Random Beer Thoughts

[MikeJones]

So the original racist post was from Reckless Brewing Company, so that was real, no?

The screenshotted OP was deleted so I never actually saw it on their page. Can't say for sure but I think so. There are a few other less than tasteful posts on the page but none quite as offensive.

I never saw the OP on the main page but looking at the picture of their beer names I would be surprised if the OP wasn't real.

I mean... if it was fake they should be getting out there ahead of this so ******** like us wouldn't talk **** about them. Looking at their FB, they GOTTA be aware.

It's definitely real because of that.

University of Lincoln Nebraska?

 

[SeaWatchman]

I answered every question with "****ies" not sure why, but it seemed like the right thing to do.

Ugh. Grow up.

Ugh. Grow up.

Now you just sound like my wife. I highly doubt it is an actual person man.

If not they did a good job of taking this person's username, avatar and information from Instagram

Does it matter who is actually behind the keyboard? You should be putting a better foot forward as a site mod, and as a person in general. Love how in one page we’re fine condemning a racist post from a brewery but also okay with posts asking a female to “show us her ****s” or filling in her survey responses with “****ies”? Yeah.

I get it’s not part of this forum’s culture to be open to these kinds of posts about people taking surveys or doing market research and that’s fine, but when your base reaction is to move straight to a conversation because of her gender... do better.

I was hoping a mod would just create a new thread for it so I wouldn't have to read it in here.

So I actually chose to take a non-snarky look at this just because I was bored and somewhat curious what sort of content actually goes into these surveys. My question is this: why did you choose Calsberg as a particular example/case study? If the answer is because they are providing any source of funding, then this information should be disclosed to the participants.

Definitely. Or had a buddy who owed him a favor or something.

Interestingly they're actually going to do a 2nd run according to this story:

https://www.dailypress.com/entertainment/food/dp-nws-smartmouth-brew-second-chance-0305-story.html

I wouldn't be surprised if they sent one now. Normally if it's a one-off it's not worth it.... but doing it twice with no action starts to get into the ol' "defend it or begin losing it" copyright law.

In fairness Nintendo doesn't give a **** about The Answer and all their stupid glassware but that's not getting picked up by every media outlet conceivable.

 

[reverseapachemaster1]

Reckless getting out there on FB and saying the owner lacks empathy and can't understand why people get offended so it's not really his fault.

Trash

Maybe General Mills is a part of all this?

He has a long and sordid history in San Diego. We’ve all known for years to avoid it. Apparently he also sent some questionable emails in his newsletters but I never subscribed so I don’t have access to those.

Hard pass. It’s a ******* internet beer forum. Trolling is far more fun than trying to act like the pope.

FATSH1TTY would be a pretty cool name for a pope.
