Dammit! Beer and wine glasses are virtually disposable around here but we usually get to use them at least once. I do have a couple I try to be careful with though.

We went out to Fishale last night and I finished with the Founders Porter after a couple Jacksonville pale ales, one from Engine 15, Battleaxe and the other a Greenroom Pablo. Passed out on the couch as soon as I got home. :(

We have enough pint glasses that some of ours are still boxed up after our last move. :) It helps that years ago, after a beer festival, we helped guys from Dogfish Head pack up/haul stuff out, and they gave us a case of pint glasses, as that way, they didn't have to haul them away. :D

Sounds like you had a nice night! I drank two beers and then went to bed. :D I have a growler to open and finish tonight.

Managed to get a 4-pack and a loose single of regular Bourbon County 12-ouncers yesterday.

Idiots at Goose Island decided to expand distribution to Whole Foods and CVS this year. So the small liquor store owners, who have supported them all these years, either got nothing or 1-2 cases, and had to fend of thousands of phone calls from guys like me. And no bombers.

EDIT: A FT friend came down for beers his afternoon and I took him by my local and he got me another 4-pack!

How's the Westvleteren Blonde (6)? Which other Belgian blondes would you compare it to?

If you have tried the St. Bernardus Pater 6, it's supposedly the same basic recipe.

Speaking of Westvleteren, how do you like the T-shirt I had made for FoBAB?

hope so.. they had 2 4 packs set aside for me, but when I went to pick them up my guy asked me if I wanted to take the last case too.. I didn't really want to but he highly recommended that I do.. so off I went... it's too bad I forgot about the 2x MR points at small businesses promo I have with my AMEX though... that stuff is pricey..!

Nice shirt!

From the photobucket page you need to click on the "IMG" link, which will copy an appropriate board-code link to your clipboard, then plop it down - it'll look like this: (without the spaces inside the brackets)
[ IMG ]http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd185/efsefs/shirt2.jpg[ /IMG ]

Or click the "DIRECT" link to copy just the image URL to the clipboard, and paste it into the box after clicking on the little picture icon in the editor.

End result should be an embedded image like this:

Always buy as much Bourbon County as you can. You will never have a problem getting rid of it, and it's great trading material. Guys in Europe will give you anything for it.

If someone offered me 100 cases I'd take it.

Check out this, for example: http://mybeercellar.com/?itm=25346

Circuits: Thanks for posting my pic! I got the little icon in my post, but did realize I had to click it.

I had their root beer for the first time last week, it's pretty good
