Random Beer Thoughts

If you have a rather large beard, short hair on the sides and long hair on the top you're probably more of a Bro than a Hipster. Or have Bros taken the hipster look?

Why do you have a year and a half old instagram post of this dude on hand?

I thought the only thing that triggered you was the devaluation of likes.

I get the impression that "hipster" has become internet slang for "that guy with that thing that I don't like."

Basically means anything new a baby boomer doesn't understand. Just like entitled is Boomer for a person under 50 complaining about anything.

Hey don't **** in my yard. YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO A **** FREE YARD. THE WORLD OWES YOU NOTHING.

One thing that annoys me (and probably only me) about these grand proclamations on beer culture based around the BA Top Beers list is that it's not an apples-to-apples comparison. They've ****** around with the formula for it multiple times (especially in terms of inputs: hads don't count oh wait now they do actually not anymore oh people are mad lets bring them back etc.), and it's not the same people rating beer over the whole time period either. Then there's inconsistencies in terms of what counts as retired, which beers get listed based on release year/vintage/etc and which don't, and so on. I guess it's a useful snapshot of what the site's user base is drinking (and rating highly) at some given point in time, but I don't really see it as some great time series instrument for studying the US beer scene like it's often presented to be.

also like 90% of the people who rate beer are a half step above clueless. so there's that

Do the kids these days still use "fresh?" That was my go-to descriptor back in like '92. "These new Seattle bands are pretty fresh" and "Chris Farley's skit on SNL was straight fresh" and "She was on the pegs of my bike and reached around to give me an OTPHJ. That **** was fresh!" and so forth.

Keep in mind that 9/25 of the top BA beers are treehouse, 8 of which are IPA's, so that list is about as useful as tits on a fish.

Not really in that context.

Whenever I hear the buzz descriptor words for IPAs (juicy, haze, murk, cloudy, etc) I immediately think of Three 6 Mafia. This mentality has been going on for about 2 years now and I don't think it's ever gonna change.

I have a friend who crashed into a mailbox while getting roadhead.

My students all use the word "lit."

"Yo, that band is lit!" "That party was lit!" but also "She was lit at that party!"

Kind of relevant:

AMERICAN LAMBIC WINS AGAIN

http://punchdrink.com/articles/the-year-european-beer-died-beeradvocate-top-beers/

I'm pretty sure peeps still get excited to drink Westy. Also

"No one would beg a Europe-bound buddy to bring back Belgian beers—unless they were limited lambics like Cantillon"
