Support Your Local Brewery
The bumper sticker is from Bell's Brewery in Kalamazoo, near my hometown. If I could buy it out here, I would. It's always a nice treat to drink it when I go back home. My favorite local brews in Arizona are from Four Peaks Brewing Company out of Tempe. I just replaced the kegs at home last Friday. An empty 8th Street Pale and Hefeweizen were swapped out for their Sunbru Kölsch (style) and Hopknot IPA. I think the Sunbru is a great summertime ale and Hopknot was started from a bet and has turned out to be one of their best sellers. It's a great story. My fridge is a bit small so I fill it with two torpedoes instead of one half barrel. A half barrel will fit but it required a hacksaw modification to the door. Plus, having two different styles on hand at once is always nice. If one runs out, there is a backup and more time to plan your next beer run. There is less waste without the bottles and cans and with better quality brews, you get more for your money.
