    I'll be coming to MN in two weeks and i'll be going back and forth between Brooklyn Park and St Paul. Any suggestions on beers to get, stores/breweries to visit, or if you want to do an IP trade for something down here just comment or BM me. I'm assuming theres no chance i'll get my hands on KBBS or Rum King, but i'm trying to grab as many good stouts or IPAs as possible. Thanks!!

    pirate bomb hits texas next week so i should get my hands on a couple. Depends on the quantity we get. I live in austin so I can drive to Jester King, dont have any at home cuz i dont drink sours. What are you looking for?

    That would be awesome! I've never tried anything from Jester King so whatever is popular would be cool. I have some stouts from Founders or Bells in the cellar (not sure if you get those in TX) otherwise for local items I have a fruit beer from New Glarus in WI (Serendipity). IPAs I'm guessing whatever you could get at stores here would be the same things I'd be able to wrangle up

    yeah my inbox started blowing up after this post. Jester King posts their To Go menu on Thursdays...the brewery is only open fri-sun. You'll find the menu here, its last week's right now but will be updated tomorrow: http://jesterkingbrewery.com/tasting-room/

    For local IPAs I would grab Steel Toe Size 7 (or their new Douglas cascasian dark ale is awesome) Summit Saga, anything from Surly, Indeed Day Tripper and Bent Paddle Day Pack are great pale ales too

    Fulton Worth Adversary and War and Peace can still be found pretty easily, those are worth checking out too.

    Make a stop into Dangerous Man and check out the Chocolate Milk Stout, only available at the tap room, Indeed is also close by. While you are at it, make sure to stop at Town Hall Brewery as well.
