Good news and Bad news

So they other day I am in the store buying a friend a 6 pack of some gay ass wheat beer, call me a nice guy but I haven't felt that gay in a while.  Well when the guy that was working at the store saw my ID he said words that I have been waiting to hear since I moved to this shit hole they call Florida.  He said "  Man I am so glad that they finally started getting Sweetwater in Florida."  Well I freaked and I said WHAT!, WHERE? and such....and his reply was simply "About 2 hours a way we are still trying to figure out how to get it shipped down here."  My first thought other than how excited I would be if I were to drink a Sweetwater IPA in this shit hole they call Florida and my second was how hard can it be to figure out how to ship something just an hour or so south?  Needless to say I was liking this guy because he was sharing the good news with me until he said: "  420 is the best beer ever."  I laughed at him and told him Good Day, dumb ass.

So the good news is that maybe Sweetwater will make my stay down here a lot nicer especially when it gets hot....and the bad news is that this shit hole they call Florida can't figure out how to put cases of "amazingness" in a box and ship it to a store.

"good day, dumb ass" Classic son. I'm gonna check this out for you because i don't know if this joker knows what he's talking about. If sweetwater is gonna distribute to florida it'll 100% surely be jacksonville, Orlando, Miami first and the outter lying areas will have it trickle in. The other problem with this is that IPA is my only trade bait for two hearted so i have mixed emotions. By the way the gayest wheat beer ever has got to be the mix 12 pack of Leininkugel beers. Honey Wheay, lemonade Wheat, Berry Wheat and Sunset (F'n fruity pebbles, big league chew) Wheat.

on another IPA note, weez and I had a taste of a double IPA by Sweetwater last night. It was hoppier but it lacked the mouth feel and the "punch" of a better double IPA's that we have had. I appreciate them trying anyway.
