i liked barleywine before it was a meme

#bildoesntdefineme

I was into Barleywine before I knew #BIL was a thing or that DDB was really into it. I never knew there were others like me. I always knew Bigfoot was a big deal. I was super bummed when Brooklyn stopped making Monster. But seeing others being into it has made me embrace it and look for it more. **** I got a case of Olde School just so I can pop open one any time I want.

I was into Bigfoot on labels back in the mid-90s (see Kokanee junk-lager) and transitioned to the SN variety based on mascot over a decade ago. Who knew they were such different beers? But I dug the latter and searched out more barelywines. Eventually Krunehanns Bibibibibiswine and it was over. Then some scenster (probably into the Descendants) raved about K's BBBW on a blogger site and subbeedoo was born. But I was there long before. I just didn't brag about it.
 
which meme is that?
I meant the otter/maris otter thing in general (obv not the final image). I remember because I heard the pun verbally a few times before he actually made the image. I think he posted the otter carrying the bottle of Great and you redid the caption for DDB (and maybe cleaned up the image a little). I would have to go through his computer to find it, though since it wasn't something he put on Insta.

Ah I know that meme, we were well in the Maris canon by that point.

True, lots of talk about Maris Otter the malt, but I don't remember seeing any otter memes before this one on 9/20/17.
On 9/20/17 there's the one of Maris holding the great like a rifle on IG but it's too close to concurrent that I can't see the hour stamp. Twitter has it at 1:21pm so it might be derivative. I think arren did the shoooop

It would take endless BIL scrolling to get to the bottom of this but you're right around that time is when otters started popping out of the mash

I was just complaining to a friend earlier today that 15+ years ago, forums solved many of the problems present with trying to navigate/find things in FB groups.
