    Hey guys, I just got back in town for a summer session before my senior year and just looking to connect with some other BA's in this somewhat beer desert (with the exception of Obannon's, an oasis for me.) Anyway, just putting out my feelers. Cheers, and as always, Gig 'Em

    I'm a senior at A&M as well. Wish CS was more beer friendly for us BA's. Let me know if you ever want to get a tasting together. I have a list of my cellar on my website. Check it out and we can get something lined up.

    Cheers and Gig Em!

    Impressive cellar for a college senior! Will you be going to Harvey Washbangers tonight for the JK Weasel Rodeo?

    Unfortunately I won't... I am out of town for my brothers stock the bar party. I've heard good things about Harvey Washbangers from the beer guy at Specs. I like to see they have some decent brews on tap considering the only other place in town is Obannons and that is hit or miss IMO. I gave them another shot when they had Mysterium Verum about 3 weeks ago. Had to hit them up for 3 consecutive days

    Let me know how it goes tonight though. If you don't mind, shoot some pics or send me a list of what other beers they have on tap so I can check it out when I get back to CS. I had the Weasel Rodeo a few weeks ago at the JK brewery. Pretty good beer considering it is a collab between them and Mikeller which IMO are two average at best breweries

    Cool to see this. I'd no idea Harvey Washbanger's had any selection, of course I've never been... Glad to see some CstatBA's.

    They mostly carry Texas craft beers, Southern Star/Live Oak/etc.. but its the only place that will let you fill up a growler, which I love.

    I'm jumping in on this thread. Good to see a solid BA presence in CS. Here are the games I'm going to if any of you guys want to have a bottle share, meet up at a tailgate, or do some IP trades.

    Florida
    LSU
    Mizzou
    Auburn
    Ole Miss

    I definitely would love to meet Champaynes and the rest of you guys. We tailgate in lot 61.

    Backatchya man! September 8th can't get here fast enough! I'd love to follow through on that trade we talked about last semester (and IP is certainly easier on my college-sized wallet :slight_smile: ) I'll shoot you a BM in a bit.

    Not in CS anymore, but I'm down for most weekends (football games, visiting family, etc.). After spending 22 years of my life there, I still consider it my home.

    Can anyone recall Divine Reserve or Pumpkinator making it's way to CS in the past? I had DR 11 once on tap at O'bannon's but can't remember seeing either in bottle. Thanks!

    DR 11 and Pumpkinator both made it here. Spec's and HEB in CS and Village Foods in Bryan got both in.

    DR 12 will be at Specs on Tuesday. Not sure about time, though.

    They were out by 1pm yesterday. I went at 10am, got a number for a 6pack since they told me they didn't have it yet, came back at 1 and they had sold it. I was pretty angry, luckily they had 1 bomber left. Apparently Village Foods sold out fairly quickly too.
