I read your response and thought, "I wrote that?"

I might be able to work something out with folks, but it would need to be a very easy exchange. I'll be there for graduation and beer is not worth driving all over the place for. FOR ME!

I'd like to. Doubt I will have time though. I won't be crushed if I have to stick with Georgia locals, but thought it would be fun to grab some from there, rare though they must be. (rare as in hard to get)

If I'm remembering you as the guy that came to one of our FBD tailgates a couple of years ago, if you've still got my contact info, get in touch and we can do a BXN, if you have some stuff from your part of the world. I've got some pretty good stuff to offer in stock right now. There are several suitable dumpsters around where we can meet to trade.

That would be me.

Sounds good. Let me see what I can come up with. I might be able to get Creature Comforts Tropicalia (IPA), Athena (Berliner Weisse) and Bibo (Pilsener).

I know you can get Terrapin there, but they have a 4 pack of Terrapin Coffee Stouts that you might not have. It is a sampler. 4 bottles each with a different coffee from a local Athens roaster.

Also, Monday Night, Service, Southbound, Red Brick, Wild Heaven, Red Hare.

You come alone. If I get even a sniff of a tail, I am gone.

While i don't care for mecha or canebrake, i will add...

Great Raft:
All My Tomorrows
Near and Far

Parish:
Grand Reserve

You can get all of this at Calandro's or Beverage Store. You may find it at Cuban, they just don't have much real estate for the beer selection.

I haven't tried any of tge beers you listed, but I will give them a shot. I'm a big fan of Smilin' Ivan when I can find it. I like it better than Old Rasputin.

Great Raft - Reasonably Corrupt
Bayou Teche - Acadie
NOLA - Mecha
Parish - Canebreak
Chappapeela Farms - Saison

Covering a pretty good spectrum with those five. The last one might be difficult to find.

Tigertown-shoot me an e-mail and let's figure out a time and what you might want. ISO Tropicalia and other IPA's although the coffee assortment sounds great. I'll send you back with some good stuff. Schedule is dicey between son's graduation Friday and Parish Saturday but we will make it happen.
