    Got on a plane from Cleveland to Vermont. Does flying count?

    500 miles to Three Floyds
    600 miles to Founders

    Though I wasn't driving and we were going to visit my buddies family. There was no beer in particular I was seeking out at Founders, it was just to say I did :stuck_out_tongue:

    I was given $1,000 of "professional development" money from my employer to go to a conference. I picked Vermont because of beer, spent three days there, spent two driving around the state getting beer, and a 1/2 day at the conference. I'm not sure if that is "just for beer" or not. Probably not, but maybe close?

    Well, if I was in your position in your above post, I admit that I would have done the same.

    I regularly drive 2 hours round trip to VA for beer because WV sucks for beer.
