Craft Beer and Southwest Airlines

[NTXBrauer]

Southwest Airlines has inked a deal with New Belgium Brewery and is now serving Fat Tire on all their flights. How nice it will be to have the option of a decent craft beer when in the air.

Way to go Southwest, Frontier and Alaska Airlines for taking a step in this direction and offering craft beer in your beverage line up.

At flight level 60, that would freeze parts of one's anatomy that I'd rather keep intact.

Yeah,hence my remark. All in good fun,it can't happen for other reasons as well. But craft beer in the air is def a step in the right direction. If it were possible,you could indeed pee down someones back. coming from the sky,he'd have to admit it was raining...

I know that due to the low cabin pressure, your tastebuds tend to become much less sensitive, although I'm not sure what length of time this requires. So either you order one to enjoy right away, or save your cash with a BMC...

The other good news for flying Southwest in and out of Love Field (Dallas) is that the idiotic Wright Amendment goes away in October.

Absolutely..This is a wonderful thing. Direct flights for first 15 cities were announced yesterday.

The good thing, is Fat Tire is the same price as BMC. No increase in price makes it that much better.

Free Craft Beer on Alaskan Air out of Portland, They even gave me the big bottle to finish. Outstanding.

I've been waiting to here more about this. I hate flying but when I do, I try to fly SW when I can.

I am flying them next week from Dallas Love to Denver. On the way out, I have to stop in Amarillo. On the way back, I get to stop in Tulsa. Yippee.

I had Ninkasi Oatis on an Alaskan flight once. That was nice.

Unfortunately, the only Airline I have enough status on to get the occasional upgrade is American, and I see them being likely to be the last airline in the country to follow this trend...

I plain ole just hate flying, and unless there is NO other way possible, I will only fly direct. SW is supposed to add a ton of direct flights.
