Gene I assume that everyone in this thread who is not named Julian gets first dibs at the next TB glassware. Thank you.

 

[trickytunadicky]

Dude, calm down. You sound like a pre-teen girl who lost her backstage pass to a Hanson concert.

trickytunadicky can you confirm?

Please advise.

Most of the people (okay, it's 90% women) Hanson meet and greets are confirmed Millennials. I made a friendship bracelet with Zac Hanson once.

What was the question?

EDIT: WTF did I get tagged into?

 

[FoudreGuy]

Is it bad that seeing the words "Hanson" and "pre-teen girl" instantly made me think of one of our resident PNW beer *********s?

Just opened HoG. Imho this beats the following:
M
WH
B1 DwtD
B1 King Henry
and every other barleywine I've had.

Unreal. You don't have to believe me but try this **** and you will most likely agree. Wow HolyMtn

I don't think I could get DQ. I might have to add julian to complete that trade.

 

[chongcheesol]

My bottle of HoG will be here on Monday. Stoked!

You will love it.

I believe I will! Have yet to have anything less than great from HM so far.

Mike (the guy you voiced your concern to a couple times, owner and my business partner) and myself (Colin, other owner who was standing next to him) were already working on some changes for the next release, that evening when we finished up.

If you are going to do awnings, I think I can speak for everyone when I request you go all-out rather than half-ass it.

[evanw1]

Personally, I'd propose the exact opposite of awnings – namely, a system that actually redirects more rainwater onto the people waiting in line. Any effort to reduce the fortitude of the mules is good effort in my book.

Its not like this is the first time you said <insert Holy Mountain beer> is better than <insert every great beer from said style>

 

[RyanG1]

It's better than Heavy Tipper

 

[waltersrj]

Isn't it possible that eventually a beer comes out that beats all other in the style? Pretty sure that's how beer works...

 

[NAD1983]

"It's the best barleywine I've ever had" sounds a lot better than "Its not only the best barleywine ever made, it's also better than <insert every barleywine whale ever made>."

You don't need to list them if it's GOAT in your opinion. It's already implied that HoG is better than those bottles if you just said it's your favorite.

At best you're dick swinging about your barleywine ticks...

 

[FoudreGuy]

Gotta increase 'dem trade values.

Beer.

But yeah, beer is srs bsns.

I honestly prefer this over nothing. I've tried to get this thread going in the past to no avail, so if TalkAwingsAndCocoa.biz is what it took to get this thing going then so be it.

Anyone try the new Amarillo Extra "don't call it an IPA" Pale? I'm hoping to get over there tonight to give it a shot.

 

[evanw1]

Errybody, I crunched the numbers, and my Untappd ratings indicate that HoG is objectively the best barleywine I've ever personally had ever made by any brewer anywhere, ever. Believe me.

[Full disclosure: It really is my personal fav, at least based on my past assessments of various barleywines. Enjoyed it more than b2 A-A-ron. Haven't tried B1K yet though...]

 

[FoudreGuy]

I keep seeing lots of WA people who've never had B1K before. Just checked Untappd and I've had it like six times over the years.

That's, like, the past, dude.

Haven't looked at Instagram today so I didn't know it was a thing. Maybe I'll get over there on Sunday to try it out.

Looks like it's on at Last Drop, might just go over there for some instead.
