Lifetime

Was in SF just before the pandemic and a rep bought me a 4 pack

I was only in town a couple days and we actually were drinking it at the bar that night. Took back to my room and I had a brain fart and packed the 2 I had left in my carry on when I was leaving. Obviously got flagged by TSA and I just looked at the agent and said please do not let those go to waste! His reply, "They are coming home with me."

turkeywinghokie • 02/23/23 03:03 PM ET
Admittedly I think your line about what were they thinking is true…
Brewing_Hokie • 02/23/23 06:06 PM ET
Great list. I'll add Triple Crossing's Falcon Smash

turkeywinghokie • 02/23/23 03:09 PM ET
I like an occasional Red Stripe**
HokieR • 02/23/23 02:27 PM ET
Not many places sell them.

Ditto and used to drink it at the Cellar and Ton 80 (when I wasn't banned)**
AirborneHokie96 • 02/23/23 02:06 PM ET
Who did you throw a dart at to get banned?**
BackInTheBurg • 02/23/23 02:23 PM ET
I didn't know it was possible to get banned from Ton 80
HokieR • 02/23/23 02:17 PM ET
My roommates and I were very experts at darts

I challenge anyone to find a beer scene better than San Diego County. **
RoswellGAHokie • 02/23/23 03:49 PM ET
We only had 3 or 4 days there and had the then 5-6 year old with us.
reestuart • 02/23/23 03:57 PM ET
Solid go-to beers right there, IMO. Not necessarily the best I've had
reestuart • 02/23/23 01:50 PM ET
Good point about what's available.
HokieR • 02/23/23 01:59 PM ET
Yep. I find myself buying the same stuff over and over at home.
reestuart • 02/23/23 02:49 PM ET
Sierra Nevada is always solid, Guinness on tap is da bomb**
