I really, really, really want this. "Need" is probably a better word.

Odell's Runoff Red IPA is so good. I wish it was available year round instead of just a seasonal.

It tastes a bit like Myrcenary, which is to say fantastic.

Going to Colorado over the Easter weekend for a brewery binge. Planned on hitting Odell, Oskar Blues, Left Hand, and Boulder. Co-worker recommended Crooked Stave and Funkwerks for beers not available in KS. Any others I should try? (New Belgium tours are booked solid fyi)

is available in KS but you should try to get to River North. also Ska. I would think about Great Divide or Avery also.

You're not missing much by not going to New Belgium, it's basically like any other large brewery tour. "here's our brewhouse and some fermenters, here's how beer is made and WE USE THE BEST INGREDIENTS IN THE WORLD! Now let's go to the taproom for some beer."

Thanks for the advice. I had one of River North's Belgian IPAs last weekend. I'll add them and Great Divide to the list. I've been to Avery, might hit it up again depending on if we have extra time in Boulder. Ska is too far out of the way but I would like to go there one day.
