Nice. Have some coming from TX and FL right now.

Re: Fancy Beer!
 

im in the process of collecting all of the odells cellar series beers, also have a bottle of surly pentagram and smoked along with a few stone's on the rack, should make for a nice mix this winter.
one of the best places ive found so far for bombers is eagle liquor in lino the guy that orders there stuff is a beer nut to say the least, and can get anything, they also bought a new store in north branch which is awesome cause i only have to drive a mile now for good beer selection haha.
ill post a pic of my little cellar for you guys when i get a chance.

Re: Fancy Beer!
 

I love threads like this! I'm a total beer nerd. Not sure what had already been posted about yet, but I'll add my two cents!

I work for a chemical manufacturer and we supply chemicals to a bunch of the local breweries that clean their vats. These breweries include Lift Bridge, Surly, Lucid, Mankato Brewing and a few others I believe. I am obviously a big supporter of these breweries, and my favorites include Lift Bridge Farm Girl, Lift Bridge Hop Dish, Surly Cynic, Surly Furious, Lucid Air and Lucid Saison. Not sure how fancy everyone considers these but they are some of my favorites.

I am also very into Goose Island (based out of the Chicago area) right now - 312 and Harvest Ale being two favorites.

Another one I like is Full Sail based out of Hood River, OR. Their Amber is excellent.

I'm always on the quest for a new beer to try, so I'll have to try to track down some in this thread!

I've got some Dogfish Head Festina Peche on order, but lately I've changed over to ciders. Got a couple Slyboro Ice Harvest Cider Special Reserve coming with the Dogfish.

I'll post up here next time (soon) I have a poker event in the garage. They turn into mini beer fests with a very very wide variety.

Re: Fancy Beer!
 

Woo. Just scored another bottle of surly 7. Found it hiding on a bottom self behind all the sour ales and barely wines. So I had to buy it.

Brain belt is a lmt can run for today only for the zombie pub crawl. Got the only case the lq barrel in new brigton had and only a hand full of stores got it.

Re: Fancy Beer!

Re: Fancy Beer!
 

Just the can. I seen ones from last year sell for 30-40 a can

Re: Fancy Beer!

Re: Fancy Beer!
 

Holy cow, you guys are hardcore about your beer.

Do you drink it all or try selling and trading all the stuff you get?

Re: Fancy Beer!
 

I will trade a couple bottles. drink a few here and there. Most of it I'll drink over the next 3-5 years. I have a stash of 2011 and 2012 still in my "Cellar".

Re: Fancy Beer!
 

Drink it!

I just went to a new brewery in virginia called three brothers. Got a growler to go of the admiral. Kick azz IPA. I've been collecting different beer caps from bottles for a couple years and have gotten around 300-350 different one's.
It's too bad most beers use a generic cap or have one cap for a bunch of different beers or I'd be well into 500+ different beers.

Hello fellow beer lovers!
