In Oklahoma any beer that is sold cold has to be 3.2% or lower by weight. The constitution of Oklahoma classifies that as non alcoholic! That is the grocery store or gas station beer. Any of the good quality beer is only sold in a liquor store. Everyone around here calls that 6 point beer, but in reality is is anything above 3.2%. It can't be sold cold, and in the wintertime if it comes off of the truck cold they have to hold it in the back of the store until it is full room temperature.
The good news is the gas station beer is available 7 days a week, and it is fine for drinking while mowing the yard or any household task. I would have to drink a 12 pack to feel a good buzz and I don't like to pee that much.
I usually drink that 3.2% around the house. Once my vacation starts I change to local micro brews. That brings up a question for D,
Where can I get micro-brew beer in SLC. I am staying downtown at the Little America hotel. Is there a good close by place to get cold micro brew? What about Sundays? Can I still buy beer at a store?
