    Tried Real Ales WallBall IPL today. Hit the spot after doing yard work, but not getting the mad hops taste as the can implies. Still not a bad one to add to the Texas summer beers lineup.

    Thanks for the post, these are the kind of places I was hoping to come across. That Schoolhouse in Eola may be the ticket since it looks like there is a good chance of rain on Saturday and my outdoor plans will be called off.

    That was a solid effort in singles today. Was at the USC match and watched on LHN today, doubles were not good at either of those. Are those teams that good or was Texas just off those days? Have not seen earlier matches but they must have done well enough to be ranked where they are. Will be tough on the road if they are playing from 0-1.

    Linky linky? Just go to Candy Warehouse.com
  5. Mr.Hovis
    Well my bad, I thought it was already light.

    I wish I still had all of my old National Lampoon mags from the 70's. In a way it's like they prepared me for Surly. Still miss my monthly reading of Bernie X, My Meter Is Running.

    Thanks for the input, but unless they have their moms with them I won't have anyone in my age range . Going to take my chances at the SoCo Taphouse or Zero One Ale House, those keep coming up on searches. What could go wrong?
  8. Mr.Hovis
    Yeah, I can't get out of this trip but it's only for two days. Was hopeful that I could at least get a decent burger and beer at one of the local places. Forgot to check the Surly small town link, maybe there's hope yet.

    Going to be in San Angelo April 5-6, been through it a few time but only stopped for gas. Did a search for brew pubs / tap rooms and looks like there might be some decent options. Who's been and whatcha got?
  10. Mr.Hovis
    Yeah, it was a great video, but Everything Must Go is the least familiar of all their work to me. Gotta give it a listen again
  11. Mr.Hovis
    Love SD, so many great tunes and always top notch musicians on their recordings/live shows. Hard to pick favorites from such deep and diverse catalog but Chain Lightning, Any Major Dude come to mind. Rick Derringer with the solid guitar work on Chain Lightning. The video they did to promote Everything Must Go is hilarious. Cab rides with the Dan in Vegas(I think) really shows their quirky sense of humor. They are in their own musical category for me.

    Apolitical Blues. Little Feat with Mick Taylor from Waiting For Columbus is my favorite version.
  13. Mr.Hovis
    Just had a Tupps Series 8 TDH IPA. So good, not even gonna complain about their pricing anymore. Ask a beer guy stocking the cooler about when to expect to see Electric Jellyfish on the shelves, was told that has been put on hold for the near future. Anyone else heard this? I thought they were already canning for distribution at the new Round Rock location.

    Saw one of those weight loss commercials with Marie Osmond. Would, if she didn't speak.
  15. Mr.Hovis
    Picked up some Spindleltap Houston Haze at South Austin Central Market. I'm liking it.
  16. Mr.Hovis
    Seeing all of these old candy brands from my childhood and did a search to see if they still make them. Apparently Candy Warehouse has them all. Even still have the candy/gum cigarettes for aspiring young smokers. Who knew?
  17. Mr.Hovis
    Kinky Cheesy
  18. Mr.Hovis
    You won the Silver!
  19. Mr.Hovis
    Love me some Werther's. Got to have a bag or two of those for road trips. I'm such a whore for 'em though, as soon as one melts I'll be reaching for another.
  20. Mr.Hovis
    Surly candy smack not going away. Frozen Sugar Babies and a sling shot could settle this. Just sayin'.
  21. Mr.Hovis
    So was it determined that Leaning Pear is the best/most reliable nice restaurant in Winberley proper then? I need closure , and not to thread jack but would like to hear more recs for far SW Austin along Hwy.290 west to Dripping Springs and surrounding area. I'm hoping for a good beer/food venue to take over that big ass Trudy's that shut down.
  22. Mr.Hovis
    Well, a Big Hunk will murder any dental work, so that's fair.
  23. Mr.Hovis
    I like the dark chocolate bars that are spicy and with caramel/sea salt. Brand doesn't matter, wife will buy a bunch of these from World Market, Trader Joe's etc. Same with chocolate nuts and cashews in particular. Still enjoy a Butterfinger too.
  24. Mr.Hovis
    Don't know the HCS owners but have a mutual friend who is in real estate and mentioned they were considering or may have bought the tract of land behind them. Will be interesting to see what they do with that if true. After they expanded to put the bar and outdoor area in I don't think I've been back in the original building. Good selection of beers and consistent food/service every time we've been. Nice days can be crowded but hey, grab a drink and chill , people watch and such.
  25. Mr.Hovis
    Well, I have partial recall. Train but no bridge, thanks for keeping things on track.
