    Agree with Lot One, The Lift has a back patio and an ok selection on tap. DBQ isn't much for craft beer. Champps had BCBS 2 months ago.. probably still on tap.

    As for East Dubuque, Vans and Family liquor. Although the last time I was at Family Liquor the craft beer selection wasn't as great and they didn't have stuff organized. Not sure what was going on at the time. Hopefully it's better now

    Definitely, one of the reasons I mostly just buy cellarable styles there.

    Did you check the date. Our HyVee still had some from December.

    Sorry... Should have mentioned that. Surprised you can't read my mind :slight_smile:. I was referring to the DSM market.

    Has all the Hopslam we've got in DSM been from the same canning date?

    I tried to go to ITR last Saturday at 4pm and it was an hour and half wait for a table. I would have stood near the bar but had a 2yr old with me so left... I would guess everywhere will be packed.

    Lot One or The Lift probably have the best selection of beers in town. Dubuque isn't great by any stretch of the word when it comes to craft. I know Lot One just tapped a keg of Todd yesterday. Jubeck has some solid offerings. It's a pretty small little taproom that's only open Thurs-Sunday. No TV's, to some that's a plus.

    Check out Jubeck New World Brewing. It is the only brewery in town. Decent brews and a pretty cool atmosphere. They play vinyl for their music.

    Looks like Carpe Diem made it to CR (MVR and Edge). Anyone know if the new batch of Todd dropped in EaIA?

    This XHops Gokd batch does not seem to be as good as B1

    Finally got to my growlers of Lion Bridge Disaster at Meaux and Surly Todd the Axeman from Hyvee. A week after a week in the fridge both were outstanding. Todd was better than the cans that I got Wednesday. And those cans tasted great. Great job by Lion Bridge, they haven't disappointed me yet. Next fill. Workman's Comp, and Turner Alley IPA
