Out of homebrew... thirsty...
|
|
All I've got left to drink is some "meh" vanilla oatmeal stout, it really doesn't sound all that good right now when its 100 degrees out. I normally wouldn't let this happen but I moved across the country so my brewing schedule is all out of wack.
I've got another 2-3 days before I can bottle my pale ale, so with bottle conditioning I'll be out for another 1.5 weeks at LEAST!
I just wanted to share my pain...
also, any suggestions about what to buy to tide me over? I'm in Dallas TX and I'm out of money because I spent my extra cash on a new carboy/hydrometer/thermometer that broke during the move.
I'm even tempted to buy Shiner Bock

Shiner Bock isn't a bad beer. Not in my opinion anyways.

Shiner is good, true, not my favorite and I also get a lot of crap from my friends when I buy it. BUT on the plus side, it IS the only beer my GF drinks (other than the Belgin Whit i made). So it does have that going for it.

It sounds like an emergency....
If funds are truly short and you have no way of enjoying some HB, then I won't tell anybody........
Go buy a zillion-pack of PBR for 2 bucks or whatever it is selling at these days! In these circumstances, I am sure the snobs can look the other way.

As far as good Texas beer goes. I love everything that St. Arnolds makes. You should check them out.

Lone Star beer. About as cheap as PBR and you can save the bottles for homebrew!

I second Lone Star, but everywhere I buy it in the Dallas area it is as expensive as Shiner or St. Arnold.
Where do you find cheap Lone Star other than San Antonio?

I wish I could find Shiner Bock up north here, SWMBO loved it when she tried it, I'll keep looking at the local six pack places!
