We are heading east for a family member surgery. At the request of a friend, we picked up his order for several Texas beers. Will be returning to New Mexico with Yuengling and Genessee.

Every time I would head to Cali to meet up a friend prior to going backpacking, I would haul some of his favorite Bend beer down. I'd pack a case in a box and check it in on a Southwest flight.

Just make sure that Bandit filled up Trigger's tank before you hit the road.
When I saw the thread title I thought this was about one of those awful clubs where you do a couple of laps of the local park and have a pint right afterwards.
This is more like it!

Did you get some Jester King?!?
It won’t be long now until I’m jumping states to try new beer! I’ve almost tried it all around here I think.
Last year my friend in IL told me Walgreens was selling cases of Miller Lite for $10.99. Here in Mid TN cheapest I ever saw a case of Miller was $22.99. So naturally I told her to buy me 10 cases. She held them until I could get up there and pick them up. I drove home with 10 cases of beer strapped in the back of the truck.

You really were Bandit!

Thread revival...here we go again. More west coast/Texas beers.
That brings back memories of the time I drove something like 8 or 10 cases (or even more, maybe) from Southeast Texas to Nashville.

Back in the Land of Enchantment with our east coast haul of Genny and Yuengling.
EEEK!. I was on a Yuengling kick last year. Then one night I drank 6 to many and got a TERRIBLE hangover. Haven’t drank them since. A decent full bodied inexpensive beer. But darn, not for me and my drinking habits.
I don't know where in the east, but we have Dogfish Head, Tree House Brewing, Jack's Abby, Evil Twin and Ommegang - you don't have to drink Genesee.
W/ regards to Yeungling: Back in the stone ages (Early Naughts) I first moved to philly and remember thinking why are all these hipsters drinking this random super cheap Asian beer

I grew up with Genny so it’s a sentimental favorite. Love Genny Cream Ale, too, but it is surprisingly difficult to find. When I was in school, pretty much every bar in upstate New York has Genny Cream on tap. The Yuengling is more for my daughter down at Ft. Bliss. Many of her friends miss it and can’t believe her dad would run it for them.
I am a huge fan of Ommegang and usually make a trip up to Cooperstown when I visit my Mom. Ironically, I was able to buy a bottle of Hennepin in Abilene for less than it cost in New York.
Genny is super cheap and below the busch 30 packs in the display fridges at my local stores. Always figured it was shwill. Maybe I’ll give it a go one of these days.
Love Belgian stuff and Ommegang offers some good brews!
I liked Yuengling when I lived in FL. Here is AZ my favorite is Kilt Lifter.
