Random Beer Thoughts

[Ziggy]

Word on the street, is that westy 12 is coming back to the US. Probably another sixer gift set/glasses. Probably expensive as hell.

Think it might not be six packs:

Eh, I got a few bottles of XII (from the abbey not from the US release) and thought it was just "ok/fine". If you want to drink the style just get St Bernardus Abt 12. If you want the tick don't work too hard for it.

The first time this many dudes ralked about having no problems getting a 3-way.

When people refer to saisons/lambic as "sours"

do you mean beer people that should know better (industry folks, self-proclaimed "experts", those that talk loud about beer) or just regular every day people for which the over-arching terminology is sufficient? those that haven't studied beer in depth that don't really need to differentiate in daily conversation?

It's a random beer thought, and I'm annoyed this morning about something else and saw it on untapped reading about Tired Hands WOL, just venting ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"Of course it's sour, it has Brett in it!"

Please more Tired Hands smack talk.

I don't really have a problem with this (depending on the context), except that saisons should not be referred to as "sour" unless they are actually sour. I think that problem mostly occurs due to newmoney beer nerds who only drink hyped brewery stuff, so they think "saison" = "Side Project/HF/Tired Hands/etc".

Their milkshake brings all the folding chairs to the lot.

Well fresh they're all pretty fungible. Aged, however...

(Though, TBH, I haven't had much aged Bernardus, just don't really come across it and I've been super lazy about just buying some...)

I had it in January 2016. So I assume the bottle date was sometime in 2015. Maybe some age has helped it. I know I got 3 total but I know I have at least 1 left.

So apparently some neckbeard brought (or possibly just sent, without going himself) his grandmule to Cycle today. Meemaw proceeded to pass out (or have some other kind of medical emergency) and paramedics had to be called.

I ******* hate beer.

Never had it, so I added one into the final slot of my last Etre order. Worth a shot, sometime this year.

From a FB post about the incident:

"She called her son and told him that Cycle was going to hold 3 bottles for him. True Story"

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

 

[iong516]

Went to Cycle's fb and dug around some posts, the comment threads are 50/50 pure troll or trade offer tire fires. Never get that 10 minutes of my life back, but it's slow at work so...

How many paramedics on that rig? Two or three extra allotments right there.

The posts about that incident on the Cycle page are pure trolling, but there's some actual info about what happened in a few of the big trade groups.

This is the new way. Go to release, fake heart attack, paramedics show up: "Oh I'm fine. But since you're here......"

Not sure if this was mentioned before but the Crooked Stave cans are going for $10 per 4pk. That's a pretty solid price, would bang all day. I remember the first time I saw the bottles they were $12+ each.

This is the best news I've heard all day.
