I have a kegerator in my shed, I used to do a barrel every two/three weeks, with a little help of course. It got to the point for me where I was drinking 5-8 pints a day, tough to keep the little woman happy when your focused on that next pint. needless to say I only buy kegs now for special occasions etc... kindof a waste I know. My buddy has one also and he only buys shitty beer to keep himself in check. for me... its all or nothing. sammy is always an excellent choice for the weekend enthusiast.

Uhhhhhhhhh... I wish I could drink a beer right now. It's been ~2 months (or more) since the crash. The pain meds would make it a REALLY bad idea to drink.
On a side note I just don't get recreational use of pharmaceuticals. This shit takes the pain away but it also:
1) makes me feel foggy
2) constipates you
3) upsets the stomach
I can't wait to get off this crap.

Arrogant Bastard, made by the good ole boys at Stone Brewery in Escondido, CA. Only 15 miles from my house. They don't make any pissy lager and their lightest stuff is Pale Ale. The food is hoity and expensive but the beers are reasonably priced. Definitely worth a road trip and the bring shekels for the gift shop!

You guys are so lucky to have such an active craft brew scene. Here in Australia it is starting to take off, but with such great distances and so few people, it's hard to maintain. There are some very nice beers around, but unfortunately they are not always available.
Some bottle shops over here are starting to stock some American craft beers, but I don't think we will ever see beers like the arrogant bastard.
wishing I was there -

ps - I do all grain home brew. I try to emulate some of these great beers and they do taste great, but not having tried the original, I'm still guessing.

Arrogant... well... you know 
First time I heard of Arrogant Bastard was at holiday party about five years ago, at which a business associate of mine presented a bottle of AB to another associate - to let the guy know what his opinion was. :rocket: .
I thought the label was cool, and found it at a local bottle shop (in the SF bay area). Expensive, yes... but a very satisfying brew. Excellent post!

The folks that make Arrogant Bastard also make Ruination IPA. A seriously hoppy IPA. Their Pale Ale is one of my favorites of all time. If you are ever in Escondido stop by. Expensive food but a truly massive beer list. And an incredible atmosphere. They spared no expense in building their place with rock and stone everywhere. And you can see into the brewery through the huge glass wall. I am truly blessed to have Arrogant Bastard on tap at a lot of my local bars.:beer: Say what you want about Southern California but we have BEER!
