    Anyone know if the Santa Fe Java Stout made it to Austin? Would love to try some of that.

    My understanding is that its coming, but I dont think its here yet. Apparently the distributor wants to wait until the weather cools down a little bit. But I have good word that its coming.

    I know this might be a stretch, but with the change in TX label laws anyone know if we might see Augustiner beers here. IMO the best of the Munich beers.

    Anyone know where I could procure the SKA Autumnal Mole Stout in Houston? It sounds delicious as hell!

    I think I saw it at CM Westgate today. I bumped into their Ben E Keith rep who's often there at the same time as me early in the morning. He was pointing out some new arrivals but after the excesses of the past two weeks I was trying my best not to hear what he was saying by sticking my fingers in my ears and going "Weewooweewooweewoo".

    Didn't stop me from buying a Bitches Brew and a Full Sail Big Daddy J's Malt Liquor though :flushed:

    Also saw some of that this morning.

    Did they have any more BBXIV? I'd love to grab another bottle next time I'm up north.

    Let us know in the Jester King thread how the carbonation is on that Weasel Rodeo... there's been some issues with bottles (namely mine and a few others) that had no carbonation at all.

    Got mine at Specs on westhiemer/old farm. I think 9.99/6pk

    make sure you drink my itself or with mexican food. Tried my first one with an italian sandwich without thinking and it was crap. next time by itself it was good, and when I had it with chipotle, it was really good...lol
