A friendly place for friends who drink

The Hertz at SFO rents a Porsche 911 for $600/day. Might have to go that route.

How many cases of RR can you fit in that tiny ass trunk?

Only one way to find out. Plus I wouldn't mind making several trips in that car...

Folks being abused and harangued left right and center, CAD being accused of gif abuse.

Makes me thankful of the friendly thread I tell you what.

@finsfan is mighty quiet today. I hope a slab of full cans didn't fall on him.

I would love to dive through those towers of empty cans ala snow cat gif. That would be fun. Expensive but fun.

HB Pilsner on lunch break. It's actually a pretty good beer now that it's lagered a bit and the remaining yeast has dropped out, and I dropped the kegerator from high 40s to 30s. Definitely not a big fan of the classic american lager yeast though. It doesn't taste like a pilsner. Going to keg the helles this week and then rebrew a pilsner with the good deutsche yeast.

Was that yeast from your local brewery?

Also Helles/Pils season 365 or something.

Boring season 365.

Might be able to come meet you for a beer at some point, depending on your schedule. I'm smack in between those two cities.

I'm definitely the opposite of socially inclined, but I can pretend for short periods of time.

Hey... I have enjoyed tubing down your river area... with really, really cheap beer, mind you. I shall let you know if/when (at some point) I get the SWMBO to agree to a schedule.

Dude. I so would. Beercations aren't in the budget though. I'll probably be laying hardwood that weekend if you wanna swing up to Weatherford. It's a really nice 5 hour drive, 6 if you come the back way through the hill country.

Hrm... You come more towards the SAT/Austin direction, I can probably spring for some beer!

$1k well spent.

PS - love that gif, always makes me smile

There's a whole lotta poking the bear going on 'round those parts. Think I'll steer clear for a while.

Wouldn't be the first time I met an internet friend down there. Hell, I went to ones wedding out that way. We swing by his house in Houston every time we're through. He's couch surfed at my place a few times.

I apparently have little regard for my own safety.

Nah, local ones werent giving out any lager yeast. Too busy brewing boring IPAs or something.

For me right now it's just sub 6% beer 365. DEMs, brown porter, pils, helles, pale ales. Cant remember the last big beer besides this sweet stout I brewed. Well, I can actually, it was an IPA. Still. #SmallBeer365

That's like, the exact opposite of my philosophy.

I hardly even look at beers under 6% any more... I'm drinking to catch a buzz first and foremost.

So drink three DEMs. You're welcome.

Honestly there's just something magical about these small quaffable beers. So dry and crushable, I thought you of all people could appreciate it, Mr Busch.

Hey. Keep politics out of it.

Yeah... I made some (before you, obviously) and I had to use my 22 oz glass in order to cut down on the trips up and down the stairs (which were many).

My DEM was 2.7%... so it was almost a joke. Delicious beer, no doubt, but won't be doing that again for some time.

 

[iijakii]

Yeah mine was 3.2 and a 3.7, I think.

 

[banesong]

I had to watch that multiple times. Laughed each time.

Hey... Austin is only ~3.5 hours away!

The day has 9 more minutes. Gonna leave in 7. I am such a rebel!

 

[iijakii]

Taped the bathroom's fan on this morning. For awhile now some *********s keep dumping and then turning the fan off. Incredibly annoying. If this doesn't work I'll put up a sign threatening to cut anyone that turns it off.

 

[finsfan]

Water. Had about seven different samples before leaving work though. One of the conveyor motors seized so i was let off an hour early. Decided to go hang with the brewers and drink beer.

Can't you just have a heart to heart talk with the SWMBO on this subject?

Water and starting the trip home. Pouring rain all afternoon - I hope Penn station isn't a cluster today.

Bah, you guys and your high alchy-haul beers. Soons as I figure out the beer gun, I shall shower ya'll with ~1.8% rye pale ale!

When will you be in Austin?

Sometime during 19-27 March. Gonna do two days one night up there when we are in San Antonio for the week.

Do you laugh exceptionally loud at their jokes and then tell them they're so funny too? Or is it all work and no play?

 

[iijakii]

Would love to hear more about that rye pale ale, @banesong .

I need to work up a counterflow bottler too. Too cheap to buy a beergun and too lazy to make a counterpressure filler right now. Need to share DEM with the masses though.

Mine is a 3% beast of a beer. A fun tasty experiment but I like em a bit bigger. If I had more taps I'd keep one in the mix. Grain to keg in a week and they cost about $12 (excluding yeast). I am very much a bandwaggon hopper when it comes to DEM. Still secretly hoping the Alt craze will catch on.

Have they initiated you in the appropriate manner yet?

Me neither. But thats OK, SWMBOs got enough regard to spare.

I'd be glad to meet up with just about any HBTer, well.........just about anyone...
