Nice moment. For us newbies, who's who?

I'm the chump in the Angry Birds t-shirt.

I'm the other one...;D

There are several decent bars at DIA, (Denver Intl Airport).
Chop house on the A, Boulder Beer Tap Room in the Main Terminal,
and of course the New Belgium Hub on the B, to name a few.


Please excuse my ignorance RD... you work at DIA?

Official title: Service Director-Customer Service for United Airlines.

I am a troubleshooter for the gate agents. 1st person they call
when there is a customer service issue,  which lately is just lack
of staffing more than anything...I get paid to be yelled at. It should
explain my knowledge of bars  ;)

I just have to know where much of everything is because I get asked a lot!
I eat at the establishments more than drink...Being on the clock and
surrounded by bars within walking distance sucks...Hence the brewing. ;D

That's gotta be a tough job at times. Do you mean sometimes you gotta meet people in the bars/pubs there and smooth things over? Double whammy. :o

When I'm in DIA, I go to the Que Bueno place, I think around B-56.  Has nothing to do with beer, but it's got to be one of the best places to get food in an airport.  Especially for breakfast.  Great Mexican food.

Wish I could have been there....

And now you have! A new meeting of forum members...


Ruben (Rabid_Dingo)         and            Dave (1vertical)

It was really cool meeting you in person. I hope the flight home was smooth.
Next time lets share a beer! ;D

Well that flight over the Laramie plains Never is smooth but I knew that
even before I booked. Got home safe and sound thanks.  Was great
to finally shake your hand and meet you.  Yes there will be time shared
between us whilst enjoying good beers. It was just not to be this time and
such is the luck of the draw.

Fashion tip:

Undershirts and aloha shirts don't mix.   :)
