    Ok more of a question on what they have available. Is this what they have right now? I apologize if this is obvious, the color coding is throwing me off.

    PS. Can you believe she is going WITHOUT ME. Cause I can't! Bah, girl friends these days.

    Serendipity and Raspberry tart for sure.

    Just have her bring back everything.

    Haha I wish I had the fundds for that. I am a poor underemployed college grad trying to go to grad school... aka working tomorrow and don't have the $$$ for her to bring me back everything. I have Serendipity here thanks to my older brother, but I'll ask for some Raspberry tart definitely.

    Coffee stout is pretty good, can't go wrong with the Serendipity and Raspberry tart. Also a 4-pack of the Winter Warmer. Moon Man is a solid everyday brew.

    They do mix-a-six of any of their year-rounds and seasonal brews, so you can get one of everything on a decent budget.

    Also, they have church key style bottle openers for $5 each, and tasting-size glasses for like $1 or $1.50. People have bought me much worse key chain sized bottle openers and spent more money, so I consider the NG ones an awesome value. For reference, Revolution charges $10 for pretty much the same thing.

    I thought last week they still had some Enigma, if that is the case, yum yum.

    I also have winter warmer here so no need on winter warmer and Serendipity. So I think maybe Raspberry Tart, Apple Ale, and maybe Coffee Stout or Cabin Fever.

    Edit: Girlfriend is poorer than me, so I may be getting NOTHING!

    I'd ask for the Cabin Fever. Their Back Forty Bock was really good last Fall, so I would imagine that the addition of clover honey to it would make sensational.

    On a side note, did they replace Road Slush this year with the Coffee Stout? Man, did I just lose Fat Squirrel and Road Slush in the same year?

    And I'm seconding on the bottle openers. My favorite opener is a magnetic NG one shaped like bottle cap. Good quality and doesn't scream bottle opener when displayed.

    Thanks all. A mix and match of Cabin Bieber Fever, Appel Ale, Raspberry Tart and a cool bottle opener! Sahweeet.

    If you like Pales I must insist you try the Moon Man, the greatest pale I have ever tasted and continue to taste on a weekly basis:wink:

    Coffee Stout...get it now, while you can...alternates yearly with Road Slush...Snowshoe Ale is another good seasonal...also would highly recommend the year~round Moon Man...haven't tried Cabin Fever yet.

    Raspberry tart and you can live without all of the rest of the meh beers they have. The snowshoe and coffee stout are both disappointing along with their winter warmer that is obviously no where near a Scottish ale.

    Sickening that Fat Squirrel is gone. Tired of them halting production of their best beers. Fat Squirrel, Yokel, Uff-Da, and Edel Pils.

    Fat Squirrel was like currency in my family. My brothers and I had a tradition of sharing bottles of it every Thanksgiving while one of them fries the turkey. I'm really going to miss that this year .
