I don't love the chair thing at Tired Hands, but someone should probably stop letting Al from Pizzaboy use social media. He always manages to come off like one of the biggest jerks around.


This chair thing is as close to a practical use for a flamethrower as I have imagined.

I am a dumb mother ******.

But hey, at least I'm not in Iowa.

You're going to literally die.

So are you. Me too. Everyone is. It's the only thing you can count on people to do.
 
About the chair thing: I can understand from Tired Hands' perspective why they'd want people to go inside and drink while they wait. They're a business and that's money in their bank account that they might not otherwise be getting. But if so, why not just use a system with tickets or cards or some other physical "spot holder", rather than this ridiculous one where there's a mile long row of empty chairs holding spots in line and clogging up the sidewalk?
 
A local brewery does a yearly BA stout in cans. Used to be a quiet release. Still gets distro.

dontdrinkbeer reviewed the beer favorably this past year

Today, the chair thing is happening at a brewery for a beer that's receiving distro.

I hate beer

Please tell me this isn't for what I think it is.

Waiting in line for beer that hits distro is an NC neckbeard staple.

Along with truck-chasing Hopslam and KBS.
 
Deep river collaboration w/o representation (and their new canned BA barleywine)

Yep, I guessed right, le sigh.

Is that beer good? I haven't been impressed with anything I've had from Deep River and pretty much never bother with their cans off the shelf as a result. Certainly not to the point where I'd park a chair outside for them.

This.

You get to odd13. They hands out tickets that guarantee you purchase until 4pm that day. Do what you want the rest.
 
My current goal is to sell about half my stash (at cost to my local friends) really quickly and drink about half of the rest over the year, without replacing it all. This is partly do to wanting to drink it down and partly due to having downsized to a studio apartment and wanting beer to take up less space.

Aside from bottles associated to festival tickets, I don't think I've bought anything in 2017 but one Sierra Nevada 6-pack.

buys mega snifter --> downsizes to studio apartment ---> sells off beer.

Julian, please don't spiral out. Those mega snifters are bad news!

1 and 2 are in the wrong order. ;)

I could actually probably fit all my beer just fine if I'd sort through and organize my climbing gear. Selling off beer seems like a much much much easier task than that.
