Narragansett [/ QUOTE ] Are they still in business? I remember this beer from 30 years ago and although I've never tasted urine before, I'm pretty sure it tastes just like this beer. |

Re: Regional Beers and Local Favorites
I bought Dead Guy Ale at Target or something, not that obscure.
I have to go to a local alcohol store to get the other Rogue stuff. |

Re: Regional Beers and Local Favorites
They reopened the Narragansett brewery a few years back. Last time I was in Mass. I couldnt find it though. I really liked it. I dont know if it tastes like piss but i guess anything is possible.

[ QUOTE ] Speaking of "super regionals," Lienenkugel's anyone? Seems like a couple of their beers (Sunset Wheat, Summer Shandy, Honeyweiss) have a really wide distribution. They get all the way south to Texas, as well as many of their other beers. How far East/West does it go. I chuckled when I saw a 6 pack of Liene's Original at Whole Foods for 7 or 8 bucks. Anyways, I had their Red when I was back home, and it fell short of what I remembered. [/ QUOTE ] I haven't been able to find it out here in DC yet, it is one of the things I miss about MN, especially the Sunset Wheat. it quickly became one of my favorites. [/ QUOTE ] I've seen this brew everywhere. Carpool has it out in Arlington, as does the big hunt at Dupont... |

Thats awesome, I guess I'll have to pay better attention. Do you know any place by Capitol Hill or Eastern Market? |

Its actually the only Rogue beer available in stores in 6 packs. Everything else is 22oz bottles. Red Hook is back East because (I think) Budweiser distributes for them. |

Yuengling (I love it so) is a little different, no? You can find it up and down the east coast now, at least from Philly to Tampa. Far more available than the Abitas and Goose Islands (good choices). A good term for Yuengling might be a "super regional" beer. [/ QUOTE ] This is just "super regional" over maybe the last 5 years. When I was at Pitt in 2001, it seemed like it was just starting to hit the local bars. I believe that's around the time when they started buying up a few brewerys in the East to up their production. It sucks you can't get it out in Cali [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Saltine, The Stone Brewery is in Escondido. The restaurant is darn good too. I need to go back sometime soon. |
