If you ever get off your ass and fly somewhere good instead of one flat
land airport after another you can fly to this place. He doesn't update his website hardly ever but his beer can be found around here plus he's an airplane nut. http://www.langcreekbrewery.com/ Look on his pictures page for views of his strip. Jay Honeck wrote: Okay, since no one seems to be flying much, we might as well talk about something truly important...like beer. Mary just picked up a 6-pack of "Major Tom's Pomegranate Wheat" ale from the store. Why? Well, because it has a biplane on the container, of course! (Gotta love her taste in beer... ;-) It appears to be a Stearman, but the cockpit has a turtle-deck, so that's not quite right... But I digress. As I'm sitting her supping it (and it's quite good, actually, although I'm not sure that "pomegranate juice" has any business in beer), I started to think about all the "aviation beers" I've imbibed over the years. For some strange reason, brewers -- especially microbrewers -- seem to be enamored with aviation. Can you name any of your local "aviation ales"? Better yet, can you bring any of them to the "Rec.Aviation H.O.P.S. Party" at our campsite during Oshkosh, for all to enjoy? :-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I will look for that around here. A good trade off for a hangar search
service. Montblack wrote: ("Newps" wrote) If you ever get off your ass and fly somewhere good instead of one flat land airport after another you can fly to this place.

Fly into an area with that many blithering idiots? I think not. Maybe
someday. More important things to do around here at that time.

I'd rather be flying in the mountains. Hell, I just bought a boat. I'd rather take that out. I grew up in the Twin Cities. No way I want to walk around OSH all day and then sleep in a tent. Now if somebody had an RV, maybe. Plans are firming up for ANE, looks like we'll be there about July 8th for a week. I'll let you know for sure later. |

Sounds like it might be anyway. Nothing like a cold one after a long hard day dusting an alphalfa field and breathing in all that Malithion!! :-))) Dudley Henriques |

At MUC there is Airbrau that has very good beer. I have a 5 liter
bottle with a plop-top that I brought back. In Feldkirchen outside of Munich there is Fliegerbrau. They have very nice Weissbier glasses that I bought. The inside has some radio controlled airplanes and some other random stuff. In Oakland there is Hanger One Vodka. Never been there but I have to make the trip one day. Gerald |
