Ames Lager

[1100011CS]

Went to Hy-Vee in Marshalltown last night to load up before the weekend and it was the only one that was sold out. Plenty of the other 3 and Swam but no Ames Lager left

Finally found some at the local Hy Vee wine and spirits. Nothing special but for a good cause. We Will buy again someday.

It's definitely growing on me. I guess I've drank Lite beer too long.

how dare you get my hopes up for dist outside of iowa. (i know, i know still having issues with distribution in Iowa) I will have to buy a year's supply while I'm back.

Anyone else see an issue with the cans? I had some that I put in the refrigerator and as I was putting them I I noticed the cans had bees oozing around the top (where the top connects to the van). I’ve never experienced that before.

That's a badass can

Is there any at the grocery stores in Ames? Our son in S. Carolina wants us to bring some down when we visit next week.

No but that certainly sounds problematic.

Side note: Anyone know of locations in eastern IA (think further east than even Cedar Rapids) selling the Smoked Red Trice beer or the Hazy IPA Backpocket?

I picked up the Trice beer at the Grinnell Hy Vee. Not Eastern IA but you might check your local Hy Vee. I really like the Trice Red Corn beer. Has some hops but less than an IPA.

The beer will be available for sale at State Farm Center, Memorial Stadium and all Illinois athletic facilities that sell alcohol.

must be nice

Echoing statements that I think its a solid beer. It's not trying to be a craft beer, its not an IPA, its nothing fancy. It's something you can drink easily and its better tasting than a cheap beer. After you have a can you're like "yeah, I'd have another". It's a crapshoot when you do something like this that if it tastes really weird people will stay away from it. This is the opposite of that. I would actually describe it as "generic" but in a good way.

I think it is very similar to PBR in the one can I drank.

I think it’s a real problem is you have bees coming out of the cans.

I agree with the PBR comp. I like PBR, so it's not a problem.

Any availability in NE Iowa (Waterloo, CF, Waverly)? Sorry, did not go back through the entire thread.

Definitely similar. But I think it’s a bit better.
