That stuff is win.
That is probably my all time favorite beer. It simply can't be found east of the Mississippi. For the longest time, you couldn't even get it outside of Denver.
I once, quite literally, ran through the Denver airport to the lounge on the third floor and paid a $5 cover just so I could get a pint of that.
I have not tasted it in years...

I have your basic tools-sockets, wrenches, C clamp, that you would need for brake jobs. Like I said, I know how to change the pads. Bleeding--I am familiar with the theory and have done it on other vehicles, just not the S.
Open bleeder screw, push brake down, hold, close screw, repeat.

I hate you. VERY, VERY much.

They must have seriously ramped up production in the last couple of years. 
I have a good friend that is as nearly devastated by its unavailability as I am. She lived in Denver for a while and grew very fond of it. Was crushed when she moved back to DC and found that it couldn't be had.
The brewery is VERY small. Their website suggests only 300 employees. I visited it on a Spring Break trip in 1998... The airport run was in 04 or 05, IIRC... I gave up looking for it a long time ago.

Morning. Off to Lowe's soon. Got most of the blocking done yesterday as well as putting end boards on. Sunday I had to buy some new tools- drill crapped out. That and I realized that the main beam is probably not to code.
Also, I have to plan out the railing posts.

Here is their "territory". Maybe Alex can bring some the next time he comes up.
