Title: Alaskan Amber now available in TX
Post by: Dichotomy on June 06, 2012, 07:30:58 PM
Last week one of my 'kids' dropped by with a six of Alaskan Amber he picked up at 7-11 (my favorite beer in the history of ever) and it turns out they have made a deal with Ben E Keith and are now available in TX.  Color me happy.  If you like beer try it out.  It's not a swilling beer it's more of a sipping beer.

I hear they are gonna start selling Texas Pride in Alaska $1.20 a six pack
Hmm, bet there aren't any Piggly Wigglys in Alaska though.

Thats the one with the Killer Whale on the front label? If so, drink it. I was in the Anchorage airport a few years ago waiting on my buddies flight to arrrive and I spent some quality time at the airport bar hammering those down. About 2 hours later they arrived and I was about 8 beers deep already. Good stuff!   :aok

Texas pride comes in a 40 ounce bottle but only has 20 ounces of liquid.

No it's the one with the fishing boat on front (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KYNi55Be7T8/Swod9Mh0CFI/AAAAAAAAA2I/oN9_yGPzM-Y/s1600/IMG_2733.JPG) but they have other products that are probably pretty good

Well if they're in 7-11s in Texas, might as well checkout one of the 5 down my street, see if they got it.

Ah, I checked out the website. It was the summer ale I was drinking. Great stuff either way!

Texas Pride, or Piggly Wiggly? Out of business?
When I was at Ft. Hood (Killeen- 1985-86), there was a Piggly Wiggly
store where we shopped sometimes.
Texas Pride was almost as bad as Budweiser :aok

The Piggly Wigglys are gone. No clue about the beer, I don't recall seeing it anywhere but I really haven't looked for it.

We have piggly wigglys around here. Not many a couple are obviously newish.
