Pay attention. 2÷ is 133÷ of 1.5÷. (I think my card's better for foreign conversion rates than Tommy's.)

Yeah but I also get $$$$ back so that's another 2%

 

[tommyguz]

Glad you guys got that figured out. What are you going to do with that ≤1.5% savings windfall? You can almost buy a half beer at The Brew Gentlemen with it.

Imma put it in my piggy Bank

Is that what you call your beer cellar?

I'm working on a big airmiles bonus, but not counting that against the beer cost. But I definitely include shipping and currency conversion fees in beer cost.

I could talkcredit all week!

Hey yinz (kbuzz HeadHunter dadavat wyckydsceptre)
Quicksand at Mr. Smalls Thurs sept 28th!

I don't know much about them. I'm pissed I missed converge and neurosis the other day. Sold out.

Neurosis were better than I could have ever imagined. Also, one of the loudest bands that I have ever seen. Up there with Khanate.

Quicksand will be great and so will Kamasi Washington in November. This year's concert calendar is going to destroy me.

I saw converge and Neurosis last night in Toronto. Only my second time seeing neurosis but man, they rule.

I...didn't love Neurosis. They are much more of a headphone, by myself band to me. I was honestly kind of bored. Converge killlllled it though and I don't like them on record. A really great live band. I must've been having an off night of something. That god damn reefer vape pen messed me up.

Loudest bands I've ever seen probably are Lightning Bolt, Swans, Deerhunter, Boris, Earth and of course Sunn o))). #dronehumblebrag

I'd be afraid of that. I feel that way about baroness.

I saw lightning bolt at Belvedere's years ago. They were insane live.

Saving up for a full pour?

We were probably there together. My first show when I moved to Pittsburgh.

 

[TempDownAtKZUG]

Lightning Bolt and White Mice at the Lawrenceville Moose was up there. Never has an opener floored me like White Mice. What a band.

 

[OneDropSoup]

This is hard for me to admit, but...I...I think I like some metal. I blame you jorks.

 

[preluderl]

The horror! I thought only 80's thrash punk and folk indie fusion rock was allowed in these parts?

metal is the new folk indie fusion rock

 

[OneDropSoup]

How many record store employees does it take to change a light bulb?

Spoiler

You don't know?

What even constitutes metal anymore? I legitimately have no idea. I hate musical genres... They seem so forced. MUST. LABEL. ALL. THE. THINGS.

Yeah. The complete opposite of beer

You'll know metal when you hear it, however it might be false metal.

 

[Kinney]

Sooo who's gonna be at BG tonight for the prototype release?

I should be there around 545.. im hoping I can still grab a glass.

I'll contemplate this while I throw on some Dimmu Borgir.

 

[jagoffbrewer1]

Got to try both Whole Punch Dreamsicle and Roundabout Requisite IPA this weekend. I thought the Whole Punch was outstanding. Really enjoyed this version (hadn't tried this one before). The vanilla is subtle but there and really compliments the beer. Going to need to try to get another growler before its gone. I didn't love the Requisite IPA. Something seemed off to me in the malt profile. Can't quite put my finger on it. Wasn't bad but wasn't great either.

Thanks for stopping in man, glad you enjoyed Whole Punch.

 

[london1o11]

Anybody know what's going on with Steel City and Shelton? Is that still happening?

 

[TempDownAtKZUG]

Yep. Last I heard is that they were waiting for an updated inventory to make the next drop happen.

You should be ok, still going now.

 

[Kinney]

Missed it by two people. Seriously was pissed. If parking wasnt an extra clusterfuck I wouldve gotten a glass.

More annoyed because I saw them serving their friends on the side while I waited in line.

Couldnt believe how packed it was.


But still always worth the trip. Tried Slazer Beam.. probably the worst IPA ive had from them, thats not to say its bad, it just was kinda flat.


That porter is fantastic though. Hope it sticks around for a long long time.

I thought it was pretty tasty. Preferred it over the CPA i had.

 

[Kinney]

I love CPA, possibly my favorite pale ale, havent tried this batch though.

 

[PSUMike]

Slazer beam was really good. Had a nice, firm bitterness to it that I so desperately miss. The amarillo came through nicely as well.

Agreed. Slazer Beam is my favorite hoppy offering they have on currently. The Mr Automatic is like brownie batter in porter form. Really loving it.

Mr Auto is delicious. Lots of chocolate and coffee. Need to stop back for some more
