OK News #1 (new forums)

Choco, you are correct about my likes in Belgian beer. I also love the bottle art from Choc. Please try the beer and let me know what you think!

 

Will do brotha!

Any words on the Jolly Pumpkin front ? I've bought way too
much Oro over the past few months, &
I'm hoping for Luciernaga the Firely to get in before this
heat spell is over with. Also rumors of a 2nd batch of La Roja
are floating around, but I don't have my fingers crossed.
Love to hear more info from anyone who has it (I'm looking at you Herf)

 

Has anyone heard of a brewery opening up in Ardmore?

 

They are posted as "In planing" as Belgian Bear. That being said, anyone can be "in Planing" if you call the BA and tell them.

 

I am really liking this this year's Arrow Head Pale Ale

 

^ Second!

Session '33 is eyeballing me in this Ethanol free
gas station I go to for only 6.99...anyone have thoughts on it?

 

BA shows that as 4% abv. How can they sell it in a gas station? And I would personally grab the Blvd. Pils elsewhere for the same price or less. That's just me.

 

4% ABV = 3.2% ABW

 

My rule is no low ABV beer from across the pond unless wanting to roll the dice. That stuff doesn't travel well, unless near the East Coast, even then... I just never buy beer in state unless I am at a honest to goodness Liqour store, even then I try to hold out for ones praised here on BA

 

I wish one of our local breweries would brew a bottle conditioned 3.2 English style mild and/or bitter. I would buy that non-stop.

 

New JP in stores! Can't believe no one has posted about this yet...

 

I can. What I can't believe is it took you this long. You're usually Johnny On The Spot with this stuff. ;-)

 

hahahahahahaha
you got me, bud!

opening 'em up tonight!

 

Do we still get Flying Dog's Double Dog Pale Ale in Oklahoma?
I've checked a couple stores and nobody seems to have it.

 

I'veseen some old old Canis major packs At Party City
On the southside

 

Not that I am aware..Since FD moved to Maryland our beers from them have been extremely limited. Last time I checked, the broker said we would no longer be receiving it. If this means forever, I have no idea, I guess all we can do is wait and see. What I do know is that OK is getting some amazing Belgians lately. Hopefully we expand our Shelton Bros portfolio. I would LOVE to see more from Mikkeller, Nogne, and JP

 

Luciernaga the Firefly is next in line!

 

Yessir it is!

 

Has anyone seen any Oktoberfest beers on Oklahoma shelves yet?

 

Yes We have ALL of the American Craft brews in OK that have an Oktoberfest (Sam, leine, Shiner, Choc, Newcastle, Sierra Nevada, Point etc) waiting on more of the imports...(Paulaner, Warstiner, Hofbrau etc)
