Stopped by cigar city and tried a dozen of their offerings. The Jai Alai was solid, as was the cubano style brown and guava sour. Good gourd was also tasty... close second to pumpkinator in the pumpkin beer category.

Looks like I'm not gonna make most of the bottle share due to a family function at 9:30. I'll still swing by afterwards as it won't last more than 30 minutes or so.

I'll still keep my name on the list and bring the ABW Heavy Machinery and the Growler, but save the whalz bro for Miss St. (if a bottle share does indeed happen)

Having an Austin Beerworks Heavy Machinery wet hop IPA. Good, but I had Deschutes Fresh Squeezed first. I think the Deschutes was better.

Todd got asshurt and permabanned me on beeradvocate. He sent me an asshurt email about posting gifs and how it's their business and not my playground. Then said he'd reinstate it THIS TIME (rabble rabble rabble). ... He also apparently doesn't appreciate a good ol 'Mercia boner I reference to all the neckbeards pissing themselves over pumpkinator

I never really peruse the BA forums. Any links to stuff like this or are they always deleted quickly?

Anything other than stroking each other's hogs over there is frowned upon ... I don't post much, sometimes it's just to goad the other guys on the southwest forum, but the moderators over there are crazy

Went to trinity with a buddy today. We split an old growth Flemish. Was a fair to midland beer but at damn near 25 bucks for a bottle I'd expect a bit more.

Trinity has got a nice line up of sours but damn they are all pushing $20 or more.

I can get a real belgian sour for less than that.

Someone should put together a list of ratings by TA folks for beers most reviewed/suggested on here.

Anybody want to recommend good sours that are available in Texas, specifically Austin? Reading online I've seen La Folie which I haven't found yet and Duchesse de Bourgogne which I have seen but haven't picked up yet. I need to head out to Jester King to pick up Boxers Revenge and RU55.

If you stumble across Rodenbach Grand Cru... Buy it. Outside of that... Anything that JK puts out will be solid. You can usually get wunderkind or salt lick if you look in the right places.

Agree with the Rodenbach Grand Cru. Great. Disagree with the JK Salt Lick. Terrible.

As someone who is starting to branch out into other beers, I'd definitely be interested in seeing some kind of aggregated list. Not sure how easy for feasible that would be though. Made a trip to the Smith Street Specs with a list culled from here. Found a few of them. Really like the Kona Pipeline. Haven't cracked open the Miles Davis *****es Brew or Brooklyn Local 2.

Where do you guys to for the seemingly rarer stuff? Just pay attention to release dates?

It's cool, but part of what I enjoy about homebrewing is the manual process or simplification by my own means. This takes away all of that, so while it is coll, I will pass.

Step 1: Find your local beer store.
Step 2: Get in good with manager.
Step 3: Ask him when they are getting certain beers or if they can get you a certain beer.
Step 4: Buy.
Step 5: Enjoy.

This... It's gotten to a point where my local HEB beer guy will just call me when he gets something in. If I say I want it, he'll stash away a bottle or two until I get off work. Also, the beer/wine guys at HEB have the ability to get a decent amount of the "rarer" stuff in. Just keep harassing them about the beer you want.

And always take care of the people that take care of you. If you head out of town to some breweries that don't distribute here, bring your beer guy something back.
