I must've walked into about 8-10 different grocery/liquor stores in Perdio Key/Orange Beach looking specifically for this beer. No dice.


I know I got some at the Publix in Orange Beach last August.

I got a couple of bottles of their Two Hearted Ale a few months ago courtesy of tetu. Amazing beer.

Icansee4miles' mule is bringing some to BR soon and we were going to meet at midnight in the Matherne's parking lot for the exchange. Maybe we need to plan an exchange and tasting event.

But you can get Terrapin Wake-n-Bake if I'm not mistaken. I think I picked that up in Orange Beach a couple years ago around March time frame.

I tried Samuel Adams Alpine Spring, which is a new addition to its seasonal brews lineup (replacing Noble Pils). It's in the style of the Munich helles style lager. It was decent enough. I give it a B-.

They had this on tap where I stopped on the way home and I was tempted, but I stuck with a known quantity in NOLA Blonde.

I believe it's certainly worth a try, but I was more of a fan of Noble Pils. Being the hop head that I am, this is no surprise.

Unfortunately, it seems like it's been discontinued. It was my favorite from their seasonal lineup.

Absolutely. We need to plan a beer event soon. Maybe at tetu's place in Butte la Rose?

Seriously, we can meet at Marcello's one happy hour and bring in whatever or get stuff from the store--I have connections there.
