Okay - So I was wondering if there's a fellow CS-er out there that's:
A - heard of New Belgium Brews
B - Can get them in their town (specifically the summer seasonal release Skinny Dip)
C- would be willing to arrange some sorta deal to buy and ship to me (and earn a little commission on the side?)

Of course, if there's anything from down here in the sunshine state I can find for you in return, I'd be glad to do it.

If not - what's your favorite brew that only a few in the world know about? Mine is the aforementioned Skinny Dip, but also Fat Tire Ale (also by New Belgium).

I get New Belgium here. I'm not sure how many varities though. I know we have at least Fat Tire (which I've had and quite enjoy). I'm sure there are others if I really look. I can look and see if we have Skinny Dip.

Mmm...alcohol.

I've not drank in a while, come to think of it.

bbf2 · 06-20-2007, 08:49 PM

I might have a few sips of somethign, but I've never gotten drunk. Never have, never will.

That's what I used to say before I came to college.

Not mush of a beer drinker honestly. just give me something striaght. :p

though I have had Fat Tire. Not bad. If I was in colorado I know we have both. Here they never heard of it.

Boro · 06-21-2007, 12:01 AM

I'm not sure if we have it here. Maybe Jibs knows?

Anyways, Spotted Cow for the win!

Beer sucks!

Vodka all the way!

This seems like as good a place as any to ask [and forgive me, Pixi, for taking your thread hostage]. Has anyone had that Mint flavoured Bailey's Irish Creme? How does it taste? Is it really minty or what?

chewie · 06-21-2007, 02:13 PM

I just went up to the liquor store to buy some beer and noticed they had:
Flat Tire
Sunshine
Springboard

Thanks - let me know what you find out.

That means you'll probably get Skinny Dip soon - Springboard is the spring seasonal brew, the Skinny Dip is summer. Let me know if it pops up and you're interested in working out a domestic distribution ring for one person

Sam Adams has some good varieties. You might give them a look, pixi. I've never heard of New Belgium Brews. I'll give them a try if I come across them. I'm more of a rum and wine lover, but I like beer. Hooray Beer!

That sounds like it could be the yummiest flavor ever, or the most disgusting think to ever cross your tongue. But I'd like to try it.

Eh - I've given Sam Adams a go. There's something about the New Belgium beers that's just cleaner and crisper in my opinion. But yes, like you - I'm not a religious beer drinker... maybe that's why I'm so picky when it does come to the occasional beer I drink.

did you know that if you pour vodka on your feet it'll remove all foot odour?

discovery channel told me so. i thought it was interesting. and then i got really pissed at the person who wasted vodka by pouring it on their ****ing feet instead of drinking it.

06-22-2007, 12:25 PM

I'm pretty sure we have it here Pixi. I'll go check shortly
