Have yet to see any Backwoods ******* in Fw, but did manage to pick up a Green Monster today.

White Wing is pretty much all over Dallas, and it's definitely a witbier. The taste is similar to Blue Moon or Hoegaarden. It's actually a nice change of pace, as all I've been having of late are stouts and marzens.

If you are anywhere near Austin this weekend, I suggest you go to Jester King and take advantage of picking up some Atrial Rubicite. Should be the last weekend it is available for a very long time.

If anyone is going to Jester King this weekend and wouldn't mind picking me up a few bottles of Ol Oi for me, I would appreciate it. I will be in Austin Thanksgiving weekend to pay/pick them up. chriscappelli@hotmail.com

I signed up for the 2014 crooked stave membership. Looking forward to making a few trips out to the mountains in 2014.

An Irish pub in Pacific Beach has been turned into a DIY craft beer paradise by David Pike, a beer fan who co-owns the San Diego Sockers.

The new Barrel Republic, which soft opens Saturday on Garnet Ave., was inspired by pour-it-yourself concepts in LA and beyond, but to Pike;s knowledge, it's unique in the sheer number of taps, 44, that are available to patrons.

Here's how it works: a tablet above each tap explains what the beer is and suggests the proper glassware; fetch your own glass - they come in taster, tulip and pint sizes - and get to pouring. How do you pay? You put money down on a beer card or wristband; a sensor keeps tabs on how many ounces you take (the price per ounce varies on each beer, but prices are competitive).

Bricktown Brewery in OkCity has something similar. Their device is set up at a big table with 4 taps. Theirs has a screen mounted on the taps that show how much is being poured. Pretty neat concept.

I just realized I left my bottle of RU55 at the bottleshare last week. Pwonk, did you find that?

NColoradoAG: No worries, at some point we need to hit up JK. Not the RU55! That beer is not one to leave behind.

cpscAG06: Ol 'Oi is 4th of 5th on my Jester King list. Which means it is still pretty freaking awesome. If I can manage to get out there I'll certainly be snagging a few.

In other news... I was offered the assistant beer/wine manager position at my local HEB today. Is it sad that I'm in there so often I was offered a job...?

That's a shame, I'm not going to make it up to Austin until next month. Hoping to at least get some RU55 but it looks to be off the to go menu at the moment

FYI for folks in the tine, petrol station might be a good place to be 11/23. A lot of good stuff is going to be on the menu, 005,007, merkin, and DR5, just to name a few

RU55 sold out during Funk 'n Sour a few weeks ago... I was fortunate enough to snag a few bottles.

They had more RU-55 the next week after Funk n Sour. Had a buddy grab me three bottles on his way through. Not sure about now though.

Are they done making RU55 for now?

Jetch, yes they are. If there is any left. And since it's at the restaurant, the price is higher than at a store. And my guess is they are out of AR. Not sure if they have the others.

Ncoloradoag,

There was a bottle of ru55 left in my cooler at the bottle share. Send me your address and I'll send it to you.

Yeah, I can't imagine how miserable it will be there. Hour wait for a beer? More?

I hope they are just between cycles in the process of brewing ru55. With them switching their yeast to 100% locally harvested, and the barrel aging process.

Is the White Wing and Rahr Belgian in wide distribution yet? I have seen neither.

I got my Rahr 9 at Specs in FW. Also saw it at World Market last night so I assume its widely available on DFW. Not sure about other places.
