News coming out of Manchester in the past hour or so that the police were called to Cloudwater‘s Festival today because the space where they‘re holding the event has no liquor license, and they need to move the entire event overnight to a new space or risk jail time. They‘re appealing for a new event space overnight:

That is ******* ridiculous.
 
I'm not sure how it is there, but in montana you can "rent" a bar and their servers for the night. As long as the bar is operating within i I think 60 miles of the physical location of the license, you can use it of premise.
My wife's license is physically at a restaurant in a town of like 200 people and isnt even operating, but uses the license for the venue in Billings.
 
And yet it's the pasttrboi community that has it, apparently.

How do you overlook something like making sure a liquor license is secured before you hold a beer festival? Somebody is dumb as ****.
 
I brought a gigantic bottle of this to a share yesterday as a goof (found outside our distro)....

We all agreed.... it's fantastic.

Probably the best "National Beer of..."/Budweiser equivalent type beer I've had. It drank like a really good helles.

... ... ... it's possible we were very drunk that that point though...

It's really great compared to other Latin macros. I'd compare it more to a Czech pilsner than a Helles though, it has a ton of Saaz (and Mittelfruh I believe). I drink it a lot.

Funny enough, it's one of the worst rated beers on BA. I think a lot of people don't try it fresh enough.
 
I have a theory that astringent flavors in IPAs will go away if you fluctuate the temperature of the bottles from cold to room temp to cold again.

I was at Parish Brewing on Friday and picked up a couple packs of their pale ale Envie that were bottled earlier that day and a few packs of their DIPA Ghost in the Machine that were bottled 2-26. I opened a few of each that night and they had this astringency that wasn’t overwhelming but definitely there. Today those bottles are back in the fridge after spending all of yesterday until 4pm today and there is no off flavor at all. Either it’s crazy bottle variation which is unlikely from bottles that were bottled and sold at the brewery, or I have cracked the astringent code.

Thanks for reading!
