We needed some professional photos, so 32 and I enlisted the help of our friend Sean Living-Water (credited as Sean Living H2O in the shots). The three of us had a blast roaming around parts Durham. Sean did a great job for Fullsteam, both during the shot and in post-production. Hope you enjoy the pictures! These shots represent our official photos for our media kit, which can be found here.

Fullsteam in Wilson!

32 and I had a great time in Wilson, North Carolina on Saturday. It was an honor to premiere Hogwash!, our hickory-smoked brown porter, with North Carolina barbecue — and Ed Mitchell’s famous Eastern-style ‘cue, no less! Ed Mitchell is a Wilson native who is now the “boss” / pitmaster at The Pit in downtown Raleigh. It’s clear after seeing his barbecue demonstration at Saturday’s dinner that he holds Wilson close to his heart.

We poured Fullsteam, Sweet Potato, and Hogwash! for a modest but enthusiastic crowd.

Takeaway #1 was that the smokiness of Hogwash! is pronounced on its own, but subdued when paired with Carolina barbecue.

Takeaway #2 is that our Sweet Potato beer pairs surprisingly well with naner puddin.

Many thanks to Gary Cole, Executive Director of the Theater of the American South, Barry Page of the Arts Council of Wilson, and to Sandra Homes of the Wilson Visitors Bureau, all of whom made our participation possible! And thanks to Amanda and her team at The Pit! You guys rock!

Here are a few more pictures of the evening, and a shoddily-produced video by yours truly.
