Got Sierra Nevada Celebration for the next few nights...:)
Just picked up the last two six packs in stock of Lagunitas Sucks Holiday Ale at Total Wine. My favorite release so far of the holiday season.
Just picked up a sixer of Resurrection. It's excellent. If it's available in your area, I strongly suggest that you pick some up. It used to only be available on draft. The store limits you to 2 six packs per customer. I guess it's a limited canning thing.
Also got a six-pack of Oskar Blues "Old Chub" It's a Scottish Ale. It's also sold in cans. I wish more craft brewers would package their brews in cans.
Bought a 6 of Hoegaarden yesterday, which is the first craft beer I ever had. Very good wit.
I like Hoegarden too. This brings up what could be a fun topic: What was your first craft beer? Mine was Allagash White. A good Belgian style brew....
As for canning - I agree - I think there are some on their way. Tallgrass, which makes some good beers like Buffalo Sweat and Oasis can their offerrings. My friend mentioned that Ashburn's Lost Rhino is working on setting up canning production.
My first craft beer?
I don't remember the name of it, but it was damn good.. We were staying in Munich, Germany, for a couple of weeks, (back in 1980), and it was a liter of beer, that I bought at a small store. It was packaged in a plain, brown bottle, with a hand-written label. The store-owner said that his family brewed it.
Back in the late 70's, early 80's, my Dad was stationed in Naples, Italy, and we had access to almost all of the European beers. In Naples, you could get a surprising number of beers on draft. My favorite drafts (though not considered "craft" beers, were Grolsch, Lowenbrau & Beck's. There was something about those beers that tasted so good on tap. We travelled extensively, and tried all kinds of local brews. My favorites were the German beers. The best one's were the no-name locally brewed beers, that were always available at mom & pop stores. Never had one that I didn't like.
OTOH, I tried several Belgium beers, and didn't care for any of them. I still don't.
