[at-l] Beer on the Trail

[lparker at cacaphony.net (L. Clayton Parker)]

Ahh, but for the REAL ounce weinies among us, the pouch only weighs one
tenth of an ounce empty, that is only six tenths for a six pack...<G>.

As for the original question, no, to the best of my knowledge Great Bear
Brewing is still the only beer brewer using them. Belmont Station
(http://horsebrass.com/belmont_station/bst_map.html) will ship Great Bear
products to you via ground freight (not UPS).

Once I knew where I was going, but now I have  forgotten.  Sometimes my mind
wanders.  Sometimes it goes alone, and other times it takes me along...this
isn't one of those times...
