Help me with my family!!!
General Beer Discussion by PHILBERTGODPHRY
My father, mother, aunts, uncles, cousins, EVERYONE in my family drinks Bud Light. I won't lie to you, I used to do the same. I think I made my transition to "good" beer by way of Samuel Adams Octoberfest but I don't think that would work for them. I guess what I'm asking is A. How do wean my family off of swill or B. What beer/beers influenced you to drink better beer?

my older brother, who still drinks swill, LOVED Stone Smoked Porter. Loved it. I was kinda surprised. Now I'll use any occasion to get one for him so he quits with the swill, but he's too cheap to actually buy good beer himself.

...and here I thought New Glarus was all about the Jack's Links jerky.

John, are the four fruit beers listed as year round beers on their site really year round (as in always available)? That's just ridiculous to me. In the very best of ways. Trying to get up there sooner than later.

I'm happy anytime a New Glarus thread is revived or when one of their elixirs is in my glass. PfoxyJohn, see you next weekend. [8D][^]
Yes, yes they are. The only glitch has been due to weather-related poor fruit harvest. But even when that interrupted the supply of Belgian Red a couple years ago, it resulted in the release of Serendipity. A rather disconcerting update. Today I thought I'd check out availability of said beers to replenish the cellar, only to find store shelves bare of Belgian Red and Raspberry Tart. Not sure what's going on.

Can I just email you Abby and I's savings account info and wait with baited breath by the mailbox?
