Most areas have local breweries now. In KC it is Boulevard Beer. Their Pale Ale is outstanding. Worth checking out if you are ever in this area. Someone mentioned PBR's. I've done a lot of those in my time.

We have several micro-breweries in Montana, in fact in most of the bigger towns. Last night I enjoying Moose Drool Brown Ale, from the Big Sky Brewing Co. in Missoula.

I have also done my share of PBR's as well!

JB, have you tried the one on the right?
It's got a little twang to it!
(BTW, great mule deer article)

Yeah, I have tried that one! In fact I've tried just about all the Montana beers I can find, except for the ones with fruit in 'em. (Glad you liked the article.)

You don't like the 'huckleberry porter'??????

(grin)


Yeah, the yuppies can have all of that stuff.

A buddy and I were in the Hell Creek bar in Jordan sometime in the late 1990's and asked what they had in bottles. It turned out to be the usual: Bud, Bud Light, Miller, Miller Lite, etc. My buddy said, "What, no raspberry hefeweizen?!"

The bartender looked him for a moment like he might kick him out, or at least kick his ass, then saw the look my my buddy's face and realized he was joking. But it was close!

TFF!

There's actually a bar here in Bozeman that doesn't serve Bud Light. [bleep] 'em!

Fruit in beer is like something besides coffee beans and water in coffee. A good beer needs nothing more than sufficient quantities of malt, hops, yeast, and water. If I want corn, I'll swill American whiskey. If I want rice, might as well gargle something brewed/vinted in Japan.

Beyond the hoppy pales ales, things are generally downhill AFAIC. YMMV. And beware goofy beer "handles".

Is tomato juice in the morning considered a fruit?

On tap!

The bottled AA loses sumthin' in the translation - I'd rather drink Killian Red or most any of Weinhard's product in that case. Dos Equis on tap is good!

Only if it's the chaser.

True, I haven't worked up to trying the "Moose Drool" brand beer yet, but I will (I'm into anything moosey!).

Just another reason to hold you in high esteem.

I don't even put lemon in mexican beer, nor hefeweizen.

+1 on the Boulevard Pale Ale! Their hefeweizen is outstanding as well.


Have you ever been to the Little Apple Brewery up in Manhattan? They made good beer when I had to live there.

My favorite beer with food is IPA at the Mooses Tooth. When beer is the main course, I prefer darker brews, with Guiness Stout, being numero uno....it is food!
Just had some Scape Goat Pale Ale, in Montana, that was pretty damn good. Ultimately, the best beer, is the one in your hand!

You still alive?

Yep, how the heck you been? I was getting a bit burned out on the whole computer thing, and been away from the 'fire a bit. Just got back from ND an MT. Had a blast bird hunting, and visiting friends. Heading back to the north end of the pipeline to freeze my a$$ off, for a bit!

Jeff

Been good, done a little hunting. No trip to PA this year?

Glad to hear all is well. No PA trip this fall. Will probably try for spring gobbler though. You going to be making any AK visits?

It's been awhile but there is something special about Ballentine Ale and Quail!
