Chimay blue at my local cigar bar

Let's consider this an almost: Went to the liquor store, where they stock 6 packs of the entire Great Lakes line (that is currently available in that format). They happened to be out of one of the beers. Guess which? Another attempt at acquiring Christmas Ale is failure. I will check again on Tuesday.

Interesting, i'm the total opposite, I only drink beer from the bottle, i don't like it in cans and i'm not a big fan of on tap

that's one of my favorite beers

secured 60 bottles of Christmas Ale this weekend.

it's nice traveling to and from cleveland quite a bit for work.

Did you just go to the brewery and pick up 10 6 packs? One of my fraternity brothers looked up the price for a keg: $175. We're considering getting one for the Penn State game lol. It would make for a fun, fun pregame.

yeah. i bought 10 of them. i probably will share the wealth with some friends and might get more if they are still around this week.

i just had several more bottles of Pliny the Elder and I gotta say this beer is over-hyped beyond extreme! Two-Hearted is far surperior and The Destroyer at Revolution makes all IPAs of any kind look some what amateur...

Are you going to be getting anymore? A proxy would be awesome.

yup. definitely possible. i'll keep you posted during our weekly clan meeting.

did you find any founder's harvest ale? i have a case of bourbon county vanilla on hold for me if any might be interested in a trade...

i didn't find it. i was bummed. i went to every decent store i could think of to no avail.

i'd be interested in trading. have you ever traded beer? how do you normally ship?

i'll see about getting more. i think i'm headed to cleveland this week and i know a friend of mine is going for sure and is planning on buying a shit ton of Christmas Ale.

i trade with a few different people around the country, i use UPS, but most prefer FedEx. Just wrap in bubble wrap, fill box with crumpled newspaper or packing peanuts and just make sure nothing moves around in the box. then just drop it off at any location, i've never had any issues and it's only illegal in some states and usually it's if you ship spirits...
