Oh Woe Is Me.......

Just found out some bad news today. It is still hard to talk about it.

New Belgium Brewing Co. is no longer going to make Loft Beer.

They are making room for a few new brews and getting rid of one of their best ones in my opinion. Fat Tire still holds the #1 spot but Loft is right up there. I just bought one of the last cases in Arkansas and I plan to put it to good use this weekend.

So heres to you my friend... ...I will miss you!





I know... I have issues. Anyone that takes pictures of beer is not well.

I'm glad to see you have recognized what we have known for a long time now. You might need a 12 step program to deal with your problems, but we will be there for you when you get back man!

Now..... where did you leave that case of beer?

Hey! Back off man..... I don't need any help! Actually there isn't enough 12 Step programs in the world to help me now.

Beers chillin in the fridge. Come on over. Your more than welcome to help me put an end to an era.

Loft is a great beer and I hate to see it go. But I just had a
Fat Tire at lunch, and plan on drinking some Sunshine tonight
so I guess I'll survive. Hopfully you will too.....

We can't get New Belgum beer here in OK...

I enjoy Fat Tire very much, but never had any of their other brews... Unfortunately, because I'm sure they are excellent.

I have had a few Shiner Bocks today... May switch to Jack, I don't want my old buddy feeling neglected, as I haven't paid him a visit lately.

As long as Shiner Bock is still being made, I'm happy. The day it goes out of service is the day you see a grown man cry.

T7..... I suggest your ease your suffering by visiting Boscos (its by the river walk if you didn't already know). They offer containers to go for like $11 plus a $5 deposit or something like that.
