No better feeling than flipping over what I thought was going to be a mystery surface can And seeing that big “A” staring back at me

Why drive 12 hour one way to dig Pre-Tax Tru Blu ales, Genny 12 Horse Longopeners, Gamecock Ales, Apollos, Neuweilers Bock, and Krueger’s Baldies when you can locally drive 10 hours round trip and dig Pfeiffer, Goebel, Drewrys and Strohs?

I'm happy for you guys. I would be thrilled to turn a can over and find that Tru Blu! Something tells me that's just the tip of the iceberg, at least I hope so.
