    Have some friends out there for the weekend and I'm looking to have them mule me some goodies. What is the best of the best that is available out there right now?

    Still have some Uncle Jacobs and BButte XXV. Backcountry 6ers are more than solid.

    Can't go wrong with Odell: St Lupulin, Myrcenary, IPA, Cutthroat Porter. Won't have any issues finding them.

    Second Backcountry's Pale Ale and the Crooked Stave.

    Skip the spring St. Bretta's and just go for the Paradox and Elevation on shelfs. Everything from CS (besides Spring) is great, but BA Elevation and Paradox's Trippel, Brown, Whiskey Stout, Skully No. 2 (and No. 3 from what I hear) are some of the best beers in CO. If you ask me, Avery, Great Divide and Paradox are the best breweries in CO, but you really can't wrong with any beer from CO's best breweries. Those breweries are (bottling/ canning-wise), in my view, the 3 I mentioned, Crooked Stave, O'Dell, Grimm, Elevation, Trinity, River North, Oskar Blues and Dry Dock.

    Ah-ha. Yeup, they're gone! Thanks for coming in. If they were still there by next week I would have bought 'em up, so you saved me money! :confused:

    Now you're tempting me to break my "unless I'm going to DIA I don't go east of Colorado Blvd" rule

    This round isn't coming to Colorado, unfortunately. As far as the Avery demons go, The Beast just came out a month ago so it should still be around at some places.
