I'm going down to Memphis for the liberty bowl. What beers should I be looking for, and what are the best beer stores and breweries in both Memphis and west Memphis?
Astronauts status is going to be released on December 22 by wiseacres. You should definitely grab a bottle. Check out Joe’s wine and spirits
Do you think it'd be on the shelves on the 28th? That'll be when I'm down there. Also I'm a huge fan of the barrel aged Laikas from straight to ale, I know they distribute in Tennessee. Do they stay on the shelves long?
Joe's is best I can find they have all the basic stuff nothing special TBH though it does offer all the local cannings for the most part. I'd go for Astronaut Status. If you can't get one I can grab when I go and hold for ya.
Even a week later? I won't be there until the 28th. If not I can always trade, I'm sure my Iowa beers will be welcome. This and a few BA laikas are my key wants on the trip.
If they sell out they should have a restock by a week later. I’d call the brewery first for sure though
