New Real Ale brew for the band The Sword, called "Iron Swan":



It's an English style ale, pretty tasty. Great band and beer!

I had a couple of those the other weekend and really liked it as well.

Tonight I had an Elliot's Phoned Home by Cedar Creek earlier and am now having a Prairie Ales Puncheon. Both very good.

Tonight's beer:

A little sour, a little funk, pretty tasty.

I love me some Das! I think the beer guy at my local HEB has a secret stash. I'll go in and buy the last one and two days later there will be three more on the shelf. Not that I'm complaining...

I've been staring it down at my Whole Foods for a while now. Maybe it was all the Firestone Walker last night, but I finally broke down and got it.

From the stash I acquired from BSD (thanks again!).

This was a weird one. Very sour for a porter and yet sweet at the same time... tasted like a caramel granny smith apple. I am not much into sour beers so I probably would not grab another one.

LaFours, will happily trade you one of those Karbach glasses for a rare brew...I happen to have an extra I am willing to part with...






...esp since they are just the free tasting glasses they give with each tour...But for you, anything :-p

Yeah when they said 4 bottle limit I figured they'd have plenty of it. Seems a little silly to do a limit of 4 if you're gonna sell out in 10 minutes.. But maybe this is why I don't work at Spec's.

Anyone ever had the Stevens Point Pumpkin Ale? How does it stack up to other pumpkins?

They only got half their shipment in so they now have more. Just picked up 4

I had the same thoughts, couldn't figure out the 4 bottle limit if they had such a limited quantity. But then a second shipment came in right after? Oh well, at least we got some.

Just remembered, I bought mine at a bar which is probably why it is higher.

Lol, $12 at the brewery release. Can't undercut those distributors. But, you could buy a case so I'm not complaining.

Just a terrible week for me for finding beer. Struck out on all FSW releases. Missed the Uncle Jacob's release by 10 minutes because my meeting dragged on longer than expected. Even with two shipments, the four bottle limit was stupid because they still sold in two hours.

Finding beer in Houston sucks now. Ain't no fun if the homies can't have none.

Any sign of CoF in CS yet?

A brewpub that doesn't serve food and isn't required to. Only in Texas.

Once the law is changed so breweries can sell beer to go, breweries will start opening up more. They make so much more money off selling in house it just makes the numbers work. Faster expansion and even a lower bar for entering the brewing biz.
