Random Beer Thoughts

[boogercrack]

What's funny is there are a bunch of these. Terrapin's mosaic red IPA comes to mind. In fact for a long time I didn't get the hype around mosaic because all the examples of mosaic-heavy beers I'd tried had been mediocre.

Then I had Society & Solitude 6...

I keep a keg of yellow rose going nearly all the time and have zero desire or need to buy any other ipas. The concept of even considering a trade for some is lol. **** is pretty good right now for me.

Well that's Terrapin's fault for making their mosaic a red ipa with a ton of crystal malt clashing with the hops. Terrapin is also just consistently underwhelming.

Some people can't beat the game even with cheat codes activated.

Bastard is only a $68 case from the distributor. We are selling it for $14.49.

I thought Harvest was better this year than last, funny how **** works.

Founders Porter and the new to everywhere but Michigan Mosaic Promise are both reasonably priced and delicious.

I would swear that was on the shelves in Chicago last year, but I go to Michigan so much, I could easily be wrong and not even know it.

Pretty sure it was a MI only release as a fundraiser for Art Prize, but maybe not?

Nope. Definitely sold in Chicago last year.

Yep, my bad. I just checked and it was MI, WI, Chicago and NYC.

I'm just glad it's back, although Founders didn't really make a big deal about bringing it back. They put ******* Rubeaus all over the interwebs for weeks every year, but Promise was pretty quiet.

Not really a fan of the new branding for Jack's Abby. Nothing really wrong with it, but it's just kinda boring and has no uniqueness. It will get lost on the shelf with everything else now. At least before they had a clear identity.

Yeah, not sure why they didn't wait a bit more time before redesigning. New look is crap. The old, more amateur style design work was actually better.

Too many people think they are dontdrinkbeer.

Reminds me of this:

Sometimes I see a dontdrinkbeer instagram post and think "He gets me. This is my brand of levity." Then I get seriously witty with my retort. Sometimes I incorporate an inside joke from the forums, but other times I just get straight wacky... all of his followers are like "WOAH who is this?! A prodigy in the making, no doubt."

Our highest-rated and most coveted beer, Barleywine will return right after Thanksgiving. It will also be available in limited quantities at select retail locations in two-packs of cans. It has been aged in bourbon barrels and offers a rich, bold flavor that is perfect for the holidays.


YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES. Although, lol at 2pks.

So Dark Woods just hit Total Wine by me for 17 bucks a bomber. **** that man, it was 13 bucks at the brewery. This South Florida CCB hike is lame as ****.

Homebrew I had a few years back, don't remember the beer but will never forget the label.

I still have this bottle. I feel very privileged.

 

[ncaudle]

no, I will not add a CD11 as an extra to my CD14 for your CD15.
yes, CD15 is more $$ than CD14 but CD14 is more limited than CD15.

if I had a CD11 and looking for CD15, you with the CD15 better ******* add!
