nice!
so, how many of those places did you walk in and ask to see the wine list?
Every one of them, save for Left Hand, where I promptly walked in and shouted "My People!" arms raised of course.
It is strangely not a requirement to be left handed to work there. Milk Stout was good though.

ive had some really nice beers, lately. its funny in my neck of the woods. first, you had to go up to northern virginia, normally to total wine to find the "good stuff." Then a single beer shoppeee opened locale, selling fine selections, then another one, then another . . . each always needing to sell other things to survive, such as wine, cheeses, meats, some grocery stuff, things, like, that and all gouging the fuck out of you on fine selections. But now, a store has opened that actually is renting two side by side spaces, to sell beer only. beer only. the name of it is amusing, too. they have reps from breweries come from all over, such as dfh, founders, flying dog, and others on weekends just to sample beers and non releases. Full kegs of hard to finds, growlers (best ive seen in terms of seals for the top) of over 15-20 beers, special release kegs and unreleased kegs on tap. total, fucking, beer, store. in my area. wow. and to rub hops in the competition's brain, they beat everyone's overinflated, we charge you that because you'll pay it, prices. big time price beating. the folks around here who love good beer are going ape shit.
jesus . . . Christ. so, anyway, i'll tell you about all the great beers i've had lately, later.

why is it, that people who refuse to drink s***** beer, and will only drink what they consider to be fine craft beer, will always drink Rolling Rock?

miller high life has 143 calories but yuengling only 128
I guess its hard to do "better" than 128
but yuengling tastes awful. You should just drink Guinness.
