So this is happening. Got a text from BSD a week or so back telling me that I needed to make trip down to the tine, because he had something for me. And I never turn down an offer to hang out with him and his wife. So now Turfman and I are enjoying this on his back porch.

Does anyone know of any good beer options in the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area of Alabama? I'll be there next week. I'm not expecting much but figured if there's anything worthwhile someone here will know about it.
Ugh. It's like y'all don't even read my write ups...

So, some good breweries around Pensacola.

Big Beach in Gulf Shores was much better than expected. 12 taps to try, a variety of styles but main focus on IPAs and sours. It looks like they like to experiment with different hops in some of the same recipes, which I liked.

Emerald Republic was pretty great. They did some unique stuff including a smoked sour. Because of their variety, I ended up with a few styles I don't typically get and was impressed. The IPAs turned out to be their weak point (not bad), but everything else was very good.

Odd Colony was my favorite stop (Emerald Republic was a close second). Another spot with unique recipes and a GREAT variety of styles, including some lesser known styles. I wanted to try everything on the menu. Couldn't do that, but all I had was pretty awesome. The IPAs won.

Perfect Plain was probably above average, but couldn't compete with the other stops. A decent variety of styles. The kind of place that does one of each of the popular styles, but doesn't do anything that'll knock your socks off.


Oh. Almost forgot - Maggie's Bottle & Tail is a GREAT bottle shop out in Orange Beach. The affiliated restaurants have a killer tap list too.

Hey, some of us appreciate the write ups! One thing I look forward to after a beer trip is posting thoughts about it on here.

If my math is right you have 10 leftover beers from that RRBC box... need to re-home them before they get stale?

Austin folks, how available is Training Bines in a grocery or liquor store? I'll be driving through on Wednesday and would like to find a convenient place to swing through.

Just saw it sitting around at H-E-B last night. So... I would think pretty available.


Thank you sir. Went for Electric Jellyfish instead for the first time. Good stuff

I think someone mentioned a place in Orange Beach. But that's a 20 minute drive or more, from Gulf Shores. And who wants to deal with that?

Love that you can buy EJ anywhere... what a time to be alive. Next time you're in Austin give me a shout. I'm vaccinated and ready to mingle.

Your daily reminder to join Texags March Madness...

Currently have... 3 entries. Which means I would still somehow get 4th.

This is a nice Thursday beer during a not so great week. Cheers y'all!

The beer is almost as good as that dead end phone Jack outlet cover.

Thank you Lt. Joe!

Thought it was only going to be D/FW, so this is good news. Hopefully they send fresh and not months old like some other breweries.

I would be shocked if we get anything under 3 months. I barely bought any TG last summer because I couldn't find anything fresh... and that was a hell of a lot closer to the brewery.

That's my worry too. It's the same with Cigar City. Love me some Jai Ali, but not when it's a 6-month malt bomb.

Luckily Lady Dave is about to start traveling back to MN soon and can load up again.
