A friendly place for friends who drink

Why's there a small L drawn at the top of that 1?

Ha!

Seriously though that's a great beer.

Ugh...don't feel like I do the serious talks with the kids well. A local 14 year old killed himself yesterday and I find myself trying to explain to my kids that things that seems so important in middle school turn out to be silly when you get a little older. They should really require some intense training of some sort before you're allowed to be responsible for miniature human beings.

Wow. Somehow totally missed this earlier. Sorry man. Parenting is so hard. The one lesson I remember most of all from when I was a teenager was when a youth pastor spent an hour telling us that "Life is difficult". Didn't really stick out to me at the time but I've often remembered that little talk and thought about how he was one of the few people trying to be honest and tell us how life really is.

Wow is this boozy. Lots of rye.

This is such a hit and miss beer. And this year is a miss. Overcarbed and too much roasted malt.

We have had too many deaths in our school district lately. It seems to be a common refrain. A large percentage have been from natural causes, but there has been a fair share of stupidity and self infliction.

Though it is tough on all, it has given is a entry into tough discussion with the eldest.

I remember when I was younger - a neighbor's son (college aged) hung himself in their home. It sincerely affected our immediate neighborhood, and made a huge impression in my dumb middle school @ss.

Its made by Nihilists, you expect them to care about grain bills or carb levels?

They believe in nothing Donny.

Just saw a bloke walking around with a 5' selfie stick. Thought that was only for asian holiday makers.

He seemed otherwise sane.

On the upside. I'm in a room with countless free beers at my fingertips. @1977brewer. Ant pointers?

Mobile tag fail of course.

Must be exhausting

Swmbo keeps trying to get me to shave mine. I'll likely trim it back a nice normal sized beard next month at some point.







Damn! *drool* I'm lucky to score a few between several shops.

SWMBO and I were lucky enough to both get tickets. First time we've been able to get a whole case.

It means "less than"

 

[Qhrumphf]

Also f*** suicide just as much as cancer. I've had a few folks over the years blow their brains out or something similar, and even when I barely know or barely like the person it's never easy. Had a friend a few years back give us all the warning in the world, and none of us noticed until it was too late. Still cuts to the bone.

Went out and met up with @theCADJockey and his buddy at a local brewery. Had a pint and a flight of pretty tasty beers, and back home again. Onto a Citrusinensis and cleaning up the house a bit.

 

[thatjonguy]

I didn't buy it so I'm not sure. But I'm still not sure how good it was.

Next!

Word is they were near $30 per. If you are on the fence, I'm thinking no.

 

[iijakii]

Go to the house, our realtor no-shows. Call the seller but she's busy, she said she's gonna try to get ahold of someone to come show it. Sit there 20mins and she calls back saying unfortunately everyone is busy. Annoyed. There's an open house on it tomorrow 1-3, but my wife works. I'll go to it and schedule a showing tomorrow night for the wife I guess, if it doesnt have offers by then. She's still not sold on living that far out, but slowly convincing her by there's nowhere else we can afford...

First one of these. I'm pretty pleased. Could use a little more vanilla, but not too shabby.

Love dry IPAs.

It's name has dank in it. Too lazy to walk the 30' needed to give you the actual name.

Glad to see you got your bottling setup/Prince Albert shaft-rod

Non saison beer share in out future I hope

That's pretty sweet that you lucked out then!

That stinks. We had that happen once when we started looking.

 

[geoffey]

On to this. And watching house of cards.

On another note, KBS: wasn't a huge fan of it last year but willing to give it another shot this year. Is it hitting shelves soon?

Dude almost time to try your beer. Can't believe I didn't think to bring you a saison. I feel like such an ass. Got a few with your name on them at home. Definitely owe ya. We will cook out and make beer soon for sure.
