Thanks for thinking of me. I get their emails, too. I'm not sure I've ever ordered from them, maybe I signed up at NHC. Looks like $37.47 for two five gallons for me with shipping. I'm not sure saving $6 a piece is worth it to me over going with American made Better Bottles from my LHBS instead.
 
You will be much nicer come the day you want to move a beer to secondary and you have one of these pn hand. Otherwise you will become bitter and mean. ;)

Iv already got a 5 gal better bottle. I was looking at getting two 6 gallon one for primary. I use a 6.5 gallon bucket right now and id like to see whats going on in there haha Just not sure if I need 3 primaries right now
 
Remmy! I can't keep up with you mang!! Mostly because my supplies are limited and I'm stuck at the apt with no ride. :( But I did have this with lunch!! Pretty good for a wheat! Again, courtesy of NIZZLE.

Yet another beer proving how much Three Floyds has gone down hill. When that beer was a 22oz seasonal, it was amazing.

What a negative nancy! ;)

Actually I wouldn't know. It's the first time I've ever had an FFF.
 
My imperial stout. 5 beers (two 8.6% abv) in a 2 hr span. Semi-nice buzz right now.

You're the one who said it was 'pretty good for a wheat'. :p

Leftover chicken fajita tacos and a *gasp* pint of my farmhouse pale out of my fooking homer glass.

Your LHBS is good then - for me it's $9 a piece plus an half hour drive each way. I support them and will continue to, but I'll also save some $$ when I can.

Just finished my last water a while ago. It's always critical to make sure the bladder is empty before being trapped on a train for a few hours :)

They don't have bathrooms on trains in this country? Yet another sign of American ineptitude.

My LHBS rocks! Part of why I shop there as much as possible.

Hit me up if you ever want to get smacked when you come to Connecticut or New York City.

Well...well...whatever! I don't...it's...see, I just...SHUT UP!! You're gonna make me cry! I'm TELLING!! ;)

Actually, I'm not a wheat beer guy, but as far as wheat beers go, Gumballhead was one that I would drink again. Would Like to try a berliner weisse at some point tho. Even tho it has wheat in it, I make an exception because of the lacto and other creatures inhabiting the brew.

They do. It's called the corner.
 
Running is boring. I agree. I find that sprint workouts keep me a lot more motivated than running at 6-7 mph. Boring as ****.

That's what I do on "cardio" days. I put cardio in quotes because every day I workout is essentially an interval cardio session, but I count my kettlebell workouts as weight days.

Drinking water after my sprint workout. Should be moving on to beer after I go out to pick up some beer for a trade.

Oh , they have compartments labelled as bathrooms , but I can't get within five feet of one due to the stench. Actually going in one isn't even a consideration.

Note - I'm talking about MTA and NJT here. I would use one on Amtrak if the need arose.
 
For the record, non-NYC people is what ****s up every borough. Tourist bastards. Transplants. It's sickening. Wannabe NYCers.

Whatever, dude. NYC blows and we all know it. ;) Overcrowded city full of pricks and assnuggets. Why anyone would aspire to live or do business there is beyond me.

I believe that even though the buy out, the Chicago brewery deals with all the barrel aged stuff. I don't think InBev has much to do with the barrel aged stuff!
 
HB Brown Ale after brewing. I was gunna wait but this is my reward for keeping a level head after things went sideways at the end (siphon clogged with hops, forgot to take gravity reading, etc) :mug:
