Another stab at liquor law reform

[Hoss]

I just, I just...

Got nothin' on that.

Some brainiac's going to put some stupid assed rider on it and it'll get voted down. 

But it's nice to see it get that far so enthusiastically.

Add wine in Grocery stores and I will be satisfied.

What. No cold fifths of Jack Daniels?

I thought I had heard or read that the bill to increase the tax on 3.2 beer by 312% died, did it or not?

Slightly off topic but:

Black Dolphin is in stores now.

Dammit, not at Collin's yet.

BTW, they've moved into their new space.  I like it.

I got it at Crossing (101st & Memorial).  A bit of a drive for you, especially looking at traffic on 169 southbound.

I got my time in for the pay period so I left work early today.

Blasphemy! Blasphemy I Say!

Still have some of the first edition of this.  Drinks like friggin' chocolate milk.  One of the best barrel aged beers I've had.

Ranch Acres had it yesterday I believe.  Have not figured it was worth venturing to the liquor store in this weather, but it sure is a great day to brew a Deschutes Fresh Squeezed IPA clone and maybe an amber ale.

Yep, didn't see any at Collin's and by that time yesterday (about 3:30) it was getting bad on the roads and I had to drive from there to the Traffic Circle to get home.

I know some friends that have some; I'll get it eventually.

What I did get to try last week at McNellie's was Big Jamoke out of the cask.  Yum. Mee.

Nice seeing everyone last night at the meeting.  Conan (and your better half), CF, RM...good to see you all again.  RM looked more like about 2/3 of the last time I saw him.    No beard makes you look like you are in your 20s and keep up with the weight loss.

Very informative meeting.  I learned some things last night about the alcohol distribution system in this state that I didn't know.  I like learning new things and like the two speakers, I'm on board for 2 of the 3 new laws.

Noooooooo....not that!!   Maybe just a tiny little piece of ice to splash it over!  Anything more is sacrilege!!

One of the better forums I've attended.  TN always has really great programming and Carlos is a terrific emcee.

Best part last night was free Marshall's beer and free brats and kraut provided by Fassler Hall.
