    I am out of town on a professional development trip for two days, and stumbled into a Friar Tuck's. After arrival, I figured out they have just about everything. It took me about 45 minutes to see all varieties and I changed my mind 4-5 times. With my self-diagnosed, adult-onset ADHD, I thought the best plan of attack would be find out something I want, and then find it there when I return. I would save time over the...oh that looks good I'll get that, but is it better than the last one I said that about? Throw out a couple I should look for and I will request. Thanks for your help.

    P.S. Is anyone else dealing with the post 40's ADHD brought on by being surrounded by crazy people?
    And I did pick up Millstream Octofest (wonderful), and Ommegang Rare Vos chilling.

    I was lookng at IL distributuion. I would recommend anything from Maine Beer Company, as long as you check out the Bottled on Dates. Then checkout Victory and Evil Twin. I have ADHD and I stay away from most Coffee stouts.

    Knowing what i know at this current date.
    If I walked in there and they had just about everything I would get the hard to find beers first, followed by out of state so forth and so on.

    Look at the Best By dates on the shoulder of the beer. I made the mistake one time, long ago. I didnt check out the Best By date on a Hop Devil. I busted its cap and got a mouth full of Mediocrity. Then I tried Hop Devil at the brewpub in Downngtown. I had a Hopgasm when I sipped it.
