| Little Mara's all grown up.
Fat tire is a pretty solid "middle of the road" beer. I approve. |

Severely overpriced.

| Just got back from the liquor store where I picked up a bottle of Rancho Alegre Reposado. The owner (who it turns out is a distant cousin) says it's as good as Patron and if I didn't like it I could bring it back and he'd exchange it.
Figure at $20~ for the big bottle, 100% Agave, and the approval of my newly found cousin I can't go wrong....
More after 5pm.

| Anyone here fans of St. Arnold's? Saint Arnold Brewing Company - Texas' Oldest Craft Brewery
I figured the CGR crowd would like the artwork, at least. It's great beer, but not as good as Great Lakes and some other microbreweries. I am fond of their Elissa IPA and Amber. I miss it so much, being in Taiwan and all... |

| I've tried St. Arnolds. I had their Christmas Ale when it was that time of year. It was quite enjoyable. I'll drink it again next year.

| I got a 6 pack of this. I think it's fantastic. I will be buying another 6 pack while it's in season. |
