Random Beer Thoughts

[boogercrack]

Try trusteeing expensive bottles. Illinois could recoup a lot of money if they could capitalize on these lost taxes.

My state hs figured out how to generate neat new earthquakes from fracking, but not income from oil or drugs and we have a long history of corruption and nepotism. We are ******.

and tax evasion, right?

Saw HF released BA Dorothy last week. Gave serious thought to trying to trade for one since I really enjoyed Sue, am a big fan of regular Dorothy, and my grandmother's name is Dorothy. Checked the boards a couple places and saw folks throwing St Lam at it. Stopped thinking about trying to trade for it.

Maybe I can get in on some bulk Clara/Florence/Arthur instead for about the same price.

What in the hell.

What in the hell.

You beat me to it, but what the hell is going on there?

Is that clip art?

 

[RyanG1]

this label tho

Geocities label.

Needs more Blingee.

 

[Saind]

What concerns me more than the label is the beer. Sour watermelon witbier? Wit ain't sour

I do love the video, but yea that art is ....well odd.

Plenty of sour witbiers out there. Maybe not to style but that doesn't stop Brewers. Avery's Passionfruit is slightly tart.

Well into my adult life, I was one of those people who made mixtapes for people- including potential love interests, in a misguided attempt to show how ******* awesome I would be to date. And I would go the whole nine: track listings, witty title, and yes, album art.

This label from a supposed professional brewery would be an embarrassment to 17 year old me. The target of my affection would definitely not want to make out with me if I provided this ******* garbage in a tape case.

Label artist apparently worked on some well-known animated series, though...

I don't care whose style I'm cramping, Great Notion Brewing out of Portland is the best new brewery I've tried in a long time. Juicy IPA's, adjunct Berliners and stouts but executed so much better than almost all of the crap I have had lately. Every one of the 7 beers I tried was a 4+/5.

One of the servers, Chris, is a transplanted FIB and a riot.

Yeah say what you want about the label, Wakefield, etc. but the beer itself sounds awesome, and using a witbier as the base for a fruited sour isn't anything new.

Beret from the Bruery is a sour witbier with raspberries, if I recall correctly.

Sounds better than normal wit tbh but I think you'd get deported if you tried something like that over here

Blueberry Muffin is like liquid Jiffy mix muffins. That's some dark magick.

Yep. Started out as Bottleworks XII before rebranding.

Someone should make an app that combines Untappd and Pokemon Go. Some sort of beer hunter/ticker/hoarder **** where you get points for showing up to releases, locations, etc.

That sounds like just Untappd. Where does the Pokemon part come in?

 

[FoudreGuy]

Lots of people were playing Go in line at Fremont on Saturday.

I was too old when it first came out in the 90s so it's one of those things I've just never understood.

I am hearing about this Pokeman for the first time today. I have no idea what it is, nor to I care enough to find out.

Around these parts there's a brewery that makes lot of weird beers (but isn't named Shorts or Odd Sides, so nobody outside of MI knows about them), that does a "Sour Apple Candied Wit." No idea if it is any good, as I haven't opened my bottle.

Just in case you wanted to get laid less.

Just in case you wanted to get laid less.

But less than zero is...?

Is it me laying others? That doesn't sound right either.

It does. That's why a meadery in Ohio is already doing it.

BTW what type of mead did you use for that mead watermelon dealio? Was thinking about trying the same thing at some point this summer. Actually that would be a great one to do when you guys visit.
