste. It also is
much harder to hit your binge drinking buddy dead with a plastic
bottle, despite the hefty 0,75 l size.
I suppose the buyers at Alko had a really wet evening because this
ended up on their shelves, but they couldn't even disguise the
description well enough:
“Golden-yellow, full-bodied, medium
hopped, malty,
honey notes, creamy, spicy, warm,
balanced”
It took surprisingly long for Finland to get with the Eastern
European big plastic bottle professional drinker game, but what an
entrance! Also includes a whole 0,5 g of protein so one can skip a
meal!

What the Van Girls hauled in for us is no joking matter!
The less said about the beauty on the left the better, perhaps.
Likewise, we'll let you judge for yourself whether Rambler's is a true Classic
but a Ratebeer review does offer a sneak preview: 'Poor.'
If that isn't enough of a spoiler, there's a more verbose comment: 'Piss-poor.'
Just drink the thing and find out.
I pity the fool who drinks the thing and finds out.

As time marches on toward the traditional Shaturday...
Get your donations in! And, in the meantime,
Beware the Ides of March!

ARE YOU BLECH BODY READY?
It's time to start some serious throat training!
And you'll need eye exercise too... hunting those bottom shelves for classic TCrBF liquids

“ It's a Trap! ”
— Admiral AckBarf (in
Bar Wars Ep. IV: A Huge Nope)
Yes,
our first planet-killers have already entered TCrBF 2024 orbit.
And, oh yes,
the word ‘mocne’ appears on at least three labels.
And others are sure to follow.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.
...Or was that just a shiver of excitement?
