My favorite place to browse for beer is at a Valero station in Colleyville. "Great Minds..."

The stop and robs with walk in coolers are starting to stock a better selection then just Bud and Silver bullet, but they still don't have a huge selection(at least none of the ones around my house). If you haven't been there and there is one nearby, Spec's has just about anything you can want, and if they don't alot of times they will order it for you.

There are a handful of gas stations around my neck of the woods but there is 1 that stocks some really good micros, I've found Scottish IPAs, Belgium Porters, local brews...it is astonishing that a hole in the wall gas station cares so much for their beer drinking clientele LOL

I haven't started brewing any of my own (yet) but I always look for out of the ordinary micro brews. I've come across some really good Porters and Stouts at the gas station down the road from my house...shocker. My hubster always pokes fun of me and tells people that I like to "chew my beer" while he leans more toward the blonde end of the beer spectrum. There is a really good micro brewery over in San Antonio, The Busted Sandal, we went there for a tour a while ago. Very good beer! Their Pumpkin Porter was the best I've had.
