For growler fills, it's hard to beat the selection at the bait shop. 515 doesn't do growlers yet.
515 is doing damn good things, and if you're going to be hitting up Iowa beer in the Central Iowa area, you need to include them.
I finally tried the Peace Tree Blonde Fatale on Saturday. To quote restarant guru and food critic Alton Brown, that **** is delicious.
Thanks, on my way there this weekend! Is there anywhere in central Iowa to find Toppling Goliath? I was disappointed that I couldn't find any at Cyclone Liquors
They distribute to Central Iowa, including Cyclone Liquors, the problem is that it sells out the day it's dropped off, usually. If you like them on Facebook, you'll be able to view when they're making beer runs to DSM/Ames.
What time were you at TG? Our paths may have crossed. I got there around 6:00. Prior to that I was nursing some Prairie Bomb at The Cellar.
I tried the Curious Traveler Shandy last night. It was just ok. I'm not a huge shandy fan in general. It kind of feels like an indecisive move to order one. Have a hard lemonade or have a beer, but don't try to have both.
I wouldn't count on that. I was at El Bait Shop when Surly was there and I didn't get the feeling that this was going to happen in 2014, but who knows.

Surly has been doing super limited releases to DSM the last couple of months (Blakr & Furious) but yea, I would not count on full distribution for a while.

that's a nice haul! hope they were all enjoyable.
just moved to Kansas City (kansas side) and i really want to go to the KC Bier Company on 75th Street. they specialize in German style brewing. only place worthwhile i have been to so far has been the Bier Station which was like El Bait shop but only 20 some taps, but they go thru them fast.
and for the record, its a high life tonight.
