I have to say, Heady Topper exceeds the hype, if that's possible. Rank it slightly higher than Pliny and Yellow Rose on my IPA favorites.

Doesn't Utah only serve near beer?

-You can only get 4% domestic beer in standard grocery stores

-You can buy full content beer at the "state store" but bewarea 24 pack of Pacifico is about $54.00

-Wine in the state store is about $3-5.00 more than what we purchase in CA

-Liquor prices (not sure because I don't usually buy) (actually, here is a link to the prices: http://abc.utah.gov/products/documents/AlphaPriceList.pdf)


-If people are comfortable packing a bottle of something maybe they should?

-When at a restaurant, buy bottled beer! Anything on draft, including microbrews, are 4% or less.
-But ASK which bottles are full content before buying, not all are and no domestic beers are full content, even in the bottle

High West Whiskey is in Park City. The tour is pretty cool, the food at the restaurant is good and, of course, there is whiskey.

Just did an inventory and rearrangement and found out I have several bottles of St. Arnold DR12. It's an old ale and was put out in 2012.

I never cared for it from the beginning and forgot that my in laws gave it to me. May try one to see if I've changed my mind, but what could I realistically trade a sixer and bomber for?
