Good stuff! That should definitely keep us busy. I'm not a big fan of sours, so your safe from me wanting that.

From what I've researched (and the Denver folks feel free to correct me), your best bet would be to make it over to the area around Coors Field. There's Breckenridge & Great Divide within 3/4 block radius as far as breweries go. Falling Rock Tap House ....


Keep http://beermapping.com/maps/citymaps.php?m=boulderdenver handy.
Falling rock regularly has pliny elder on tap, along with about 80 taps.. all craft.

NCOag, do you know about when PtY tappings are? Pretty soon I reckon?
FRTH put this on their website a bit back

Has anyone been to South Austin Brewing who would be willing to share a review?

We lost a beer lover last night.


My Aunt/Uncle's 15 year old Pug, Barkley, went on to doggy heaven last night after a several year long battle with lower body paralysis.

He loved to sit at the bar, eat marshmallows, and sip on fresh homebrew of my uncle's. So did his little brother Kobe.

Couldn't find one with his little beer sampler cup in front of him.. but here's a few of him at the bar waiting for marshmallows.



Him and little brother Kobe


And the beer named after him that I helped my uncle brew, a Pliny the Elder Clone that actually won a homebrew award for double IPA.


But in happier news, Uncle just won 3 more medals this weekend. Silver for an Eisbock (huuuge beer, like 14%. He uses freeze distilling to get it up there), and a bronze for his Belgian Dark Strong and American Barleywine. 3 entries, 3 medals.

News is filtering out. Twitter and Facebook are the best tools in the hunt for younger. This is the most comprehensive list so far for Denver.

I'll probably skip the Denver tappings. I hope Homemade Liquids and Solids gets a couple again this year. Their release method is so perfect. I'll definitely be at a few in Fort Collins (Mayor of Old Town, Choice City Deli).

Headed to Stone brewery sometime this weekend or possibly Mon on the way back from Coronado. Reading their website it says they start selling tours at 11am but limit tours to 25 people only. Has anyone been recently? Do I need to get there earlier than 11? Also any suggestions of beer bars in San Diego?
Thanks

ncolorado,

I am heading to Jester King and then the pizza place down the road that sells their bottle beers so if there is anything you would like me to pick up let me know. I dont think whiskey barrel rodeo is available right now. I have a bottle of the weasel rodeo


Out of curiosity, what's the name of the pizza place? My FIL lives about a mile and a half from Jester King as the crow flies(about 3-4 on the road once you get back to 71 and around to Fitzhugh). We need to get him to branch out when we go visit both in terms of beer and food choices.

Toronado (bar) and Alpine Brewing Co. are a must for me. Societe Brewing is also getting some good press, and one of my friends has actually contracted them to brew for him. One guy at Societe was a brewer at RRBC and the other is a Houston guy. I wanted to visit them in August when I was there but didn't have time, do I drank their Dandy IPA at Toronado.

You could check out the South Park Stone company store and fill up a growler then cruise up 30th to Toronado in North Park. Both are fun neighborhoods.

Anyone have any thoughts on Lagunitas Sucks? I was thinking about picking up a 6-er but wanted some opinions on it.

Sucks has been well received here. I had this year's batch for the first time yesterday and I was very impressed.

Not a brewery, but marble has a taproom downtown that is a pretty good time. Never been to Santa Fe brewing, but seems like it would be worth while (if they do tours).

Snagged a 4 pack of Immort Ale at the West Alabama HEB this afternoon. Tried one - haven't decided if I really care for it or not. Will drink one more and let the other two age for a bit.

Apparently my post got buried by cure dog pics above (RIP).

Has anyone been to South Austin Brewing who would be willing to share a review? I have two kegs coming, but I've never had it.
