A blur. Also, like any trip where you just eat, drink, and hike, makes you wanna move there. Its hilarious how anyone in Texas or even a place like Austin thinks that the brewpub market is anywhere close to saturation. Sure, regional breweries are a thing of the past (for now), but nothing beats a neighborhood brewpub that sells 96% of what they brew in-house. Thats the kind of city I want to live in. Austin is as far away from being that kind of city as we are from colonizing Pluto. Our bnb was two blocks from Prost, so that was rad. Also, Our Mutual Friend might have been my favorite overall experience bw beer/taproom vibe. I didn't get to like a half dozen of the places I wanted to get to though. Denver is cool man. And Texas needs to legalize it.

Pleasantly surprised by the new coffee dubbel by Celis. They're batting like .133 now.

If we're gonna change out DSB bc apparently this is being done by MSU, I propose Nobody Does It Better by Carli Simon from The Spy Who Loved Me. Just ballady enough but with a good chorus. Or maybe The Fuck Shop.

If they only played Dont Stop Believing and Mo Bamba for the rest of DKRs existence, I'd be 1000% cool with that. As an old guy, sitting in the student section all year, that shit was ... lit. Bummed the home schedule is done. Great year to be a fan.

Still gets the biggest ovation at DKR during the 'NFL Longhorns' zillatron segment.

I'm going to Denver on Sunday for my birthday. First trip in 7 years without kids. I'm going to get so so so so so fucking drunk. But where? Brewery recs (besides Bierstadt and Prost, which i'm already horny about) please.

That was, uh, pretty sudden and didn't sound like a happy-to-be-moving-on-to-better-things tweet. Might have given up too large of a portion of FT to build FT2 and eventually forced out? Crazy.

JKs fruited sours are excellent, but if you're missing out on some of their non-fruit stuff because you think only the fruited/BA shit is "special" then that's kinda dumb. Le Petit is one of the best beers in Austin. Kollaborationsbier is quality and complex as fuck, especially for a pilsner. I'm not really gonna go through all their menu and tell you how neat JK is, but if you have a chance to grab some JK out of state and you have no plans to come to austin, its worth the 15 bucks for the non-sour stuff. As for the "tariff", I don't really think any JK fruited sour beer is priced very well but thats subjective. Also, I think Spon is definitely not worth the price and those are highly sought after fruited gueuzes

one of my very good friends just moved out to lubbock from austin to start a brewery. poor guy. but all his beer i've had of his has been pretty great, plus he's pretty QC/marketing savvy. I'd imagine it being like a southern heights out west.

hepa is a sight for bleeding eyes off the ball. i'm sure his eagerness for off ball movement will be killed by shaka by conference
