Anybody going to (or have been to) the Saison Day at TRB this Saturday? I will likely be there for a bit, and down to touch tips as it were...although I may not be too social if I can get quality reception of Dubs game on my phone...

Yeah, I would go to TRB later, but unfortunately I've got a family thing in the afternoon. One of these days I'll get out to The Bistro, still haven't been...

Has anyone heard if Death & Taxes is going to hit distro further south than the bay area?

I haven’t even seen it at any of the places I go yo here.

I know it hit a couple places in the bay area. Hopefully they sold enough to see a benefit to send it south/more places in the bay area.

Doubling up on cask beers folks...tandem and twist of fate combo

 

[rrryanc]

I was going to say this. A place like Mail Boxes Etc. They don't give a $hit.

Or print UPS/FedEx labels at home and spend a few extra bucks to schedule a pick up at your house or work. The drivers don't give a fu(k

Lastly, if it's going to a place on the west coast, just use GSO. They are quicker and cheaper and don't care if you're shipping beer. You could literally write, "Careful BEER inside. Don't drink or break the BEER inside" all over the box and they'll ship it.

You know you can cuss on the internet, right?

Any Superstition fans out there? Looks like K&L just got some nice-looking Blueberry Mead and Cider in. Superstition/Mead is a relatively new interest of mine, so I have no idea if this is commonly available, but thought I'd share.

It has been hanging around, or there was a previous release. The White series is expensive.

You can order it online too. If they don't have stuff you want in stock.

Also, check out Schramm's for your beetus needs.

Superstition is fantastic, but pricey. I'm stoked it's much easier to get these days than it was 2-3 years ago.

That 4/20 4 pack by Altamont is pretty great.

How do you guys pronounce Ripon? As in the city, Ripon, California.

I've always pronounced it "Rippin'" but I have no idea if that's correct

The Moksa event at the T is going swell.
Pastry Method is legit af

It’s legit

Wow, how did Pastry Method sell out this quickly? So used to world-class beers hanging out on the board for days. Never even heard of this beer or brewery before, and yet everyone else seems to have gotten the memo!

Speaking of pastry stouts, Beer Basement has Coconut Rye Parabola on deck, but they couldn't tell me when they were planning to roll it out. Hope it lasts more than a couple of hours...

I've always wanted to try the Ambassador growler fills at RB, but a full membership made no economic sense for a non-trader such as myself. Any chance I could I call dibs on that? (If sombody wants it more, that's fine!)
