Oh we'll be there. If you see someone running after a 6 year old that's me. Also headed out to JK for their anniversary after Jaguar Shark.

Sunday is the big day… Sputnik.

Houston area. Gimme a heads up and I can figure out a way to get them to you. Sucuba was a great beer, Parabola was my favorite of their barrel aged stuff.

Sweet, let me know what I can bring you from CO.

I wouldn't really know what to seek out. Haven't ventured outside of what I can find at my local HEB. An IPA or stout would be good but don't go out of your way.

Headed to Boise next week. Planning on stopping by their Bruery location to sample some of the days. The box is tempting, but with SWA getting rid of one of my free checked bags, I don't think I can haul it back with me.

Jester King 15th anniversary saison was great. Awesome to meat up with Jah in true TexAgs beer thread fashion. Also had their rice lager which was good.

Miss living near here! Little more chaotic to visit now with 3 kids in tow. Pardon the bad pic, I've got my hands full!

Cheers y'all.

Good to see you for a bit.

The guest beers they had out at the old brewery were elite today. Got pours from Hill Farmstead, Side Project, and Allagash.

Wish we could have made that! That old brewery area/upper "deck" of the property is definitely the best spot, in my opinion.

Need to figure out how to get over to JK while I'm home. Although it's a hike from Georgetown.

This one is pretty tasty. I passed on double rose, might have to grab that one next time.

Little rose is a great tasty session compared to slamming delicious yellow rose back to back (to back)

Frosty The Hazeman (lol) from Second Chance Beer Company. The name got me to try it but it's pretty good.

About to do some work.

Right from the source in Bamberg, Germany.

"In the middle of the old part of Bamberg, directly beneath the mighty cathedral, one can find the historic smoked beer brewery Schlenkerla. First mentioned as "House of the blue lion" in 1405, the Schlenkerla is today run by the Trum family in the 6th generation and is the fountain of Original Schlenkerla Smokebeer (in German language it's called "Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier"). The smoked beer is here at the brewery's tavern still being tapped directly from the wooden barrel according to old tradition."

Picked up one from the brewery in Bamberg for the train ride back to Nuremberg.

Today's Friday share beers. Stuck Together Nachos from Martin House was the show winner. Delicious at 10% abv. Hearts on Fire RIS was also excellent and also from Martin House and also 10%. The Cellarmans Revenge (Pink) also from Martin House was just ok but it has a few months on it so that might be the issue. The Wiesener Fest-Marzen was really good. Beer buddy got it in one of those beer advent calendars.


ETA: Last weeks beer share was kinda lame so I didn't post. I'll post now. The Peroni 0.0 was surprisingly good. Better than regular Peroni in my opinion. Someone left it after Thanksgiving. The Husky IPA from Alaskan is pretty solid but nothing to go out of your way for. The draft is Lone Pint's Nitro Brown which is delicious.
Cheers

This one is brewed and only served at the Mautkeller in Nuremberg. If you ever find yourself there I highly recommend this place. Great food and beer.

Another unique winter holiday brew. It's sweet and malty. Also found some Burlington Beer Co. beers at Central Market North. We gave these 4.25/5 when in Vermont, but they scored 4.5/5 in Austin. They had "Uncanny Valley" and "Elaborate Metaphor", but not our favorite
"It's complicated being a Wizard". First Vermont beer we've found in Austin.

Came across mine a few weeks ago. How'd it hold up?
