Now I think I need another die-cast.
Regan Smith, a generally average driver in the Sprint Cup, will drive the 88 car in the next three Xfinity Series races. The Xfinity events are NASCAR's minor leagues. Some of you may remember them as the Nationwide Series, or another of the dizzying parade of major sponsors that I've completely forgotten. Smith's turn behind the wheel is unremarkable, but his major sponsor is not.
Smith will be running the Dale's Pale Ale Chevy Camaro. In fact, he already did, taking the car to an 11th place finish on Friday night at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Longtime G:TB readers will be well aware of our affinity for Oskar Blues' flagship brand, the first craft beer to be packaged in cans. It's heartening to know that Dale's is successful enough to be able to afford national exposure.
And it's only a matter of time before the pioneering brewery meets its namesake on the track. Dale Earnhardt, Dale's Pale Ale. Match made in heaven. Or at least in North Carolina.

Dale's was on tap at the PGA this weekend so unconsumed numerous pints of it. Now finishing up the weekend at Bay Bay's chicken and waffles. It's a tiny hole in the wall in Palm Beach with awesome food. About to eat a red velvet and pecan waffle with a fried chicken thigh on top. And some orange Fanta to drink. Might pass out from food coma on the drive home.
I did not know Dale's was an Oskar beer. Their Pinner Throwback IPA is tasty. I had a couple cans last night.
what'd your husband have?
because it's a low-alcohol session beer, see? never mind.
mark is a champion eater. i need to hang out in his hood.
It was amusing when Evan inked a Schrader 25 onto his cast, only to realize that using a mirror to help meant he did it backwards.
Just completed a poison ivy cleanup in zyard. Pray for me.
You don't see this headline every day: "Mongolian wrestling coaches strip off clothing in protest of call"
One of the coaches displayed what he calls his "Mongolian BBQ." Not pretty.
Wait, Bartholomaus coaches wrestling?
Hi Dave
Ki was also a big fan of the Mongolian BBQ. Not sure about DJ Seoul.
Hi All.
Hi Danimal. Do you have Zika yet?
I love Dale's but I find I'm more willing to give my beer money to independent brewers these days. I'll occasionally still pick up some Dale's but it's no longer always stocked in the basement beer fridge.
