No, I haven't seen it (that i know of). It was probably at Bevmo, but honestly I don't even look at Butte Creek anymore. The only beer of theirs that I enjoyed is their winter seasonal.I might buy some next time I'm in the store, but I've had some bad luck with organic brews. I honestly can't think of one that could even be considered above average.
Sounds like you don't need anymore beer.Had the Aprihop and Hopdevil from Tip Top. Bother were great. The Aprihop was especially good since it was hot oout. Also put down about 3 SNPA and 5 Firestone Pale Ales. Now, ontomy list drink of the night, **drum roll*8a growler of Masala mama from Tip Top.
arrogant *******.

If you can ubderstand what i type then i can use more beer. 
This is often a mistake. Drink the best beer at the start of a driking session, not the end of one. In this case, the SNPA were your best bet to end the evening.Had the Aprihop and Hopdevil from Tip Top. Bother were great. The Aprihop was especially good since it was hot oout.

Gator,Listen to the professional. In most other things, it IS best to save the best for last. Not in this instance. Sorry, man, but you should save that MM for another day when you can start out with that bottle.This is often a mistake. Drink the best beer at the start of a driking session, not the end of one.

I'm just speaking from experience.
I've kicked myself the next day for polishing off a really great beer when I was drunk the night before.
"Sir, step away from the Westvleteren. I think you have been over-served.""No way!!!!! :hiccup: I'm gonna do it!"I'm just speaking from experience.

My favorite Barleywine that I have had is the Old Ruffian from Great Divide, but there are still a few big name ones out there that I have not tried. But yes, a Bigfoot is a great starting point.
Yeah, the Immort. Just a STRANGE brew. Hits you upfront with a smoky, oak flavor which just isn't all that pleasant to me. Wish I would have grabbed a different DFH brew when I was last in FL, since they don't sell it here
Hoegaarden is always a nice easy drinking brew. Not the best of its style, but far from the worst.
I haven't had the Immort ale yet. I think I have one coming in the mail though, if Liquid Solutions ever decides to ship...Yeah, the Immort. Just a STRANGE brew.

I am sending the 2 beers back.placed an order with Sam's last week. they botched it. i got 2 different bottles of beer than what i ordered. the packing slip had the correct info on it.. they just sent 2 different beers. beers that weren't even listed on the site.

well, i have to say... phenomenal response from Sam's.
i called and expected them to tell me just to ship the beer back.. which would have been fine. i'd have asked for them to pay shipping or something but.. no big deal. i can wait another week as i don't plan to drink them for a while anyways.
so, they guy i spoke with says "we have 2 options"
Option 1: Sam's sends me the correct order w/ a "return box" so i can send them back the bottles of beer that were mistakenly sent.
or
Option 2: I keep the incorrect order and they give me a credit for the total of the order ($25) and i can use that to buy more beer at another time.
well.. the way i see it is i can get 2 bottles of beer out of of it. or i can take advantage of their extreme act of kindness, keep the 2 i have, and then have a $25 credit to buy more beer!
win/win where i come from.

If you spend ANY time in this thread, you'll find this is an ordinary exchange for Furley.Were you just talking to yourself?I am sending the 2 beers back.placed an order with Sam's last week. they botched it. i got 2 different bottles of beer than what i ordered. the packing slip had the correct info on it.. they just sent 2 different beers. beers that weren't even listed on the site.

Things I would try:
Seriously. I haven't even heard of a lot of those breweries.
Baron Brewing Co. Seattle, WA
Uber-Weisse (WeizenStarkbier)
Elliott Bay Brewing Co. Seattle, WA
Demolition Ale (Strong Pale Ale)
Knit Wit (Imperial Belgian Wit)
Mac & Jacks Brewing Co. Redmond, WA
Mac & Jacks IPA (IPA)
Northern Lights Brewing Co. Spokane, WA
Crystal Bitter (NW Style)
Silver City Brewing Co. Silverdale, WA
Whoop Pass Double IPA (Double IPA)
Water Street Brewing Co. Port Townsend, WA
Big Phatty (Imperial Red)
Queen Nina's (Imperial IPA)
This is just a quick view of the styles I would try out. Great local flavor in that festival, I wish I were coming up this month instead of next. (I get one night at the Portland Brewers Festival though).
Neither have I, and that's what would make the sampling so fun. There will be some stinkers, but you will definitely find a few beers that are outstanding as well. I said it in this thread earlier, beer festivals may be as close to heaven as I will ever get on earth (granted I'm with the right people).
Just take notes and if anything jumps out at you as being really good, let me know what it is so I can seek it out next month.Neither have I. I will, though.
Want me to pick something up for you?
That sounds nice.
In this thread, we can be friends. As far as the beer, ouch. Not familiar with the Odelo. I have heard there is a microbrewery out of Mexico called Casta, and the Casta Moreno is supposed to be pretty good (the rest of their beers are supposed to be good too). I would be hitting the tequila myself.
Maybe because you were trying to type Modelo.
I did, I need another!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
I have 4 different years of Bigfoot on hand at the moment.
I still haven't mastered the patience to sit on a beer that's that good. Although I do have a 2003 Old Stock ale that I've resisted the temptation of so far.
