Half Acre had the majority of their beers along with some other craft beers from around the country. There was food the Belly Shack and Big Star but the line for food was too much for me so I stuck to the beer. Two of my favorite beers of the night were <a title=\"Unptappd:  Three Floyd's Samurai Gazebo\" href=\"http:\/\/untappd.com\/beer\/155119\">Three Floyd&#8217;s Samurai Gazebo<\/a> and <a title=\"Unptappd:  Scape Goat Pale Ale\" href=\"http:\/\/untappd.com\/beer\/3763\">Big Sky Brewing Company&#8217;s Scape Goat Pale Ale<\/a>. I though the beer labeling could have been done better so you know which taps were which instead of getting up to the counter and having to ask each time but other than that it was a great night.<\/p>\n<p>Side Notes:<br \/>\n* Jesse White&#8217;s Tumblers<br \/>\n<a title=\"Untitled by bronder, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bronder\/7242588850\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8005\/7242588850_33672e0d4f_z.jpg\" alt=\"Untitled\" width=\"640\" height=\"428\" \/><\/a><a title=\"Untitled by bronder, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bronder\/7242583394\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7237\/7242583394_7ecf74bea5_z.jpg\" alt=\"Untitled\" width=\"640\" height=\"428\" \/><\/a><a title=\"Untitled by bronder, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bronder\/7242581604\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8158\/7242581604_fd583f41c1_z.jpg\" alt=\"Untitled\" width=\"640\" height=\"428\" \/><\/a><a title=\"Untitled by bronder, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bronder\/7242579572\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8014\/7242579572_08a0f24ccf_z.jpg\" alt=\"Untitled\" width=\"640\" height=\"428\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThe entertainment for the night was <a title=\"Wikipedia:  Jesse White Tumbling Teem\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jesse_White_Tumbling_Team\"> Jesse White&#8217;s Tumblers<\/a>.
