Everything I gathered over the years comes from actual brewery and brewpub visits so I’ve never approached it from a scarcity perspective. Many of those places are now closed so there might be a residual rarity in that regard but the real value comes from the memories these mementos invoke of an unrepeatable experience. I guess if I were to single out one, it would have to be the Bardo Rodeo growler which probably has little rarity but lots of personal value. I’ll never forget my wide-eyed stare as I first entered its cavernous space on its opening weekend, nor of the countless evenings spent there afterwards as I could walk to it from where I was living at the time. I think I even have a couple of their frequent drinker T-shirts hiding somewhere too. That’s perhaps a dubious achievement but one certainly evocative of a time.Twelve Mile Circlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17327090876150382911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6760958785336796611.post-31783589021593290062009-09-29T12:35:05.138-04:002009-09-29T12:35:05.138-04:00Ah.

He just randomly happened to provided you with a link to the image on my site, I'm guessing. It's all good though, and I really do enjoy your blog.

I didnt feel like carrying them at the time, and would figure I would pick them up before we left (5 min later) and yep they were gone.
