Not yet. Maybe Kevin from Ojai can chime in. Or Paul Smrz. Both go to school up in Chico.

Whose Celebration Ale are we talking about here, Sierra Nevada, Chico, Fullers, lots of brewers with a beer of that name. If you can get Deschutes Brewery their Jubule Ale is great. I like Samual Smiths Winter Welcome Ale a s great seasonal.

It's been available here for a little while. As a matter of fact, I'm drinking one right now.

I picked up a case last week. I've already been through a few. Great stuff.

Geez, I've been drinking that stuff for years. I even had a keg of it on one of our ski busses on a Ski Trip back in 2001.

The main bar I'd go to in Upstate NY sometimes had Bigfoot on Tap. They were supposed to sell it in 6 oz glasses...but no one told the bar tenders...

$3.50 for a Pint of Bigfoot...What a completely drunken night that was...

I haven't seen here yet, Santa Clarita or San Fernando Valley. Of course, LA is sort of a good Beer Void. Anyway, I'm headding over to the BevMo after work today to parooz the Anejo selection. I'll check there for the Cele's. I didn't even see any Big Foot's last year. Have to ask for a case from the manager.

Fairground Liquors by the Danbury Fair Mall.

If you want, I'll pick up a case for you tomorrow. But, you have to come and get it before I drink it.

can't drink beer right now, doc has me on some mean pills, that do not mix well with beer. Flying high on legal meds, but no beer. I would take the beer anyday, it has been too long a time
