Curious about Creature Comforts?

[BusinessSloth]

BTyers ?

Based on chatter on the atlbeer subreddit, there should be a plenty of bottles to last most of the day if not multiple days. The tricky part is that currently they can only charge a single price for a tour, so I doubt that they will be offering tours with bottles to go during a weekday (assuming this tour day does not sell out of all the bottles) because they would either be giving away bottles with the regular tour price or charging a lot more for a tour and a lot of the people who come on a weekday may not want a bottle.

If I hear someone more definite/official about bottle counts, whether it will hit distro, etc., I will post to this thread.

That law is so ******.

That law is so ******.

It's supposed to be getting un-re-interpreted by the department of revenue. Our guild agreed to the un-re-interpretation in exchange for not pursuing new legislation this year(it's an election year and the legislature made it clear that no new laws would be passed).

As long as you don't bring Vogt52 or IllbeBOCK down with you, then us Georgians would love to have you make the trip down and join us for some beers!

Plus, **** you fib

I wasn't going to go to this, as I've had it twice and wasn't really impressed, but I have the day off.. So I guess I can't really say no to that.

factory, you going?

I can't, unfortunately. I am camping next wknd with my daughter's Heritage Girl troup. I do want to try it though.

There's an off chance camping is cancelled due to weather but unlikely. Plan B is, of course, to go in the event this happens

**** that site. I try to use that garbage ass site as little as ******* possible. Can't wait until this thread gets enough activity that I can remove that bookmark.

No. You already made your point on 1 forum. Don't see the point in downplaying an up and coming local brewery on multiple sites.

My bad man, I didn't realize I was only allowed to discuss beer on one website. Did I say it was a terrible beer? No, but I also don't have to love every beer made just because it's local. Beer, and taste in general, is very subjective. Kind of funny to hear someone say I'm downplaying Creature Comforts, when just months ago I was being accused of being a homer for hyping StS too much (which to this day is one of the best beers I have ever had, and put it ahead of MD which many chastised me for). Like I said, not everyone on this site frequents the other sites.

That being said- I don't agree with hyping everything just because it's local. I support local beer and do everything I can to better the scene and laws in this state, but that doesn't mean I love every beer in Georgia- simply because it is made here. That is the wrong attitude to have, IMO.

Never said you had to hype anything local. I personally wouldn't downplay a local brewery in multiple places. Given how ****** Terrapin has become outside of stout variants, that's not easy.

I never said it was a bad beer though, just that I wasn't personally impressed. Obviously I didn't hate it too much if I still plan on going. Also, many people have posted saying they absolutely loved it... different tastes for different tongues, my friend. I haven't bashed Creature Comforts, but I'm also a pretty straight up kind of person... i'm not going to blow smoke up anyone's ass just for the sake of it being a local offering. To each their own. Cheers.

My excitement for Huna weekend just died a little.

 

[Dizzydsmith]

nah, sex_toy_boy will now be there

 

[JulianB1]

Speaking of Huna weekend, looks like this is going to be on draft there.

 

[chongcheesol]

Yeah I hope they bring enough of this beer to Hunahpu Day. Sounds good.

I'm really surprised they aren't (at least listed so far) bringing a keg of StS... seems like it would have been a nice venue to bring one to. Of course, that assuming there is even a single keg left.

No idea about that one specifically, but the impression I've got from what some others have told me is that there is going to be a lot of beer that isn't going to be listed...

Yeah, I kind of assumed that as well. Luckily my 6'4 build was literally designed to run from station to station at beer fests. So once a little bird puts a buzz in my ear about an announced beer being tapped, I'll be there in a jiffy.

Maybe they'll bring a keg of Existence..

You keep chattin' up this speed/height thing. We'll see...

I'm definitely not the fastest, but I'm not the slowest. The key is just to be there before the keg kicks!

Btw, anyone have an update on Athena Paradiso cabs? Trying to take a case down for some buddies.

Should hit ATL next week. Getting canned today(Thurs)

I never heard about this brewery until I entered this forum (and i read DDT threads). Is it only makes cans? And no dark beers?

They both bottle and can. They have made a stout, see the stars, and a porter, koko buni.
