Truck loaded with 44,000 pounds of Coors tips over on Colo. interstate.

I know it's Coors, but it's still beer. We should still be a little sad.

Thousands of hipsters in the Denver area will be crying in their soy lattes this morning.

You'd be surprised how often this happens. Same spot, several times a year. This one is the third or fourth of 2013.

This is Colorado, we have one of the highest concentrations of micro-breweries anywhere. Hipsters here don't drink Coors. And def not the Natural Ice and Keystone the news said this truck was loaded with.

I know. I enjoy Avery's fine products from time to time. Your state and mine (PA) are in the top 5 craft beer producers in terms of $$ for 2012. Oddly TX beat us both.

Yeah but compare our population to the other 4 top 5 and it becomes apparent we love our beer here. Probably one of the few places where you can run a competitive 5k then walk straight to a beer garden tent directly after.

Why settle for a tent? There's an RV park within a two minute walk of the crash spot.

Hey CQ, have you ever hashed ? I did it a few times, a few years back, and it was awesome

(also I'm working on a plan to open my own brewery in two years)

I have not hashed, frankly beer was not what came to mind when I read 'hashed'. Sounds like fun though. Where abouts to you plan on opening a brewery? I love trying new brews.

I'm running electrical to an outbuilding on my property (a kid's playhouse) in the spring to get my operation set back up and work on new recipes. I have a friend with restaurant management experience lined up to run the food operation. I'm about 20% done with my business plan

I'm planning on having my business plan ready by Q4 2014. I'm already researching financial backers and hope to present furiously Q1 2015, and hopefully have brews good enough to enter the GABF in 2015

This is, of course, all dependent on things going to plan. Right now, they're not exactly doing so. My job is not providing enough funds to get things going (we're bleeding so bad, we got hit with NSF this week. NOT HAPPY. Looking for new employment ASAP)

I have navef really liked their boston lager all that much. Better than many of the regularly found offerings, but never a beer I will crave. Now some of their specials, on the other hand... That would make me sob like a little schoolgirl with a dead hamster.
