Technically red wine should be served at 65 degrees. I doubt any liquor stores in Oklahoma set their thermostat that low...
I don't think the "adult Capri Sun" boxes in my house are ever under 68 degrees.

OK, I stand corrected, but my point was, the brewery had a refrigeration requirement that Oklahoma by law could not comply with. So no NBB beers for Oklahoma.
I wasn't trying to prove you wrong necessarily, I just wanted to show exactly how ridiculous the law is. NBB has been able to work around the issue with other states/counties but not Oklahoma! As far as Belgium style brews, I really like Ommegang. Their Farmhouse Hennepin is one of my favs right now. I also like their Three Philosophers brew. I guess I saw the picture of the mound of whatever that was and blacked out from the chest pains and totally forget it was even a part of this thread.

Why?
It probably is because I have had to drink the 3.2 version my whole life, and when I finally had the chance to taste what the real deal tasted like. It ruined me on buying the Okie watered down stuff. Oh the hell with it ! It's most likely because I cant have it so it makes me want it all the more.

Yep, that happened to me as well living down in Texas.

I will drink Boulevard wheat when I'm working around the house and a beer sounds good, or occasionally a Coors "yellow belly" if I'm meeting friends out. It's more or less water for us serious drinkers With all the driving trips I made out of state last year, I kept bringing back Fat Tire and other NB products. Finally though, I just kind of lost my taste for Fat Tire. It's got somewhat of a sunflower seed note to me. Santa Fe seems to have more of a full body to it. Don't get me wrong, I'll gladly bring it back as gifts and won't turn one down if offered, it's just not a primary brew for me anymore. My tastes seem to change a few times a year anyhow.

Yep, I know the feeling. Except for Sundown Wheat, though. That never gets old for me. Guess I will have to go out this evening and get the Nut Brown and see what all this hoop-la is.

I thought you'd already tried that. Their IPA, Porter, and Happy Camper (canned IPA) are all pretty good brews and an attractive price point. I think Collins has all varieties as well as Ranch Acres.

Nope, not yet. Of the NBB offerings, a buddy of mine, after I had told him I had just got back from Kansas, had told me he liked the NBB 1554 a little better. I may have to split FT and this 1554, which BA notes as a Belgian Dark Ale with an ABV of about 5.6. Sounds tasty. Next roadie...
