I just enjoyed a Southern Tier 2XMAS Ale. I like just about any ST brew.

Pliney the Elder.

I'm a big hop-head myself. I can drink the dark brews this time of the year but every couple of days I "need" to have a nice hoppy IPA!

Can't do the darks after a Rhine River cruise way back when. Enough said.

Give me a Heffe with a lemon or orange slice anyday (depending). The brewery of the one you selected is nice & one of my favorites.

Happy Holidays Folks,

Bob

On call $ucks -- I do that every 3d week.

Our grocery & beer/wine stores carry it in this area. For the unique German brands, I usually scour the lot at the military class VI stores on base.

Happy Holidays Folks,

Bob

There are a few decent wine/beer stores in Jersey but I have a local store in my town called the Beer Store. All the unusual and hard to find beers and they will order you whatever they can get. Along with a wall of cold cases and another wall of room temps, they have 24 awesome taps in the back.

You need to make it your mission to scour the streets of Cleveland for each and every grocery store, int'l market, beer/wine/liquor store, mom & pop grocery, etc... You could also try bars and restaurants to see want they have on tap and ask around for suppliers.

We will need a full report on this most pressing matter!
