    Actually if you look on the far left side and zoom in you can read that it's Pumpkinator aged in rum barrels. I didn't see it the first time.

    Not to completely de-rail this thread...

    but if we're talking pizza - I have to recommend Candelari's. Best in town in my opinion, only downside is that it's definitely on the pricey-side for pizza. The Italian sausage is amazing.... and their signature pizza called "the wrigley" is stellar....

    yum.... rum barreled pumpkinator? I'm definitely excited about this... there is not enough rum barrel aging going on... so many delicious Caribbean dark rum barrels that should be experimented with...

    I'm a big fan of Dolce Vita for nice pizza and Barry's (still) for deep dish. I say 'still' because if you haven't been in the last decade (like the vast majority of Houstonians) and forgot it existed, it does, and they're putting out good deep dish. I think they had BB5 this time around as well.

    we will be getting cases throughout all next week. call ahead to see how much is left. will be six per visit until we run completely dry.

    on a side note, Fat Bao will be giving away a very VERY special bottle next week in honor of Houston Beer Week. I will be donating the bottle - details will be annouced early Monday. As a little hint, the bottle will have indigo wax, be hand wrapped in paper, and have a bird on it. follow fat bao Houston and fat bao sugarland to find out whats up.

    again, no, i don't work for them in any way, but my old friends own the place, so i help out where i can.

    The lunch special is the beez-kneez, I always get the Memphis Bao (so damn good!) and the Curry beef bao with a miso ginger salad on the side. My gf is very fond of the crab bao.

    It's pretty damn good!
