I was going through the list of new releases for the week and came across a few beers that caught my fancy. Before I knew it, I was headed off to Tasty Beverage after work and seeing what I could find. I ended up finding the two beers that I wanted, then grabbed two more before getting home. Never was that good at keeping my purchases to a minimum. Anyway, here's the haul:
- Olde Hickory Irish Walker Barleywine - Like the imperial stout I bought a week before, it had the wax seal on the bottle top, so I figured this one might be special. I know, probably a horrible way to try and judge a beer, but it got my attention enough to give it a shot. Price paid: $7.99
- Olde Hickory Bee Student - This was one of the beers I was targeting. Looks to be a new release and it was cheap enough that I felt it worthy to give a shot. Gotta support my NC breweries! Price paid: $3.99
- Dogfish Head Positive Contact - I first saw this beer at Bottle Revolution and was enamored with the ingredients that was involved with the creation of this beer. I had too much already and didn't want to pick it up then. On my last visit to Bottle Revolution, I couldn't find it and was bummed that I missed out. Fortunately, I saw this here at Tasty Beverage and didn't hesitate to grab this time. Price paid: $12.99
- Thirsty Dog Barrel Aged Siberian Night - This was the other beer that I was on the prowl for. Wandered around the store for a bit, didn't see it. I was expecting the beer to be a 22oz bomber for all to see. While checking out, I noticed the beer was up front the whole time, in 12 oz bottles. Grabbed one to go and paid the steep price as well. It better be good. Price paid: $7.00
