By the way, I'd truly love the brown water and beer geeks

in the Lunge to be able to travel to Iowa City sometime in the future, if only to see John's Grocery. They have a website:
https://www.johnsgrocery.com/
Staffed by a collection of hipsters, hippies, and old farts. Great, great place to just stroll around in, plus lax liquor laws means that they have everything from beer to liquor there.

I'd be shocked if they have it, but Balcone's Baby Blue if

they do. As far as I can tell, Texas is the only place that actually has it, even though their website shows limited distribution to other states. I can't imagine that anyone who appreciates a great whiskey couldn't love it.

I can't even bring myself to put an ice cube or splash of water in it. I think it's that good.

I'd bring it home and hold on to it, the next time I drive

out there. Unless there's a good way to ship beer. I'd be too worried about all the shaking it would endure in the regular handling process.
But, sure.

Shipping beer is pretty #### easy

Especially with cans. I use FedEx and prep the box at home and print out the label. I usually line the box with a garbage bag in case of breakage, and individually wrap each can/bottle in bubble wrap. Then secure the rest of the box so it limits shaking and such. Drop off at a FedEx location and then watch it go on its way.

Sounds a lot like Sam's Quik Shop in Durham

Tons and tons of beer and usually some hot chicks walking around. Then you have the Hipster crowd as well. Best place to hang on a Saturday afternoon in the Spring.
