The coin also entitles you to bottles marked up 30% higher than the retail shelf price.

It doesn't help you now but they've admitted that was a pricing mistake and offered gift cards or something as recompense.

I know, I was just messin. But there is a hint of truth to it. I'd still be upset if I were in the league.

We need to stop censoring kunt

 

[MrDave]

We need to stop censoring homie

I never know if people are saying homie, homie, or just plain homie when they say homie.

For me I'm usually saying homie when I say homie.

 

[jtmartino1]

I'm just a homie, homie.

 

[MrDave]

just a quick recap. The only censored words are ****** (N), **** (C), and retarded (R), correct?

 

[tosh1]

I always mean **** when I say ****. Always.

 

[MrDave]

Very English.

 

[rrryanc]

just a quick recap. The only censored words are librarian (N), homie (C), and ridiculous (R), correct?

R is what, retard?

 

[rrryanc]

R is what, homie?

Apparently, yes.

 

[rrryanc]

Apparently, yes.

Also, I'm more than happy to call someone developmentally challenged, or mentally disabled. Never got the censoring of the specific R-word though. It's one of the few cases where it's not the word that conveys the context, but the specific meaning behind the word.

Off to Temescal Brewing. Worth lugging a growler out?

 

[MrDave]

...for the back?

 

[MrDave]

Was there a shitload of children when any of you were here (Temescal)? Of the 60+ ppl here, over a dozen are babies and toddlers. Kinda got a daycare vibe.

No disrespect to parents, just a little weird for a Fri Night.

Just left there like 10 minutes ago and yes, there were a ton of infants and toddlers. I don't generally care for kids so I'll say it: don't bring your kids to the bar.

I don't think I was saying that, but you still made me laugh (hence the like). But yeah, that **** was over the top. Seriously, the strollers kept rolling in the whole time I was there.

Guys, there's like about 6398274 "you should/shouldn't bring your kid/dog to the brewery/bar" threads over on BA if you gotta get it out of your system. For some reason this debate is about 2 degrees cooler than the 2A stuff going on over in the "toxic topics" thread. Lets not do 6 pages of this right now. Pretty please?

How were the beers? Seems most people only favor the porter.
I wanted to go on Wednesday after picking up Map of the Moon but they were closed

 

[brokensail1]

I know you weren't saying it. I am just an ass and I got my pot shot in, so I'm good.

The beers were good for the most part. I didn't retry Block Party, but I liked Way Fun, Works Like a Charm, Visitation, and Old Smuggler. Thought Totes was not very good.

Including the stuff I'd had before, they're definitely off to a good start. It's not typical that I try a bunch of beers from a (new) brewery and like 75% of them.

Was yours the chunky one pulling the makeshift car with washers and screws sticking out of it?

JK, the beers were promising albeit underwhelming. Of the hoppy ones, the IPA was most enjoyable. I showed up with and left with an empty growler, FWIW.

I brought my kid there. It's probably a timing thing, 5-7 is going to be kiddie time at a place that allows them, afterward they'll all be in bed. You'd be surprised how few beer places there are that you can bring kids to, a place like Temescal (ie rapidly gentrifying neighborhood) is going to be strollertown around 5:30.

I suppose that makes sense. Again, I am not saying you shouldnt take your kid to the bar, but I have never seen anything like this before. Just pretty jarring to get off work, hop on BART, get off at MacArthur, and walk right into that much baby action. I don't mind kids and almost none of them were individually distracting due to their behavior, but the whole lot of them was...well, a lot. It was like if every dog at faction was a baby. The way every stroller coming down Telegraph turned into the place seemed as if it were coordinated; or maybe someone posted the front page of their website that boasts "well-behaved children and dogs welcome" to some Temescal Parents Club FB page and everyone was like "let's go right now!"

Were you there tonight? Totally woulda bought you a beer for putting up with my Bernie **** on the other thread. Cheers!

Tasty wasn't one of them! His FB post makes so much more sense now.
