[justforrazors]

Is there any way to merge the last four pages of this thread into what is iso:ft? so we can get back to the important stuff, like if bge will make it to Friday?

Lot of balls touched in here last two days, lot of balls.

Fool.

I don't know if you're referring to me or not- but I'm really not rustled by SeaWatchman or any of the comments Shaun made, I just don't think that's the intent of this thread.

A thread's intent is defined by it's participants, is it not?

Am I wrong?

Srs question.

No, you're right. And for the last 85 pages it has served the purpose very well. Only in the last 5 pages has it degenerated to this.

No there were definitely a few pages back somewhere in the 40s or 50s where Shaun also did something childish that we talked about

[SeaWatchman]

I was totally rustled about El Cat. Still am. I still seriously do not see how me asking what Shaun was mad about now was trolling, but ok..

I had a Double Citra last night and it was really really great.

Am I doing this thread right?

Nope, answer not in essay form and definitely not 100 words.


NO BEER FOR YOU.

I skipped some pages. Anyone find out what shaun's problem with the BA was?

This is a pretty interesting interview with the brewer from Notch talking about the BA: http://www.pivni-filosof.com/2014/03/a-view-from-notch.html?spref=fb

Sounds like he didn't agree with the judging. One of his replies was: "Just disappointing to see world class friends lose to flawed beers."

Apparently trolling = posting a dissenting opinion about Trill Farmstead. You know this!

It would seem that some people actually got banned from BA for good reason!

I didn't quote anybody specifically, just a commentary on the last 4 pages of posts.

If you haven't been banned yet, you're more than welcome to return there. I guess you're not a fan of the 1st Amendment?

I'm not going out of my way to get banned anywhere, but thanks for the invitation.

Nor am I. Just simply posting pertinent information to Hill Farmstead followers.

Anyone open a CD7 recently?

Saw 3 recent reviews on the other site that basically said it was infected and not worth drinking.

For what it's worth, all 3 reviews seem to be related to the same bottle.

 

[BDK82]

I've actually heard the same from someone. Told me 6 drinking amazing, 7 drinking like bandaids.

 

[facesnorth1]

That's insane. When I first got 6 it was just OK, I ended up trading most of it away for peanuts. Then I tried 7 and it was amazing, I clawed and fought to get another bottle or 2. I haven't had CD6 now in forever and I keep hearing it's drinking great. Totally regret practically giving it all away. Sitting on one last bottle of CD7 that I've been looking forward to and this isn't the news I want to hear.....

Both Art and Cantillon lambic age well, so what's the deal? How do sours get infected?

 

[Stevedore1]

Yeah, I had the same thought. Could it be a tasting group with a HF vendetta? Though I don't see the point of anyone ever doing something like that. So it could be contamination of a bottle, perhaps a few (for a 300 bottle release, that's a decent amount). Counterpoint is that the last review before these guys was written a week ago and he appears to have enjoyed it thoroughly. So I was wondering if there were any other recent reports floating around as I've been wanting to trade for this beer for some time now.

 

[bearsonacid1]

Lambic is weird

 

[facesnorth1]

It can go through a lot of changes I guess right? Some lambics have awkward periods for a few months.

 

[JBP]

A buddy with a great palate opened a 7 less than a week ago, said it was fantastic, fwiw.

 

[facesnorth1]

OK I'm gonna write it off as some kind of fluke. I'm pretty sure there's no vendetta, because the bottle came from the Collected Works.
