      So I went a little overboard I think, considering I have a fridge full of beer. But I just couldn't pass some of these up!

      And I'm going to post this image later to the 666SI world tour thread but figured I'd show you guys my local grocery store selection. This is just mainly the USA stuff, it wraps around other 30/40 feet with international stuff and some more limited bombers as well. No one really thinks about going here for beer, and there are a few smaller bottle shops that have even better selections but usually get picked over. I come here usually when I'm looking for something that's sold out because they usually have one or two left on the shelfs.  😎

          I'll have to take some photos of the selection at my favorite bottle shop, I'll try and make a stop there next week after payday.
          The stuff in the photo above is fairly common around here, most bottle shops will at least have some of the beers represented. But they get some rare stuff every now and then, I didn't expect to see the two Jester King beers I got today there.
          And I'll still ship you that six pack of Live Oak Hefeweizen sometime soon if you want!

            Don't ship me anything until we've finalised a deal mate!.. Trying to save as much money as possible til summer, and spending all I have left on my brother who's getting married…

            I could trade a can or two beginning of next month, though...

                I stipulated I could trade for beer, and buy "2ndhand" beers  😃

                Covered my bacon ass…

                  I'm happy to ship it to anyone interested, now that it's is actually being canned I want everyone get a chance to try it!
                  No rush on the trade, I've seen the six packs everywhere here so anytime you want we can set something up.
                  It's funny because for years it was a beer I would drink regularly and not think anything of it, since it's widely available at bars and restaurants here. I never realized it was a highly sought after thing in the beer community.

                      I have no idea whether it's sought after, I just wanna try it… I love cans (hehehe), I love hefeweisse beer, and I love American beer...

                        From what I know it was pretty sought after especially before they started canning it, could only really be had in and around the city. I think it's a pretty great beer, has a 97 on BeerAdvocate.  Especially great during the heat of a Texas summer.
                        Anyone interested just let me know and we can set something up.

                          Exactly - I want some cans in my fridge for summer… July 01 my austerity program ends... I will certainly get back to you then if I haven't before  🙂

                              We did our first bottle release a few weeks ago.

                              1 was aged in white wine barrels, 2 in gin barrels from a local distillery, 3 had local strawberries, and 4 local cherries.

                              Very proud of how they turned out, and should still have some around if you actually want some…

                                I love Live Oak Hef, probably my all time favorite beer.  That's the West Gate Central Market in the previous shot, right?

                                Speaking of sours, have you been to Blue Owl Brewing yet?  I went last weekend and I've been pleasantly surprised with just about everything they've put out so far.

                                        That is indeed the West Gate Central Market, I live fairly close by so it's my go to grocery store.
                                        And it helps that it has a good beer selection too!

                                        And I haven't made it to Blue Owl Brewing yet, haven't tried any of their beers yet either.
                                        Next time I go beer shopping I'll keep an eye out. What have you had from them that you really liked?

                                          The Little Boss Sour Wheat and the Sour IPA are both great and available at quite a few local places now.  They have a really good seasonal right now, the Dapper Devil, which is delicious.  It's got a sort of lambic vibe to it and is dangerously easy to drink at almost 9%.  You should definitely check it out if you get a chance.  They do tours every few hours or you can buy a glass for $15 to get 4 pours.  The tour is $5 more and from what I've heard, it's well worth it.
