Good on you, Pete! I was thinking the same thing.

I'm also a little concerned that the Politics thread is getting more views/posts than this one. Priorities, people!!

I'm sure the Coloradans will be along to answer your question correctly.

I've visited the Springs a couple times, although I've not beered there enough to be a local expert. However, I would not miss Phantom Canyon Brewing. Great place, GREAT beers.

I understand "good" watering hole. I'm just having trouble with the concept of a "bad" watering hole. Doesn't compute. The whole thing gets to that old joke that when you are reviewing the female clientele, the only difference between a 4 and a 10 is eleven beers.

quit lying ray!! you would take a 4 home after a shot of tequila and a rub on the thigh.. oh, wait, that was me.

here is a good question. being that the majority of us are intelligent, common sense kind of people.. why do we continue to drink heavily, knowing that it will just set us up to make some real bad decisions sometimes?

i have always wondered that about myself.

bigjohn, I continue to drink heavily because I can't find anything that gets close to making me feel as lousy as a premium hangover. I once attempted "death by tequilla". That was, perhaps, the best hangover I ever had. Even now, just typing the words cuases my eyelids to hurt.

Well I guess it's back to the beer we go. I have to add another Belgian to my list. Come to think of it, I can't say that I've ever had a bad Belgian beer. Is there actually such a thing? Anyway, I had a Duvel last night. The bottle opened with a nice "psssss" Poured the glass and for a second there I thought it was Champagne. Nice golden color, BIG head on top, and LOTS of carbon. Taste was rather delicate and with all the carbon it tickled my tongue at first. The finish was a full of that wheaty taste and lingered for several minutes. Definately one worth picking up again.

Duvel is nice. Subtle, clean, strong.

Tom got me on a Belgian kick earlier this summer. By far the most impressive of the bunch was Karmeliet Tripel. Softer, yeastier, WAY fruitier than Duvel. In fact it was the fruitiest tasting beer I ever had that didn't actually claim to have fruit in it. Strong kiwi and pear finish, bready yeast flavors, great head retention and crystal clear. Expensive, but great.

Thanks again for the heads up on that one, Tom.
