TnDC Buyer Tips
This is the time of the year when true beer lovers scour the land looking for the latest winter/seasonal brew. But sometimes just finding some of the old reliables at a foodstamp prices is enough the make you drool. So last Friday I shot over to Brandon's Package Store in Peachtree City, GA and boot-legged back a few cases of the good stuff including: Shipyard Pumpkin Head, Flying Dog's Dogtoberfest, Horn Dog BarleyWine, Gonzo Imperial Porter and Heller Hound, as well as a case of SweetWater's Festival Ale in the sixers and 4 1-liter pop-tops. But the best find so far would be the Bruno's right off exit 255 I-65 with their dedicated end cap to SweetWater's Pale Ale, IPA and Blue at $6.99/sixer and (drum roll)...Mike's Handy Food Mart Gardendale, AL with more cheap imports than you can shake a stick at. SweetWater, Hoegaarden (pronounced who-gar-den) for $7.99/sixer!!, and even Tucher in the singles, Pete's Rally Cap Ale $4.99, Sam Adams Octoberfest $10.99/12 pack!! Drink up.
