    So where are all the Phoenix/AZ people at? I see tons of Texas and NM but would be nice to see some dialog with some Arizona people, set up a bottle share. And anyone else on AZCBL on FB?

    Right? Not much going on here with AZ stuff! Always down for a bottle share, I've got too many big bottles for just me haha.

    Yeah, with as much that is going on in the craft beer community here (including new breweries, more beers from out-of-state being distributed etc.), you'd think there would be much more PHX-related activity on the board. I think that Facebook craft beer groups are where most of the communication is taking place (which sucks since I've proudly kept myself off of Facebook so far).

    Maybe @dust_bunny can add to the conversation. I'll be moving to Tucson from Dallas in January. I'd probably be willing to make the trek up to Phoenix on the weekend. Also, I try to contribute a good amount of Texas content and plan to kick it up a notch for Arizona after the move.

    Cool nice to know guys, the Arizona Craft Beer Lovers page is great on Facebook if you go that route and even has a bunch of Tucson folks/events on it. Yeah I've messaged with Dustin before and with Josh aka jolly but we should set up some sort of bottleshare. It seems like a lot of the people I meet are already in bottleshare groups and they get kind of secretive about it for whatever stupid reason.

    I've met up with @sonsofauerbach in the past for a bottle share, super chill guy. We just hit up a Thai restaurant in Tempe that is BYOB and did it that way haha. Same here though @Kylo76, most people I ask about bottle shares get all flakey and sketchy.

    I live in NorCal but will be coming out to see the family for Thanksgiving week, 11/23-11/28, in Scottsdale. Would be up for a bottle share or anything else beer related that week. Happy to bring out some some CA beers to share!

    Good friend lives in PHX and I'm pretty jealous of him sometimes. I did a beer-based bachelor party there, and he also brings out growlers to So Cal every once in a while. I'm a huge fan of FATE (double oatmeal pale is fantastic). Also, on a somewhat related note since it's only a couple hours(?) away, I'm also in love with Dragoon.

    Dragoon is really good too(Tucson) 1 1/2 hours away for me, lots of good breweries here just can't wait till some of them start bottling. Fate just did a Candy Bar Milk Stout for Halloween that is incredible. They're tapping batch two this week I need to grab another growler, let me know if you want one haha.

    Any interesting non/shelf type brews from Phoenix or AZ breweries worth trading for? I'm gonna be there next month and wouldn't mind an IP trade when I'm in town if it's something worthwhile.

    I've only been in PHX for a few months now. I did bring quite a few good bottles with me from FL but almost all of them have been shared with family and friends in the area and Southern CA. Unfortunately funds are extremely tight right now so I haven't been able to indulge in the local scene the way I used to, but hopefully it will get easier in the near future.
