Springfield Expansion

[Drew]

I'm uncontrollably excited to be able to say I got a beer at Moe's.

 

[Hatetofly]

As am I but I think Duff Gardens will be the place we all end up :thumbs:

Sounds like the place to have a future meetup in celebration all of Universal's 2013 success, no?

I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but what exactly is Duff Gardens going to be? Outdoor bar?

Duff beer for me, duff beer for you. I'll have a duff, you'll have one too.

Patio/viewing area from my understanding. I think it'll have a stand with bottled and draught beer. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Enclosed seating area? Or just a common theme park stand with seats close to the lagoon? I am imagining the former.

Here's what a beer garden looks like. Imagine this within the space that it'll be in with some Duff flare, and...yeah. I'm sure HTF can elaborate a bit more because this is just an educated assumption.

No. It'll be outdoors. My educated assumption is a couple high tops 4 tops, probably a few benches, and some other seating area.

That beer garden looks awesome...anything near that and it'll be a top spot, no doubt

Matt Groening has stated that he will not license the Duff trademark to brew an actual beer, over concern that it would encourage children to drink. However, there have been a few notable cases of individual companies and persons who have used the term "Duff Beer" with varying success.

Who's going to make Duff Beer for Duff Gardens?

I hope we are getting a real Brewed Exclusively for Springfield beer like hogs head brew is for WWoHP, I believe HHB is made by the Florida Beer Company

Just FYI, it's been up for a few days :thumbs: Androids given its location off to the side isn't a priority to get finished up right now. The other three are so they can reroute the fencing.

Doesn't look like they've touched the exteriors in a week.

However, they have poured concrete, and there are painted paths to the 3 doors. Maybe this week now that the slab is there.

Nope. Hogs Head Ale is the same thing as Safari Amber that Disney claims is exclusive to AK although that isn't even true. Below is taken from Party in the Parks website:

Did you know that Safari Amber is specially brewed just for Disney? And did you also know this exact same beer is served by several other Anheuser-Busch retailers who also say it's specially brewed for them? Good catch by Kathleen, this is that same red amber beer AB tells just about everyone to claim as their very own micro-brew including Darden (Olive Garden, Red Lobster etc) and most recently Harry Potter at IOA. It's also always quoted as exclusively available at Animal Kingdom & the AK Lodge, but you can actually find it sold as this Safari Amber at the Refreshment Outpost in the Africa section of World Showcase in Epcot as well.

Duff Gardens is a large outdoor bar on the waterfront. Think Chez Alcatraz but a large rectangle instead of a half circle. It's going to be placed right across from KFP and Moe's, and will also act as the drink and snack HQ for the new Cinespec VIP viewing area. There will be a ton of new outdoor seating for this area as well. It will be without a doubt the most detailed and nicest looking outdoor bar at the resort and IMO at the Orlando parks. Finally there is also a retail shop (attached) at Duff Gardens along with some very cool little unique thematic effects. Hope hat helps!

the way this sounds, it makes me wish it could be used as a holding pen for HHN instead of kids zone....
