Get your hands on some stuff from Bell's and Founders and I will pick it up on my way to CO later this summer!
Nothing like a really good Michigan Micro.
Not sure if Bells even qualifies anymore with the current # of barrels being produced.
2 <3 and Centennial are among my favorites.

No, just not paying attention to the label. It was very good though, Should have remembered to try and see if I can get it over here
Do any of you folks home brew? That's something I'd like to get into, if it's not too hard to get started.
yes, I do, it's not that hard really as long as you keep everything absolutely clean. You can go as far as you like with beer in terms of working from canned malt extract all the way up to doing the full mash process yourself if you like.
That might be a deal-buster, unless I can get my wife involved. Thanks for the feedback.
If you're doing wine, you can start with as little as two demijohns, a bug plastic bucket with a lid, some syphon tubing and an airlock. A long handled plastic spoon, funnel, a muslin bag are useful but not essential.
It doesn't take up a lot of space and I store most of the gear in my 5-gallon (imperial) bucket when not in use.
For beer, you can get away with just 5 gallon bucket, long handled spoon and syphon tubing plus bottles for storage. Either way you'll also need some steriliser.

Problem is Dave we are overflowing as it is, otherwise trust me, I would be making lot's of beer! Lol! My wife would like to make wine but again same problem. So we just drink my sister in laws home brews (wine and beer) instead. Although I don't touch her wine anymore... She had tried fortifying it with Everclear once, yowsa...
