I have a plastic cup full of FDR Coffee Stout from 405 Brewing Co. in one hand and a bag full of carbs in the form of pretzels, Cheez-Its, and Animal Crackers in the other.

Read more "Barrels and Mash Presents: The 2017 Oklahoma Craft Beer Festival Awards"Let’s just slow this shit down for a second, Oklahoma.
