FW XVI was from an IP today with a great trader (thanks Adam!)...then we went shopping and ended up with the rest.
Doesnt it just suck when people send you those old vintage beers. Ha would love to have that problem, nice haul.
The Encinitas BevMo has a better selection than the others I've been to (Mission Valley, Mira Mesa, Eastlake, Grossmont). It was hard for me to limit myself. And they had their beers organized by style rather than alphabetical by brewery. I never thought I would like organization that way, but once I figured out what they were doing, it worked quite well.
Thanks. Was playing around with my new camera and remote flash firing, so it was kind of an experiment. Haha, yeah, I knew what I was getting, but I didn't know vintages. Pretty surprised to see that the Kentucky Breakfast Stout is from the first bottling of it (2005). I've never had KBS, so I'll have to do a side-by-side with a fresh bottle to compare. Just hoping all of it was cellared well, as most of it is at least a couple years old.
No pix but this week's purchases: Green Flash Palate Wrecker 4 Sixpoint Three Beans 4 Great Divide Expresso Aged Yeti bomber Fullers Black Cab 1 Bells HopSlam 24 On the shopping list: Troegs Nugget Nectar 12 Lagunitas Sucks 6 or 12
Friend of mine surprised me with these as a little gift. Canned on the 17th and my first time having it fresh. Cool.
Just a bunch of Michigan locals, we just go back and forth with all the Brewery releases. We both have another 12 bottle shipper+ in the hopper.
Was getting ready to drive 45 min to find some Sucks only to find out the same store chain was literally down the street from my house. Never even seen this bottle from The Bruery. Happy sunday to me.....
Full haul from VT this weekend: After delivering my buddy's haul, I was left with this beautiful bundle: Ballast Point Victory at Sea x2 HF Twilight of the Idols x3 HF Arthur HF Florence x2 HF Anna x3 Lawson's Kiwi x4 Lawson's Maple Nipple x3 HF Abner x4 HF Mary HF Life without Principle #2 Eclipse grey wax whatever that one is Palate Wrecker x2 And a gorgeous case of Heady x1
That was the Crystal Geyser that I got with it, I'm surprised the beer wasn't cheaper than that, too.
Did some shopping at Lizardville while I was up on the East Side of Cleveland today: Some 12 ounces (okay, and a 16) I grabbed plus some glassware: And some other stuff I've wanted to try (the left 4 being brewers I know and love and the right 4 being brewers I've yet to try):
you planning on opening that evander soon? if so let me know what you think. not sure it will last until i make my trip from orlando but if it does and its good i might try to grab one.
