My PA's are out getting some Pacifico's for an office party this afternoon. Almost all Mexican beer is swill, but adding a lime can help the cause.
They have Dreadnaught.

Agree. I love that stuff. In fact, I may pick up a bomber on the way home.PS, for the BIF guys, I may or may not have included a bomber of this in the box. We'll know Monday.
I like their normal IPA too. Its not standard, nice originality to it from the hops they use. Most IPA's don't stand out from the crowd...this one does. Hey TipTop, status says "delivered". You can choose from either the IPA or the Moylander tonight if you get them in the fridge early enough...Agree. I love that stuff.

Was down in Sactown earlier this week on a last minute trip and happened upon a Bevmo on Arden Way. Was finally able to get my hands on some Stone RIS as their distribution list didn't have anywhere north of Chico getting any of it. They certainly had a larger selection than the Liquor Barn that we have up here has. Will have to return to Sac again in about 6 weeks and should arrange a beer sampling cornhole (on a small scale as I have some family stuff to take care of). Would have contacted you this time as I was there for a couple of days, but didn't have time to PM you beforehand.Agree. I love that stuff.

That store on Arden is my regular stop. Even if it is way the hell out in BF suburbia. There are a couple of other stores that are close that can expand your selection a little bit more. Definitely let me know the next time you're coming through.Was down in Sactown earlier this week on a last minute trip and happened upon a Bevmo on Arden Way.

Please update. I thought is was a very good beer.
Wow its really cloudy. Nice deep straw color. Smells of cascade hops. Beautiful pillowy head. So far, the appearance of the beer is gorgeous. I suppose I should have a sip.
Did you get my package too? Not as much namepower, I know.I received yours....my first beer trade! Unfortunately, I didn't have time to put them in the fridge before heading out to eat. But, that has been rectified now, and I'm sure the Arrogant ******* won't last more than 24 hours. Thanks for the cd's, btw. That was a nice surprise. Some good choices on there.
No, didn't get it. That darn train made me miss my beer delivery.Did you get my package too? Not as much namepower, I know.I received yours....my first beer trade!

Props to Skylord for helping out this beer trading n00b.
Oh......drinking an Aprihop now. Since I only have a limited amount of DFH beers in my possession, I try to space them out so I'm always reminded of just how good they are every time I have one. Had a 90 minute last night and fell in love again.

I see that now at UPS.com. F'n trains. What is this - 1906? Sounds like you got your hands full this weekend already. I was excited to read about Archers and then disappointed to find out they won't/can't ship to GA.No, didn't get it. That darn train made me miss my beer delivery.Did you get my package too?

Actually, Skylord was very innovative in his "trade". He just sent me a PM saying he sent me a package knowing full well that I would return the favor with some interesting stuff from the midwest. He only really knows what one bottle I am sending is at the current moment.You guys really need to detail what you're trading. I'd like to know who is getting what for what. That way I have a better idea of what I can send for future beer trades.

Although, I think I may be Honda'ing myself.Real Ale, a rapidly growing company opening a big, new brewery in Blanco in early May, has lured Pierre Celis back from Belgium to oversee brewing ales that established Celis Brewing Co. in Austin nearly 15 years ago. Under Celis' supervision, Real Ale expects to deliver six-packs of what it will call Brussels White and Brussels Grand Cru to Austin beer outlets by the middle of this summer, Real Ale owner and brewer Brad Farbstein says. Brussels White will be the base for three ales made with the juices of Fredericksburg peaches, Wisconsin cherries and European raspberries, he says.
:( Hopefully the local bottled options will get better soon.The answer to the original question is Shiner Kolsch. I've got to quit buying this crap just because it's local.

Thats ok. You are closest to this news. We are all interested in when this will actually get off the ground.The raspberry was great, I really liked it. Now a Belgian white with peaches?
