Made up for the lacklustre performance by the team I hope!
Don't remember much of the game! But yes! Wish I had time to go to Consumers or Premier. This was all bought at Toms Grocery Store or something.. Then the BCS a trade.

We should have taken a picture of your beer and my beer together! Still very impressive though

Nice! Where did you managed to find all that?
I grabbed a small haul today. Some Trappist goodies!

All of the Kuhnhenn beer is from Kuhnhenn (Winter Solstice Party).
The Black Note is straight from Bells (unannounced sale - they put the bottles out right as we got to Detroit/Kuhnhenn, so we booked it to K'Zoo to get some)
The Bourbon County Coffee, Whose Your Daddy and Bourbon Plead the 5th is from a friend in Chicago who met us in Detroit.
The Big John was from me. I came across some at Premier Gourmet in Buffalo on Thursday (just by a stroke of good luck/timing)
The Abrasive is from me, from a trade I did with a guy in WI.
The Narwhal is from a bottle shop in Port Huron.

That's great, sounds like a fun trip.

How are the beer stores in the Detroit area? I'd like to try adventuring out there.

I did the same thing today and here is what I got:
Firestone Walker Union Jack
Firestone Walker Wookey Jack
Anderson Valley Oatmeal Stout
Stoudts Oktoberfest
DFH 90 Minute IPA
DFH India Brown Ale
Troegs Dead Reckoning Porter *
Full Sail Session Black Lager
Victory Hop Devil *
Cooperstown Benchwarmer Porter *
Heavy Seas Winterstorm ESB
Blue Point White IPA
The ones with the stars I have had before. The dead reckoniong porter was excellent last time I went. Tonight after my daughter went to sleep I tried the Union Jack. Not anything close to what I was expecting, but it was excellent none the less. And it was bottled back in June, so I imagine when it is fresh it tastes awesome.
Picked up all of these in Potsdam NY (a little more than an hour from Ottawa).

Potsdam IGA? Man, I miss that place - last time I was there they had DFH 120 in the keg and were filling 14 oz fliptop bottles!
Also, the beer guy there was interested in some mad toms and crazy canucks that I had in the car, and we did a little trade. Nice little store when you're in that part of NY.

Potsdam IGA plus this other little place near the walgreens called CJ's. Most of the stuff I picked up was at the IGA though. And I have met the manager before, he is a super nice guy. Last year he held a bottle of the Dogfish Head Pearl Jam beer for me because I asked about it on Facebook. It is also just a really nice little grocery store. Their IGA brand soft chocolate chip cookies are awesome.
