New Belgium Bottles

[ScubaSteve]

Okay...I'm drunk right now/////but arent new belgiuns bottles cool? They have that cool ribbon imprinted in the glass......(it's like sex panther.....it's got real bits of panther....so you know it's good.... ) God bless God and all the time he spent in the lab thinkin up yeats......or...if it's a total evolution thing......my props go to the yeast for comin up with an awesome game plan......

They stole the design from a Belgian brewery...I can't recall which one, but last time I was home in NYC, I had a belgian beer and the bottle had that same ribbon around it.

Hmmm...if god is omniscient and infallible, one would think he wouldn't have to putz around a lab trying to figure out how to make yeast...he'd just wave his hand and make it. Right?

I've never seen New Belgium's bottles. In fact, I've never had their beer...and I work at one of the top 70 beer retailers in the country. We just can't get it out here.

At least you can get Stone. Presently we can't get New Belgium or Stone products on VT.

I swear.... I *know* I've seen Stone in Bennington. I've got to get back up to the old Smoker's Den and get some more McNeill's Ruby Ale before we see Ray at YI, but I'll eat my shoe if they don't stock Stone Smoked Porter up there as well...

Stone will finally be available in Vermont on Wednesday October 3rd. In celebration of this momentous occasion The Rattlesnake Cafe (230 North st Bennington, registration pending) will be hosting an all Stone event. We will have every Stone beer available in Vermont on tap and in bottles. We have prepared a special menu to accompany the beer selections and we will have Stone reps Michael Saklad and Martin Saylor in house to get to know the people of Vermont. Doors open at 4:30 (kegs tapped at 5pm) The event runs 6pm thru 8pm. Food served until 9pm last call at 11pm. We are very small intimate place and we've already had calls requesting reservations. As always we seat first come first serve, no exceptions. So get here early, stay late and get someone to cover you at work the next day!

That sucks! You're missing out man. I'm in the same boat. I love Dogfish Head, but I cannot get it anywhere out here in Las Vegas. Vegas really doesn't have the craft brew or import selection that you would think it would have.
