Oh, for ****'s sake.

Took the words out of my mouth. Of course he has three tote bags full. Why wouldn't he?

Best takeaway from Rare Day. Just so much going on here.

Last time you took his picture he told you to **** off.

Sadly this isn't my picture. Had I took it another finger would have been used.

Friday's Chicago beer recap:

$3.25 ZD bombers = awesome

Rare Day = lulz, JEG, dickswinging on social media, and Treebs with a sound voice of reason in a sea of hype.


Did I miss anything?

Least surprising photo of the day.

I don't even know who that guy is, I'm an loner Dotty, a rebel...

 

[BobCobb1]

So how is Rare on tap going to work at places? Will it be like $30 for a snifter, or is there a discount because it's not as good without a wooden box.

 

[furley]

wait, is Rare only bad because people couldn't get it?

or is it better because people couldn't get it?

 

[user 306237]

Lined up at 8am for those ZD bombers! Because... of course!

for those of us who do not give a **** about bcbschat at the moment, kegs of unfiltered pilsner urquell are floating around again. I'm drinking one at the fill up station in berwyn and it is glorious. I would buy a ridiculous amount of this if this is what they sent over here on the reg.

there is a post on ccbe that I can't find at the moment with some other tappings of it, but one I know for sure in the next few days is at bangers and lace Evanston.

That is one of the best beers in the world.

 

[stxSS07]

Backwoods Bastard is great this year.

 

[ChicagoGuy]

Just making sure I understand correctly: people beat each other up for Hunter Vanilla, but the perfectly delicious Vanilla Abduction is turding up shelves all over town. Do I have that right?

No, you do not understand correctly.

No, you do not understand correctly.

This post is the very pinnacle of clarity and context.

Oh jesus. I need to find this NOW. Nothing I love more than just an awesome Pilsner.

 

[stxSS07]

When did we get Death By Coconut?

Delicious. Yet another beer that makes me thankful for our distro/not having to chase dumb ass stout waels.

 

[gameover170]

Beer Temple ran a cost analysis and they just said they estimate that total costs were at $11.70 to make a bottle of Rare.

Yeah but what about the box?

 

[thewimperoo]

Yeah but what about the box?

The box made up like $8 of the total.

 

[lb304854]

Rare is really good. Not at all like OG Rare was at release but really good. Marshmallows, oak, good.

 

[BobCobb1]

$3.50 an oz really good?

Who cares?

Word on the street is Rare wasn't put into kegs.

 

[BobCobb1]

Word on the street is Rare wasn't put into kegs.

I wonder why.

Surprised the boxes don't also come with extended directors cut of Grit and Grain.

 

[playaplaya]

Yep. I'll find the tweet by Goose.. All in bottles and wooden boxes. No kegs and also the wood box maker could only find enough Rare wood to supply 2/3 of the order so 1/3 of the Rare bottles won't be released.

That's funny since there was a keg of it at an event last Tuesday...

 

[Ckozl]

Didn't they have kegs at migration week(s)?
