Hey guys, apologize if this is something I could have found, but my sister in law just informed me that she would mule some beer from Columbus to Texas for me but is going shopping soon. What are some good beers she could bring home for me? I have so far: Columbus IPA (Bodhi if she is willing to do a growler) Brew kettle white raja Fatheads IPA and anything interesting Any other recommendations? I will probably tell her to just get whatever is barrel aged, sour, or interesting looking, but specific names would help from you guys. Thanks so much. Dustin
Do you guys get hopping frog? Doris and barrel aged boris are great. The dark horse variety ipa pack can still be found around town as well.
I love Elevator's Mogabi. A hoppy wheat beer. Also their Bleedimg Buckeye IPA. Lookers like you don't gt Troegg's in TX. Have her get some Nugget Necter. It may have lost a little of the hop profile but it is still fantastic! Also a bomber of their Flyimg Mouflan. The only ones out there are from 5/1/12 so they are malt bombs but great. And this beer is not being bottled this'd year.
It appears you like your IPAs, here are one's I would bring to Texas with me (which I am heading to Austin in June lo...): Columbus IPA, White Rajah, Fat Head Headhunter, Founders Double Trouble, Bells Two-Hearted, GLBC Alchemy, Victory Hop Wallop, BP Sculpin (probably in TX though), Three Floyd's if you can find it....
Mt. Carmel Nut Brown Ale is pretty solid - Rivertown's lambics are still floating around Columbus as well, and are definitely worth checking out.
