Random Beer Thoughts

[FoudreGuy]

I've never seen pink lemonade blueberries in my life.

I've got a couple plants in my yard. They don't yield a ton of fruit compared to the regular ones, though.

I actually just planted some in my back yard. My wife is absurdly excited about them.

Must be a Cali thing. We in NY. No such thing here.

Can someone explain to me why JulianB is including the seemingly innocuous "Hazy IPA" from Ballast Point with those other 2 abominations?

I'm in Seattle. You can probably get them at a nursery. The berries themselves really don't taste any different.

I'm surprised that no one has made a beer with Pineapple Strawberries. My parents have a couple plants in their backyard, they're white, a bit softer than regular strawberries and do taste a bit like pineapple.

I am allergic to bromelaise (enzyme in raw pineapple)... wood bang.

Not beer, but you get the idea. This stuff is awesome, too.

"hundreds of pounds of cotton candy grape juice"

 

[BadJustin]

cotton candy grapes are gross. Sickly sweet, nasty ass things.

I agree - they're somehow stickier than actual cotton candy.

Fun fact. These are actually an heirloom grape flavor that was purposely bred OUT as being a bad flavor.

Did you get this fun fact from the Incorrect Fun Fact of the Day calendar?
While there are heirloom grapes that taste similar, like Muscat, these particular grapes are 100% hybrid and nothing close to being heirloom.

I seriously just repeated it. Lol.

I guess the info is that cotton candy like flavors were originally bred out on purpose, these do the opposite.

I wouldn't even go that far.

Vanilla spiced? Does that mean it's like a chai tea or something?

 

[iamjeff6]

I wonder if they actually weighed the juice used or treated it like water (8.35 lbs/gal, but then how to account for the residual sugars?).
seriously though, who the **** uses weight for volume measurements?

It's like you're surprised even given the cockamamie ******** concept of a beer that they'd use the wrong units of measure for a raw material.

Regular TG Assassin this year is $50 a bottle for a 22oz. I wonder if these will be $50 for 12.7oz.

Oh who I am kidding, $100 for sure.

I am so not excited about them bringing this ******** to Seattle.

I'd give them hella props though if they went the ultimate trolling route and made these bottles on-site only.
