So a trip to Bev-Mo on monday was less than "all that". Overpriced beers. IMHO
I took a trip to Whole Foods on the way home today- got another 4 pack of Oskar Blues Ten Fidy and it was only $7.99!!! On the other hand, Left Hand mixed 12 pack was $20.99 WTF! Ska's mixed 12 was $17.99 What is this world coming to!?!?
I had to drown my sorrows at the Whole Foods Tapas bar with a glass of Old World Brewing's Irish Red. I thought that I had had it before, but now that I tried it again- No Way! I would have remembered it for SURE- It was quite sour!
Heather the beer chick also suggested that I try Left Hand's smoked beer- she says it's more of a Barbeque smoke flavor than a Grilled smoke flavor. I almost threw her down behind the bar right then and there, but I practiced a LOT of self control.
I also tasted the Breckenridge Octoberfest. It was really tasty, light as (I am learning) an Octoberfest should be. I mean, if you are drinking from 9 AM till well after sunset, you don't want a big heavy beer, right?
Thank you Whole Foods for taking my money, and thank you Heather for an enlightening experience!
(there is a reason my chef friend calls it "Whole Paycheck"...)
