Haul for 4/20

Ah yes, 4/20.  For some people (mary jane aficionados), this date is near and dear to their hearts.  I'm not one of those people, so 4/20 is just any other day.  Yeah, I recognize and remember that it's also Hitler's birthday, and Columbine happened on this particular day, but you could probably and find a relevant story for any day of the year.  Anyway, I decided to drop by the Beer Dispensary in Apex to reload on some 12 oz bottles (I actually started to run under 30 there bottles there for a bit) and get a few more bombers to hold onto.  So here's what I was able to get..!

• Highland Little Hump Spring Ale - It's Highland Brewing's next seasonal, so I decided to pick it up. Price paid - $1.90
• Bell's Oberon Ale - I was interested in picking this up last year when I first started to get into beer, but didn't do it.  This time, it was in my sights and I was ready to capitalize.  Price paid - $2.00
• Natty Greene's Elm Street IPA - I can usually tell what are the normal beers for Natty Greene's and which ones are the seasonals.  Either this is a new year-round release or it's a seasonal, judging by the orange colored six pack case it came in.  Haven't had it before, so I had to try it. Price paid - $1.80
• Sweetwater Road Trip - I was talking to someone the other day who raved about this beer, so I had to pick it up and see if he knew his stuff or if he was full of crap.  Price paid - $1.80
• Great Lakes Rye of the Tiger IPA - Another seasonal from the folks in Ohio, I really liked the Conway Ale, so I'm hoping for more goodness out of this IPA. Price paid - $1.90
• Bison Honey Basil Ale - I'm actually pretty sure I've had this before at the Busy Bee Cafe in Raleigh, but that was before I started this blog.  I decided to pick it up so I could put it to the test, especially now that my beer palate has changed significantly.  Price paid - $2.40
• Sweetwater 16 Anniversary - I believe this one is a wheat wine ale that's packing 11% ABV.  I'm crossing my fingers, hoping for good things out of this one. Price paid - $8.00
• Highland Imperial Kashmir IPA - It's like Highland's Kashmir IPA, except they use a ton more malts and hops to create the beer.  The description on the side of the bottle got my attention and made me want to pick it up. Price paid - $8.50
• Mother Earth Windowpane Series: Raspberries - I have peaches, was too late in the game to get blackberries, and never saw fig come along.  Of all the beers, why is fig the hardest to find?  Who would want fig beer anyway?  Not that it's bad, but you'd think that purely on the fact that it's made with figs that people would opt for the peach or the raspberry.  Anyway, I wanted to get the last 3, I only have 2 of the last 3, and I'll wander around some of the other beer stores next week to see if I can find the last one and hold onto it for a while.  I did pay a premium for this one, so I hope it's worth it.  2 out of 3 aint bad, right?  Price paid: $16.50

This will hold me until the end of the month.  Next haul should be in a couple of weeks.
