    Heading to Chicago

    I phrased my original post wrong. I don't plan to go to the breweries, I just want to search the beers out and give them a try. I have had plenty of 3 Floyd's as my bro-in-law lives in Indy. I was hoping to pick some up to take home but have heard it can be scarce. Any suggestions on where to...

    Brugge in May.. hotel suggestions?

    Good call. I think you will enjoy it. Breakfast was great and the advantage of the merged hotels is you get to eat right on the canal. The wife and I had a blast in Brugge and if I can figure out how to post pictures I will try and do so. Highliights; Tripel Karmeliet while eating dinner on...

    Brugge in May.. hotel suggestions?

    Yes it is the same. I guess they merged or something, I'm not sure what happened but it is the same building and really worked out great for my wife and I. I originally read about the hotel in Tim Webb's "Good beer guide to Belgium" which I highly recommend if you dont already have it. I booked...

    Brugge in May.. hotel suggestions?

    I was just there last night and stayed at Hotel Erasmus which was great. Great price for the location (1 block from the square) and updated hotel with good sized room. All of Brugge is relatively close together, you can walk anywhere in about 5 minutes so location is isnt terribly important. All...

    Ever have a credit card number stolen???

    I've never had any issue with AHS and will continue to use them. The thing to keep in mind is that you get what you pay for. I'm sure they don't have the best price for every single thing they carry but you will get good service and know that you are dealing with a reputable company. CC...

    Ever have a credit card number stolen???

    Just a heads up, I just found $2000 in Amazon purchases on my CC over the past couple of days. I got the email from AHS but because I was going out of town had to keep the card open. After a week when I didn't see any weird charges I figured I was fine. CC company is taking care of it so no big...
