    200th Beer Celebration

    We met Wolfhawk Saturday to celebrate his 200th Beer Plating @ The Flying Saucer.

    Congratulations, but - uh - what is a beer plating?

    Hi Melissa,

    Although I am a beer drinker, I know nothing about plating. Please tell all.

    Regards

    The Flying Saucer awards one a plate with their name on it once you have tasted 200 different beers. They call it their UFO club. I really should have given more details since I just learned of it myself! Their site is here:

    Now, go enjoy some beers!

    Thanks Melissa - That's a really great idea. The pub wins; the drinker wins. What more could anybody want.

    Regards

    Congrats to Wolfhawk! When in downtown Houston, I sometimes make a point to visit our Flying Saucer. Greats beers and food! And, their trivia contest is quite the challenge!

    Sorry I missed that event. But I was at the Flying Saucer in Addison at the same time, working my way towards my own plate.

    Rex,

    They have a pub in Houston called Flying Saucers, where you can order a plate of beer with samples from all over the world...The glasses are about 6oz's in size and you can order different varieties like:

    Taste of Texas: Beers micro-brewed in Texas
    Round the World: The top 5 rated beers
    Dark to Light: or visa versa

    It's a very cultural experience.
