I meant to select thumbs up, aggiejz. Sleep deprivation is a beetch.

Listening to Arctic Monkeys' AM, another good drinking/Friday night joint.

Jason Isbell's Southeastern, ftw. Damn good album.

Working on some Hop Delusion at the moment with some DR14 on deck.

Woooooooo! Got a winner. You local to Houston/BCS? I'll give you a Pliny for your efforts if so. Love me some Isbell.

turfman80, you are a god. This is fantastic. An excellent capper to a day that included Consecration (Amazing, thanks, Jason), and Bourbon County Brand Barleywine (also excellent, thanks Bmac).

Blackhawk Shell has 2014 La Folie, Prairie Noir Wine Barrel, and still has a few bombers of DR14 for those looking. Also have some Boxers Revenge on the shelf and a few Stone brews that I haven't seen before.

Got to try this today, pretty good DIPA.

Probably the best name for a beer I've had since 3 Floyd's War Mullet.

Odell just came out with a new bomber, footprints. Don't know much about it other than the fact that they use an ingredent in it from every state, including Texas, that it's distributed to.

I would thoroughly enjoy watching ants fry during the boil, but I believe it's grapefruit. Cactus blooms would be cool too.

Anyone in inner Houston that wants Prairie Wine Barrel Noir, the Montrose HEB had 4-5 cases just sitting out a while ago. Right in the middle of the aisle on one of the end displays. FYI, grab some!

Wf in Katy has a bunch too. I grabbed some, can't wait to try it.

Not sure what I think. Definitely a different take on barrel aged stouts. I like it, but not sure if I'm happy I have 3 more bottles.

Karbach Hop Delusion may be the best Houston brewed beer out there.


Finally got around to trying it. Delicious. But endeavor is the best brew made in h-town IMO

Honestly didn't like the wine noir very much. But I did open up a Clown Shoes Very Angry Beast. I've always though CS put out good stuff, but I didn't think anything was great. The last 3 I had (Very Angry Beast, Luchador en Fuego, and Space Cake) were all pretty awesome.

Grabbed this the other day. Haven't had one in quite a while. But I really like this beer. Like way more than I should.

Dig the Wine Barrel Noir, but i think i'll let my other bottle age a bit. It could use some mellowing out.

Having some more Hop Delusion tonight. Not as good as last year, but still pretty tasty. Spec's here in CS apparently got a lot of Wine Barrel Noir, so I'll go grab some on Monday.

Finishing the night with a Boxers Revenge. So good.

Houston people, what's the word on Buffalo Bayou? My store had started stocking it. Anything worth noting?

Colorado folk, anyone have any leads on Heady Topper? Really want to get my hands on some.

You'll have to trade for it. You should be able to land some with Russian River stuff.

Where's the best place to read up on the ways of trading? Never done it before. Also, how delicate is heady? Will it stand up to being shipped without refrigeration?

Yeah. At $9 a bottle it's a good value IMO.

If you can find someone up there that will grab it day it's released, and ship then same day you should be good. The northern half of the US is still pretty cool so shipping shouldn't be much of an issue.

Jump on talkbeer and send me a message @fishpondmanager and I'll get you started. There's packing tips posted on page 178ish of this thread, along with resources in the trading section at talk beer.

I don't worry about the weather here. You're fine to trade year round. I think stuff like that is fairly overblown. As long as the package doesn't sit over the weekend you're good.
