Yep. They buy'em up and leave their names so you don't know.
I thought AB owns Goose Island but that's more to handle their regular beers - I think Goose Island still does their specialty beers themselves that only have smaller distribution (Bourbon County, etc.).
Yep from what i know and dunno where i heard it. AB does their regs. And they let GI to do their own specialty stuff. That Bourbon County is awesome and i usually don't like bourbon barrels
Sure. Sounds good. You punch out everyday. How about try diff beers?
Good advice. I'm cheap and Amberbock is happy hour priced with the usual domestics at my watering hole. To be honest, I didn't read the earlier posts. Fat Tire was ok with me. Question: Does Amberbock (two tall drafts) make me feel older/worse than say two gooseneck buds? Daily basis/overall health.
Went to Schnitz brewing in Jasper IN today. Pretty good beer these guys brew. Have went head to head with these guys before in the Straseenfest home brew contest for several years. They opened a small brewery in Jasper recently and also have really good pizza there.
The IPA is my favorite and always buy a 4 pack of cans when I'm in the area.
If any of yall are ever in that area should check them out. Although I think their operation hours is freaking dumb. Who opens a brewery/restaurant at 4pm?

Ugh my sister in law just went to 3 floyds and got a case of zombie dust and a 6er of gumball head - unbelievable.
Prob 60 - I think it's 10 bucks for a 6er if you buy it there plus tax.
I went there once and there were people carrying cases out of their beer sales side area left and right.
I am a beer simpleton. I have no problem admitting that. I don't drink much anyway. I still enjoy reading this thread from time to time though and have sampled a few of the suggestions from this thread now and again. So keep up the good work, gentlemen.
Back to me being a beer simpleton...i have been enjoying West Sixth IPA and Sam Adams Rebel IPA lately.
Carry on…

Cases are 40. 6ers are 10. I usually drop 120 on carry out every time I go haha. Well if Zombie Dust is available. They only bottle it on certain days so it's not available everyday.
Can't say I blame you. I just tried zombie dust for the first time last summer. It was almost impossible to find. Finally my buddy got some and let me have one. I've tried so many beers that never lived up to the hype so I wasn't expecting much. Boy was I wrong. It really was the real deal. I don't know how they do it but it is so balanced. Never had anything like it which is saying a lot because I pride myself on trying to taste every beer in existence.
I make a pretty dang close clone of it. That and the Gumballhead clone. It's usually on tap in my house all summer.
Balance of malt sweetness and hop bitterness. Copious amounts of Citra hops.
Sounds good to me. I'm not a brewer but just a diligent guinea pig. How many batches did it take to get it that close?
One. You can find recipes on the Internet for just about anything. Most are legit.
First nice day of Spring this past Friday (for where I live, anyways).. had to grab a Hell Or High Watermelon at the local spot.
Im beginning to like all watermelon beers. Been drinking growers of nice melons lately. Pretty solid.
Spent a few hours at Braxton brewery last night. 16 beers to choose from. The sheer spectrum was well represented. Yesterday's headlines was the beer I liked the most. It's a pretty good sour. They also had a Graters ice cream raspberry chocolate chip stout they I've been wanting to try. I was really disappointed in that order one. It just tasted like a average stout to me. I couldn't taste any raspberry. Other than that Braxton is one of the better breweries around cincy. Really cool hangout.
I visited the Omaha, NE area this past weekend. Hit up Benson Brewing in Midtown with relatives. Decent suds. Debut IPA really stood out. Drove out near University of Iowa and sampled a couple local brews at 30hop with @UKGrad93 . Yard Sale IPA by Lion Bridge tasted especially nice. Good burger, too. I brought back six Nebraska-brewed beers on the plane in my hold-baggage. Plan on drinking a few this coming weekend.
Yeah I would think trying to get raspberry out of a stout with chocolate in it would be a difficult recipe. Coffee and or chocolate are my go to's when I'm making stouts. Oh yeah. And alcohol. Imperial stouts are the best haha
Big news coming from my hometown of Alexandria ky. Alexandria brewing co will be breaking ground very soon on our very first brewery. Huge for me because there isnt a brewery with in 15 to 20 miles of my house.
I'd bet Blank Slate by Lunken Airport and Wooden Cask in Newport are both less than 15 miles. Enjoyed them both.
Been drinking the crap out of this lately. $10 a 6-pack at Kroger @ 9.6%. 
Austin- just had a funky buddha Awake Ne Up imperial maple bacon porter 11%. Incredible

Finally sampled Bell's Oberon. One of the better wheats out there that's not brewed in Germany. Gorgeous cloud. Nice, subtle fruity notes. Those who have been following 'Great Beer' threads over the years know how much I enjoy good wheat beer.

Two weeks ago i had a Bell's 30th anniversary imperial stout. Whoa was it delicious
Man, wish we could get that style in ATX. Perhaps later when Bell's starts fully distributing out here. We still haven't seen Hopslam yet.
My son is stationed in Tacoma WA. Can't wait to go visit so I can try some of the west coast beer we can't get here. Pliny the Elder is on top of my list.
