Grocery stores with good beer selections have it. I've seen it at Winn Dixie and Publix.

At least the weather is gonna be fine. I'll be leaving soon for Montgomery. I am not going to be able to hit that package store in Mobile, but hope to find a Publix near our hotel with a good beer selection.

The hopzilla is has advertised, very hoppy.

The Fait lux was a good switch. Very refreshing with a bubble gum aroma

What are we drinking this summer? Combining Canadian and American malts with a large proportion of un-malted white winter wheat, Fiat Lux starts with a Belgian witbier inspiration. A blend of Pacific Northwest hops, a little lime peel and a dash of Indian coriander brings a bright blast of citrusy aromatic sunshine, while German Perle hops supply a nice big zap of refreshing bitterness. Brooklyn Fiat Lux is great with everything you’re cooking and eating this summer (it’s not that great with beef stew… but you’re not eating beef stew) from barbecue to burgers, from crawfish to salmon. And it’s mighty nice with goat cheese. Have a great summer, folks. And yes, we admit it – we really do love walking into places, declaring “Fiat Lux!” and making it so.
Malts: Canadian and American two-row malts, American Madsen un-malted white winter wheat
Additions: Lime peel, Indian coriander
Hops: Cascade, Chinook, Columbus, Centennial, Perle
Yeast: Levure Belgique
Alcohol by Volume: 6.1%
Availability: August-October


Even a little shout out to Crawfish...in September?

I had a great wet hop beer with Simcoe hops from Magnolia brewery. They also had a Amarillo hop version. I also had one of their bitters. Good stuff.
