I realize its supposed to bring out the aroma of the beer but tbh i feel like I should have a straw and a limp wrist.

give me a pint glass, fill it to the top and let it be done

You don't know what a glass is until you drink from the giant fucking glasses at Octoberfest (the real one, in Munich). Not only do you sit around, sing crazy german drinking songs and drink good beer all day, but you also get a fucking great bi/tri workout.

Hofbräuhaus in Las Vegas can be an acceptable poor man's version if you can't make it to Munich. Take a dozen buddies, get wasted, sing songs, das boot, puke & rally, and somehow end up partying with Carrot Top. Happened to us anyways. Fuckin' Vegas...

250 different breweries ah I'm going to be in heaven.

Went to Great American Beer Festival in Denver last year. Epic. Only qualm for me was it's in a convention center. Something about beer festivals outside in the grass that just seems so much more right than on the concrete of a gutted out convention hall imo. You'll definitely have a blast though...what you can remember anyways.

New Belgium Brewery (the purveyors of the great Fat Tire beer, and Tour de Fat) puts on a great beer tour, but it's out in Fort Collins, a couple hours' drive from Denver. If you make the trip to Fort Collins you can also hit up at least 3 other breweries; Odell Brewing Co. (their 90 Shilling is good stuff), Fort Collins Brewery (their Chocolate Stout is tasty, and I'm not much of a stout fan in general), and some outfit called Anheuser-Busch Brewing Co. I hear they make beer, but never tried it.

HAHAHA That's actually what I'm doing today! We've been on the waiting list for 2 months and finally got tickets. I'm hoping they let me do keg stands of Fat Tire. I live in Boulder so I've had all the local stuff. Twisted Pine's my favorite brewery. It's small but they put out really good shit.

They got a sign in their tap room that says: "It's not the size of the brewery that's important. It's how you use it!" I couldn't agree more. Their Espresso Stout is my favorite. It won silver at the GABF 2 years ago. They usually win at least one medal a every year. I was there last night and they were brewing up some new stuff for the beer fest. Can't wait to try it!

Yea, went to the great american beer fest in boston a few months ago. Convention center as well. Still really awesome though. 90+breweries and 400+beers

I called Torpedo earlier in the thread. Great choice with damn near any meal.

If anybody can find it, definitely try the Resistance that I posted above.... Delicious summer beer.

10am - 10pm, fucking wasted.

I <3 Texas...


Yeah, been to Shiner. Also have a Shiner tap for the kegerator. Shiner on tap is DELICIOUS.

..haven't had a keg in there since the kids were born, though Now it's just the extra fridge to keep 12-packs in

see, this is why I don't want children... When I was still a dumb fratboy in san marcos there was perpetually a keg in my fridge. Now whether or not I had CO2 is a different question all together...
