He was worried that it would taste bad.

Someone's a moron in this situation, and I'm quite confident it's not me.
 
What the **** did you just ******* say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the **** out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my ******* words. You think you can get away with saying that **** to me over the Internet? Think again, ******. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re ******* dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little ****. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your ******* tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you ******* idiot. I will **** fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re ******* dead, kiddo.
 
Know a guy that got a 6 pack of Live Oak Hefe today with a packaged date of 8/22/17. Think that's too old?
Asking for said friend. He has them cooling in the fridge right now and will drink one soon.

Serious question: If this beer was deemed "too old" what would your friend do with it?

Is this like a "it's too old to consume"? "too old to rate properly"? "too old to cook with"?

This reply was no help at all and completely useless.

...and the 2013 join date confuse me
 
Live Oak Hefe is at its best when it's fresh but I have cans about that old in my house I still enjoy drinking. The new brewery has a much better brewhouse and produces a beer that maintains flavor for much longer than the old cave where they used to brew. The old brewhouse made great beer but the drop off over time was pretty sharp. If you were in Austin, Hefe was cum/10 but here in Dallas if the keg wasn't fresh it was noticeably less stellar.
 
Wow, I can't even with this one:

Hazy Or Not — The Future Of IPA Is DDH

Devotees of Other Half’s catalog know what DDH stands for. Those three letters signify a guaranty of freshness, of coniferous flavor and of substantial body. In fact, the letters DDH may represent the next great innovation in pale ales. They stand for Double Dry Hopped, denoting a process that is supercharging hop flavor in some of the world’s most sought after craft beers.

Before delving further, it’s worth discussing what dry hopping does to an ale.

Flavor AF

Brewers add hops early in the boil primarily to impart bitterness. They add them near the end for flavor. When a brewer wants to showcase foresty, tropical, candied hop notes, they toss more into the fermentation tank days after the brew. This process is called dry hopping, and it has existed as long as modern brewing has. Now, beer makers are experimenting with still-later hop introductions. As more hops are added later, the flavors become more vibrant. That’s where the double comes in.

Double dry-hopping exists at the intersection of several movements in craft beer, and the massive popularity of these beers reflects a public desire for the biggest, dankest IPA possible.

Thanks for the info!
 
Today in ******* questions breweries get on social media - asking how bad one of that brewery's core beers is.

"Is Eureka as bad as everyone's saying? Making my first trip to @TreeHouseBrewCo and driving from NJ. Really bummed on the limit for julius"

What the ****? Who's saying that? Eureka is one of my favorites from Treehouse.

We did a blind IPA tasting a few weeks back and of the 15-17 or so, Eureka was in my bottom 3. I like that one even less than I like the rest of their mediocrity.
 
Eureka is my favorite TH beer - specifically Mosaic. It might not get the Hazebro's rocks off, but it's a homerun for people who want a tasty, light, clean beer with hop character that does not kick your ass.

Asking a brewery if something they do 'is as bad as everyone says it is' is as stupid as asking a brewery if something they do 'is as bad as everyone says it is'.

This is exactly why I love it. I could drink Eureka and Baby Genius forever and ever.
