Wagon Fest beer trade

I believe this was talked about last year. I know Paul and Pat want some of the Jimmy Buffet beer (Land Shark) so I'm starting a thread to see who wants to trade regional beers at the 'fest

If you have a good regional brew and would like to try something from some other part of the country then let's get this rolling
In my area we have a lot of Caribbean beers that might not be available in some places. No real Florida microbrews aside from the mentioned Land Shark and that's brewed closer to Krzidimond than me (Jax, FL).

So post requests for beers wanted and beers offered for trade. I'm sure there will be a separate thread for parts as well.

don't trade any beer for anything kevin (wagon collector) has,. he brought some foul tasting iron stuff one time,. tasted like it came of a foundry all right,..

Nick

We had talked about it last year, but it never got off the ground.

I'm in on it for this year. I already owe Phantom 309 (Nick) some Coronas and will add some local stuff to my purchase.

Some general instructions should be:

1) posting an official " 2K10 Wagonfest Beer Swap " sign,

2) "Take one , Leave one behind"

3) NOT EMPTY!


Anyone with artistic talent is welcome to create and post up a sign or link to that sign that those interested in taking part can print out. Then stick it on their donor case at WF2K10.

I'm in Jax, but not 21 yet. lol

Boo

Keep driving after Wagonfest. 19 in Ontario, and 18 in Quebec. Montreal has some very entertaining places for a guy your age.

is this proper advice comming from a man who is in charge of shaping the minds of our national capital's children?

Once they graduate, they are on their own. Besides, culture is an important part of everyone's upbringing

Meh, I'm not too fond of alcohol honestly. lol

And Jay gives the best advice.

picked up a case of LoneStar beer here in Austin, TX. It'll have almost 3000 miles on it before it gets to WF. It'll make the 1300 mile drive back to my house then the over 1500 mile trek to Waterloo.....

Get 2 cases; it's 1000 miles from here to WF

Too damn funny!

Me either. It's made me vomit on several occasions - violently.

I remember one time after I'd had alcohol, my only job the entire next day was to not poop my pants in the car - and I almost got fired.

I think I might be allergic.

I thought you did get fired from nursing school or something?

..... it wasn't from pooping my pants in the car though.

OK boys time to declare what you are bringing for the WF10 Beer Swap

from High Falls Brewing Rochester NY

J.W. Dundee's Honey Brown.
J.W. Dundee's Irish Lager

I'll be bringing some Paper City blueberry, and possibly a couple others

http://www.papercity.com/

I'll bring some offerings from Great Lakes Brewing Co:

- Lake Erie Monster (An Imperial IPA, or IIPA as it were). <--- Awesome brew!
- Burning River Pale Ale

I'm sure I'll grab some others, maybe some seasonals.

Does an insatiable thirst count?

Well I have a case of Lone Stars waiting in Austin to start the looong journey.

To amuse Pat and Paul, I'll be also be bring a case of Land Shark Lager (Jimmy Buffet's beer).

I'll tootle around the liquor store and see what other Caribbean brews I can find.

Kalik - Bahamas
Red Stripe - Jamaican for crappy beer
Presidente - Dominican
Tecate, Modello - Mexican

there's a few more around from Central America too.

All mentioned are fairly light as in the tropics one does not like a heavy brew.

pat and jay, i assume when you refer to the quebec beers you are also refering to unibroe!! yum yum yum!

i need to converse with scoob8000 on this one...im definately in but i can bring the same brew as him. its like 2 women showing up in the same dress!

I think you and Mike showed up in the same dress last time we were together. It was kind of embarrassing.

Anyone want me to grab any New England specific brews? I'm not much of a drinker, so I don't know what's good or not, but I'll be happy to pick stuff up if you guys give me a list.

And John, noises like that should NOT be able to come out of a human!

Anyone from Eastern NY bringing some "Saranac Trail Mix"?

all i ask is that no one bring Budweiser chelada.....nothing says delicious like horrid combo of clam juice, tomato juice and beer

Does it taste worst on the way down, or the way up?

Whoever came up with that needs to have their head examined.

on the way up....

surprisingly id rather drink a case of that, than eat a liver and onion dinner....yuuuuck!

i didn't even know you could juice a clam... someone had to be the first....that also means they needed enough of it to make a "clam juicer"!

I think I'll bring a case of something from Penn Brewery. Wish East End had bottles...

they do!!! just really big ones and they are really expensive!!!

Penn is awesome. I like their Schwartzbeer (sp? - the black lager stuff). Also they make a good Heffeweizen (sp? - yeah, I'm not good at spelling stuff).

can you repost the #? search function inop on my phone.

can we get a final head count on the beer trade please!!!

I'm in with a case of Lonestar cans, and a twelve each of a El Salvador beer and Nicaraguan beer. still gotta get the Land Shark for Pat -n- Paul

For the record, Landshark lager is sold at most of the larger Grocery stores locally in upstate New York, such as Wegmans and Tops.

Liquor laws here are that beer and wine coolers are sold in separate locations than are wines and harder spirits. So most 7/11& gas/mart variety stores sell beer as well.

Gas and Beer together... What a great country to live in! I LOVE AMERICA!

I'll pick up a case of Penn today to bring..

That confused me royally the first time I went to a packie in NY. I go to school in Troy and was stopping in to pick some stuff up for a party I was heading to. I walked into the store and it had no beer, but plenty of booze and wine. It was then the nice shop employee taught me how NYS sells beer and liquor

Crap Inwish I woulda read this before I just bought a case. siiiiigh well I guess I know what I'll be drinking on the way up, lol.

Honestly, it's overprice3d for the taste in my opinion

Killeen Texas...... Drive through package store. No sh!t.

they have drive through beer places in PA. just wheel in and they load the keg for ya

picked up a case of Church Brew works "pipe organ American pale ale"

They had drive thru packies in Illinois when I was there for school, too!

I didn't see that anyone requested any New England brews, so I don't know what to bring. I may grab something in the morning before I go... (They sell Beer & Wine at even Walmarts and gas stations 24/7 up here! )

SAM ADAMS!!!!!!!

Narragansett, ha ha ha! I'll drink one of those

I have a partial party pack of Sam Adams.

I also picked up a sixer of Tuckermans and a Sixer of Woodstock Inn Pig's ear Brown Ale.

When are we having Wagonfest somewhere closer to Texas?? I'll bring Shiner Bock if some of the PA folks bring me some Yuengling.

How about in Nashville or St Louis next year?? I might to get there over a long weekend!

-Mike

They sell Yuengling here too... Not sure how localized that is.
