Ha, I can't fit that much in my checked bag. I could check two for free though....

NCo- If its not to much trouble I'll take some Russian River. I've never had any of their brews and wouldn't mind seeing what all the hooplah is about. I can trade some DR 12s if interested.

I'll run to the shop tonight and see if there's any Pliny left, but it's doubtful. Are you into sours?

The only one I've had is the Brux, and I enjoyed that one.
NColoradoAG

I wouldn't call Brux a sour. I'll haul a few of the sours down (probably supplication and sanctification). They'd be good post game celebration or drown your sorrow beers. We tailgate in lot H.

nCOag, where are you finding RR beers anyway? I rarely see it, and when I do it's one of two, I think the damnation and consecration. (or one of those that all sound the same)
NColoradoAG
How long do you want to ignore this user?
A couple shops in Greeley have all the sours in stock. They don't sell well up there at $13 a pop. Other than that, they're tough to find. I talked to the owner of Mr. B's last week, and he mentioned that there is no stock sitting around at Elite right now. It seems that CO is in a bit of a dry spell, or RR has some unsual lag between sour batches.

I have a fair amount in my cellar to if you're ever looking for some. I think I have three each of Supplication, Sanctification, Consecration, and Temptation. I also have 2 Beatification's (one courtesy of BSD's extreme generosity)

Hah la fours couldn't be further from the truth. When I went there were kids a plenty. Old people don't like excursions that involve being in the mountains. Jetch you have a balcony?

Red dog is a good stop, the old man playing piano is a hit.

Actually, I would like to go on one myself. My folks did a float plane tour that looked awesome. Did some whale watching tour as well.

Id like to try the sours too.

I'll be tailgating. I don't have a ticket. I'll watch the game from the tailgate.

balcony is the tits, especially when the boat gets into Glacier Bay. Don't even bother with the bow, it is crazy packed.. can't get pictures for nothing. Just sit on your balcony and enjoy. If you aren't facing the right way at first, no worries, after 30 minutes they turn the boat around and hold for another 30 minutes.

I'm on the fence about the whale watching. We did a more private one (just me and my 5 family members), so it was pricey, and you just never know what you're gonna see. we saw nothing more than a couple of tails and blowholes.. Don't get me wrong it was very serene out on that bay, but the whale spotting was a bit scarce.

taking a hike or other nature adventure, you aren't setting yourself up to be letdown.

also if you have time, go to Pike's Brewing, in pike's market. That place is pretty kick ass.

Was in Specs on Brodie in Austin over lunch and they wheeled in a few cases of Dogfish Head 120 Minute while I was there. Looking forward to trying this one.

Also picked up some Boulevard Tank 7 and Ommegang Hennepin. I'll be celebrating/drowning my sorrows after the game tomorrow!

Tank 7 is probably one my favorite beers.

Swilling a great go-to this afternoon: Sierra Nevada Pale Ale

Just picked up a Tank 7 to drink tonight... Saw some DFH Punkin, but decided to pass.

Plan on bringing my 512 Burbon Barrel Aged Pecan Porter to the tailgate this weekend as a celebratory/sorrow drowning beer.

Dogfish Head 120 Minute


Tried it on draft a few weeks ago. I'm not sure I could drink a full bottle at a time. I typically poured a half pint glass worth. It's a great beer, but really heavy, syrupy/sweet and stout(18ish% ABV).
Jason_Ag98

Definitely agree on the Tank 7, it's one of my favorites as well.

Drinking a Lagunitas Lil' Sumpin' Wild tonight, another favorite. I guess either there was less of it sent to Central Texas or word got out about how awesome this stuff is--it seems harder to find this year.

I brought two bottles of Supplication, a bottle of Sanctification, and a bottle of Pliny down for the game. If anyone is going to the game and wants to sample some Russian River, just reply here or PM me. No plans on when to open them.



We tailgate in the Southwest corner of lot H. I'll be in a grey titleist hat

Well damn. I got called out to client around 6:15pm on Friday for a computer issue, and didn't finish until 1am. Got home around 2 and forgot to check this thread. Thanks for the offer NColorado.

Just found this thread and I'm so jealous of yall right now. I'm "stuck" in Costa Rica for the next month and am so sick of Imperial/Pilsen already.

Fortunately one of the gringo grocery stores has Duvel and a few other decent beers, but they're all like $3-4 a piece. Can't wait to get back to the states!
