Based upon the name I would guess that the '95 version might have actually been brewed in Dallas. I still get teary-eyed driving past the storefront that was the Mountain Tap ;>) Hey Jim – Thanks for the info.

Wayne brewed the Solstice as his homage to Sierra Celebration and the owners thought it was "too hoppy" and wouldn't sell. So I bought the entire batch, save two kegs, for the Mountain tap. After the GABF, they called and asked if they could buy some back. I'm not sure the exact year the Vail pub shut downa nd the Dallas one opened, but the '92 and '94 beers were definitely from Vail.
