Some of you were very disappointed when DNAInfo went away, so I thought I would share this:

Former staffers starting up a new pay site. Looks promising. And as for beer related, check out what a $500 donation gets you.

Best of luck to everyone involved.

That being said, Revolution’s tour is free.

I'm so happy about this.

I picked up 1/25 Todd the Axe Man last night for $9.99 (!) at Binny's.

Calling it a shell of what it once was would be unfair to shells.

Anyone else have this lately?

did the trump tax cuts make hops 60% cheaper? maybe when todd left he took all the citra & mosaic with him to FFF and its now just cascade.

i had it on draft recently and it was fine, though i don't buy it regularly so it's entirely possible and reasonable that my palate is trash

Am I the only one who can do without IPA's in general? and in particular IPA's featuring Citra hops? #beentheredonethat

Please see the Wisconsin thread.
Edit: apparently you already have.

Stopped in at Work Force after grabbing some coffee. Their German-style pilsner was really, really good.

I imagine your great-great grandpa while sippin his moxie soda was waiting for the end of these new fangled cola's. we're probably like 2 years away from a citra-hopped miller lite.

Mostly the realazation making it a year round at close to 20 bucks was a ridiculous idea

 

[jeblikesbeer]

Maximum jimmies rustled when tickets for More’s newest pastry stout went live yesterday. Good grief.

I enjoyed that greatly. Also the fact that the only people I knew in those threads were a few of you upstanding folks poking at the rustled folks

knowing what hops cost, is it a safe assumption they're what I call 'new glarusing' this beer? Aka lose 50 cents on a thumbprint, make 60 cents on a year round, call it a day.

Josh Noel + autoplay video? Already a winning combination. At least quinnsi is there.

I was with you til you said citra.... It at least tastes palatable instead of like rubber butthole. Get rid of Summit hops. Pls. Yesterday. Thx.

Seconded.

Can't think of a hop I enjoy less, and not sure I've ever met someone who likes that onion / garlic character.

I have my own private personal reasons for hating citra hops, although I am not able to divulge them here. It does taste "palatable" and I have no problems with its use, but it just seems to be the cornerstone of almost every IPA/NEIPA, or an afterthought. Like hey lets throw in some citra... also I could see myself coming around on them, as I used to drink many beers brewed with them. Its just annoying to go into a beer cooler @ binnys or somewhere and see 90% ipas and pale ales... but no Tooth and Claw

I mean, I remember when Cascade and Centennial were also cool.

What did a citra hop kill your parents?

I think what they really did was compare the disdain for GI against the lemming type ball-lathering of Revolution.
