The nice lady at the Allagash help desk said they pulled out of distribution from Western PA, but wink wink might be expanding in the near future, six months or so.

This was fun https://shop.allagash.com/collections/trinkets/products/toms-tidbits-keiths-knickknacks

Maple, whiskey, and lots of vanilla?

Shitting on Pittsburgh beer that you've never tried?

It's almost as if Shuggy isn't gone after all.

Never liked vanilla in beer. Don't have to try every vanilla beer made to know if I'm going to like the next one or not. Don't understand the "adding vanilla to everything" trend in craft beer at this moment, but it's just another thing that makes me dislike its current direction.

You should try the new vanilla BCBS. The vanilla is suuuuuuuper subtle.

Kinda like if a vanilla bean were subjected to a nuclear experiment gone awry that transformed it into a huge, mutant vanilla bean with arms and legs that then went rogue and got out of control. The mutant vanilla bean tore through the walls of the lab and took to the streets as a lone marauder, only to stumble upon you alone and vulnerable. You would try to run, you would struggle, but ultimately the mutant vanilla bean would overpower your valiant attempt at survival. It would open itself, and encapsulate you in it's warm yet hellish vanilla bean cocoon.

That's kinda what the new vanilla BCBS is like, if I had to ballpark it.

Well done, sir. Well done.

Is vanilla bean split and scraped pre-encapsulation? Cause that would ultimately determine the quality of my experience in this situation.

I'm gonna say it was unscraped, because it's gonna take every little bit of that goo to properly capture how much god damn ******* vanilla they used in the 2018 vanilla BCBS.

Holding judgement until I understand how many Black Magick or Prairie Dawg units I can get for my bottle.

Floaty or non-floaty PDs? Cause that makes a pretty big difference.

Just checking, but as far as we know the Pgh beer industry is pretty much sex-predator-free, right?

Yeah, this isn’t Ohio.

Seriously...? "Lots"?!

 

[dadavat]

Seriously...? "Lots"?!

Yeah in the past year+. Just be aware if you go there with a gf/wife/etc

 

[epicureIO]

I wonder how many overdressed couples are in line at Homestead right now.

 

[preluderl]

I could easily drive out there now but I'm too lazy. This is what it's come to.

Yeah I just don't want it that bad to leave my house on a rainy night. I wish they had on-site bottles you could drink whenever

I wonder how many overdressed couples are in line at Homestead right now.

I wonder how many couples just had their last date because Vood...er... beer broke them up.

Can’t speak to the breakups, but i did not see any well dressed couples at Homestead. Just the usual crowd minus the BG Formal people. How about that release timing though? What a coincidence.
