Stories of loved ones taking care of you.

My girl has these in her cellar for us...Bourbon Vanilla Dark Lord...BA Behemoth...Murda'd Out Stout...yeah...she's a keeper. [/humblebrag]

 

I once almost died from a virus. My girlfriend at the time took me to the emergency room. 3 days in the hospital. We broke up a few years later.

 

My sister lived in Tampa. Last year she went to Hunahpu Day for me, even though she doesnt know the first damn thing about beer. Also got me some bottles of BA Church on a Hill. She's a keeper.

 

"her cellar" "for us"
so you dont drink them without her

 

R

Right...it is currently a long distance thing...I have a ton of stuff in my cellar that I won't touch without her.

 

well. that's definitely one way to make long distance relationships work, RANSOM!

 

When the wife went to the supermarket and saw something she thought I liked, I got a call. But I drove her crazy asking her to look for the bottled on or best by date so she has stopped looking and calling. My loss I guess - but the supermarket always has the oldest beer so I wanted to be careful.
But now she will gladly go get growlers filled for me since there's no date to look for.

 

Hm. My girlfriend hates beer which means I get to have more for myself. That's a pretty good service, I'd say.

 

How’s this for a wife??? she took my son to the specialists at a D.C. and Philly hospital 2 day trip... after which she diverted to a bottle shop out of route and got me my first ever NN, Hopslam, and 2 btls of Consecration & Supplication.........women is a natural born care giver... Damn me and my son are lucky.

 

My Nephew and His wife always bring a case of Pliny and Blind Pig when they come up for a visit from Napa. They love Rogue XS Stout, so I always buy a few cases for them to take home.

 

Best thing I got from a family member was probably my home brew setup from my dad.

My wife is also great at hooking me up. Not only is my stocking full of beer at Xmas, but she brings beer home for me from grocery shopping all the time.

Add in my cousin-in-law who ships me beer from Chicago, and I've got a pretty cool family.

 

My bf always drives so I get to drink more whenever we're out Also, while I normally buy my own stuff, he always pays for dinner so whenever we're at a brewery or having beer with dinner, it's free for me <3

 

My girlfriend just started working at Iron Hill, so I expect in the coming months to be the beneficiary of many discounted growlers and burgers. I think employees have early access to bottle releases too. The perks they get make me a little jealous. If I ever need a night and weekend job that will be the first place I apply.

 

My parents have stopped at Bruisin Ales in Asheville, NC twice for me on their way back to IL from Myrtle Beach, and have brought beers back from their place in AZ as well.

 

My parents are going to Hunahpu Day for me.

 

My girlfriend came with me to Vermont this past weekend. She waited in the car for an hour and a half while I was in line at Hill Farmstead and didn't complain at all. Also, we went to Three Penny Taproom and the Alchemist. Needless to say, she's a keeper.

 

That's super legit!

 

My wife is on a business trip and just spent 45 minutes on her phone with me reading all the Bottled On dates for every IPA at a Whole Foods in Louisiana. Hope she drives safely....

 

my girlfriend drove my drunk ass around to every brewery in San Diego

that's love
