    Just moved to Austin Texas from NC. I am surprised to see some beers that I thought were only for the gods..... such as the Dogfish 120. What other beers can I get here that were not in NC? Is Russian River available in Texas? Pliny? Will I still be able to find Bells out here?

    The only Russian River we have ever recieved was Brux, but that doesn't really count because that was a Collab

    No Michigan beers here and it kills me because I moved from Michigan to Austin 3 years ago. Thankfully my Dad ships beer to me often. His recent shipment was a case of Backwoods Bastard and 12 BCBS.

    I love it fresh but yes, it is great with age. I was home for thanksgiving and have 2 boxes that I beat home with a great selection. I can hook you up with a bottle for aging just BM me.
