I knew that nickel nuts....
I want to try surly so bad
That's probably why I have northern brewer's bender kit fermenting right now
........
Yeah I get it whenever I go over to Minneapolis or Fargo; I could bring you some next month when I'm back in Texas if the guy who was supposed to pick me up some this past weekend got it for me; and as long as it won't blow up in checked luggage

Setting the bar pretty low, aren't we?
I want any and all of them
super excited because I found these two brews at Specs yesterday
Jester King is quickly becoming my favorite brewery in Texas
I really like the flavor of the commercial suicide, however can't stand drinking a beer that is 3.2%
i had a jester king commercial suicide at flying saucer and I couldn't even stomach it. it was my first beer of the day at noon and had a pretty bad hangover.. but i've never not drank a craft a beer.
I think their point was first to create a good session beer, and second to show that just because a beer is low in gravity it can still taste great
i don't care what they were trying to do.. it was not a good first impression for me.. but i'd try their ipa if i come across it..
I went to the Texas Beer Fest and came away being most impressed by a new Texas only distributed cider, Leprechaun Cider.
Tried
-No Label again, and it has gotten better, but I still brew better stuff and I am new to the hobby.
-New Republic-Out of College Station said they just got their permits the day before, the people they had there were not knowledgable, and the beer was awful(maybe they will get palatable with time, like No Label)

tried a six pack of ruby red bird. i didn't even finish the one beer i opened. i gave the rest away. not a fan to say the least.
Let's talk about this.....

Did you talk to Dean or John? They are the owners and both really knowledgeable. Dean is a beer judge nationwide actually.
I thought the Bellows was good, but maybe I'm just a homer since I live in the BCS.
Just wrote up a blog about my time at Texas Beer Fest.

they released that stuff @ the musicfest in Steamboat back in Jan. I guess it is their attempt @ a bud select or something.

mr. puddy, we get it.. you like american lagers like 90% of the US.. what do you get out of coming here and posting and flaming craft beer drinkers and enthusiasts.
you've really proven you are a fool.. and not because of the beer you drink.

My first Cascadian Dark Ale, I thoroughly enjoyed it
Golden Monkey is where it's at

Didn't know that me posting the types of beers that I enjoy while living in Houston would cause you to get so butthurt. The thread was entitled Houston Beer Thread, no? Didn't know that only fools drink those 2 beers. So what do you get out of generalizing with a ridiculously stupid statement like that?
I don't really have anything else to say Mr. Purdy.
So here is a picture of the Dude and Dudess of Cambridge.

Just because I'm not some beer snob and don't like the same beer you do CATAG doesn't mean I'm trolling.
Just had a Maui Brew Mana Wheat.
Paid $10 or so for a sixer at Specs, but this beer is probably just took the top spot in my summer beer rotation.
This is probably the perfect brew to drink while I'm out grilling...
I normally dont like any fruity beer, but this is a great wheat beer brewed with hawaiian pineapple juice in it. different, yes, but man...they nailed this one...

The Maui Brew coconut porter is also AMAZING. Like you I don't normally like sweet beers but the hint of coconut is amazing.
that pineapple wheat was very interesting.
