I see JW Red on your bookshelf, maybe some Absolute behind that, what else you got there?

that's not my pic, I took that from google. My liquor shelf contains

1. Maker's Mark at all times
2. some sort of single malt
3. gin
4. Whatever fruity/gay/flavored vodka crap the old lady wants

[leemajors]

the yeti is good. freetail bottle release this saturday I believe. I'll be there.

[MannyIsGod]

Tried the Abyss for the first time last night. Pretty good.

[baseline bum]

Had this over the weekend.



Delerium Tremens, since the bottle is difficult to read.

Pretty good stuff, although a little too much of a banana aftertaste.

LOL, best name ever for a beer.

[Fpoonsie]

Had this one a few days ago. Not too bad actually, for a gimmick beer at least.

Liquor cabinet approved only if the gin is Bombay Saphire...

Saphire and grapefruit juice = ecstacy

Where did you pick this up? Huge SN fan here and it looks delicious.

You're not serious right?

It's practically at any HEB out there... or Walmart?

I don't even know if there's a specific place for it.

[Sense]

Also.. I'm very tempted to go to at least Flying Saucer or Freetail for this "beer week"... leaning more towards Flying Saucer because it's closer though.. :/ sorry Scott..

Don't know too much about any pubs here in SA... but why do they have to be so damn far .. :P

[Spurstro]

Did anyone know there's a 6 drink limit at The Flying Saucer?

I'm sure people go beyond that all the time.

[leemajors]

That's not unreasonable, really if they mainly serve stronger beers. I bet as a bartender you don't let yourself get put in that situation too much. The fines and possible lawsuits are not worth it.

[Spurstro]

Freetail to open in Houston....

Not at the HEBs around me, all they ever have is the regular pale ale everytime. I'll have to travel farther for a marketplace HEB

Try Central Market or Whole foods.. you might end up picking up something better :P

I've drank more than that if you count the sampler thing....

Sense you live in SA now? Next time I'm in town we should have a beer.

Specs! Went there for the first time this weekend... WOW great selection and they will order for you too.

Central Market, Whole Foods > Specs IN THIS AREA at least..

Spec's in the Houston/Austin area are pretty awesome...

[leemajors]

Also, you SA folks who like Belgian beers should drive to San Marcos to visit the Root Cellar Cafe, home to Darkside Fermentation. Excellent nanobrewery sells bombers ($10) and has one tap of their own beer.

[Sense]

I've been meaning to look for a place with awesome beer on tap that's also a restaurant, so I could take a friends that have yet to hit 21.. without having to leave them behind...

Anyone? One of my guesses would be BJ's

Luke's downtown is supposed to have a good beer selection....might be kind of pricey though.

Which area? Alamo Heights (I assume AH because you said Central Market).

Also, congratulations Scott!

Oh and if anyone sees Watou Tripel out in the wild in San Antonio (I asked them about this at Specs and they said "well we have been thinking about ordering this" but that was as far as I have gotten), please PM me. It is literally the best beer I have ever drank. I had one at a restaurant called M2 in Austin last year. Even my wife who hates beer wanted one of her own.

Watou is made by St. Bernardus, it's in several places here (Austin), usually in 4 packs.
