I tried but the service was interminably slow so I bailed.

Excellent!

We've been offering craft since we started beer sales I within the last few years as well, but this year local maker Audacity will be featured throughout the stadium with their own Texas grapefruit IPA, Bulletproof:

Not interested. Maybe Baylor will let you sell it...go schedule them.

Could be pretty good if done well. The hops used in a lot of IPAs are very citrusy so, if done well, a grapefruit IPA could be very good.

A local brewery here in Alabama did a cucumber saison a while back that was one of the better "summer" beers I've had in a long time.

At least one spot is located on west side near Gate 2. There may be one on the east side too. It would probably be located centrally over there too if it exists.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

I know Walloons like fruit in beer but I am not a Walloon so no thanks.

Any ideas where that is sold in Dallas? If well done, that sounds pretty intriguing.

Before anyone dismisses a grapefruit IPA, I suggest you try a Ballast Point Grapefruit Sculpin. Available in 6-pack bottles or cans at your local beverage store. Mmmmmm.

I did. Lines were not too bad. Busy, but less than a 5 minute wait. I liked the fact that they accepted cards too as I forgot cash. Biggest problem was that beer wasnt really cold, meaning they didn't have enough time to ice it down as they were selling a ton. This is a good problem!

Agree with Peruna88- Sculpin and Grapefruit Sculpin are such great IPA's. If you appreciate hoppy beer, the addition of grapefruit makes perfect sense. Hops with a bitter grapefruit/citrus bite are perfect!

Nice! Audacity is making some great beer! Cool little spot up there in Denton too. Some great local spots that always impress me when visiting friends up there (Oak Street, East Side, Harvest House to name just a few).

If you are coming down Saturday, stop by the BLVD and I'll share a few beers if you bring some Bulletproof.

Yes, we were rocking some serious nerd beer at 39 last week!
