M – I would be HONORED to rally up a beer tasting party with you! I’ve got tons of great suggestions from Deron and my own taste travels!

Come one come all on T-Day morning :o)
Never heard of Frontier Beverage though Deron, but I will definitely be googling that. I do though need to hit up the Elmwood Beer Merchant as anytime I walk by I find myself standing in the window drooling. They seem to be closed anytime I want to go :( I think I’m going to plan a beer tasting party and my dear friend Hannah will have to help me come with up a list of *must have* beers. MMMmmmm….Just thinking about it is making me thirsty!
Cheers!

M – I’ve noticed that Oktoberfest/fall seasonals got pulled from the shelves much earlier this year than any other year. Sam Adams Oktoberfest was gone just days after Halloween, in favor of their Winter Lager. I’ve heard that it’s got something to do with the fact that the distributors give each outlet X amount of beer, and once it’s gone, it’s gone – onto the next seasonal. I’m sure if you hunted around a bit, you would still be able to find some. Might I suggest Frontier Beverage on Grant Street?

I love a good oktoberfest…but I haven’t been able to find any here in Buffalo. They started selling Winter Ale a month ago…. I must admit though…I’m definitely a wine gal on holidays though…not sure why…but my recycling bin is usually full of about 4-5 different empty bottles. Just did my shopping today for some…now I just need to keep my paws off of them until Thursday morning. Yes…i said Thursday morning…HA!
