Random Beer Thoughts

[trickytunadicky]

Is there a such thing as a female equivalent of a shitlord in the beer scene and if so would they be shitlady?

Queen Shitlord of Mead Mountain says gender neutral.

Whenever I think I've found the craziest / dumbest **** in the beer world (The Answer and Joose Crowlers, putting Gatorade and Kool Aide powder in beers ala Wakefield and Cycle, anything that Omnipollo does), I find out that breweries are really putting popsicles in beers?

You never ordered a mead popsicile from MisBeehavin? It’s a popsicile turned upside down into a glass of mead.

It's one thing to turn your fermented beverage into a Popsicle / Slushy / what have you, it's another thing entirely (in this curmudgeons opinion) to use artificial colors, flavors and sugar dissolved in water to accentuate your beer.

And yes I have and it was delicious

"Another chapter in the story of Green Flash Brewing’s distressed financial situation was written today as the San Diego-based company announced plans to close its Cellar 3 barrel-aging facility and taproom in Poway, California."

Am I the only one that thought all the beer that came out of that facility sucked anyways?

They somehow figured a way to make Silva Stout a bad beer.

They're an investor call away from selling Alpine to Goose ******* Island.

I’m guessing that they’ll release a hazy, lactose injected, fruited IPA within a month. That’s what all the breweries are doing now when they want to make a quick buck.

This may be a actual issue thing going forward. If you have the time I urge you to express your concern to the EPA who is currently reviewing the registration of this and other herbicides.

you think the current EPA is going to give a **** about any of this?

There's no such thing as the EPA, don't be ridiculous.

Perennial did Maman slushies at its most recent release. It was spectacular.

Any updates on firing of your maid?

Or is she harboring a secret love child somewhere?

Or is he an undercover shitlord who destroyed that glass to influence the #properglassware value of that?

Spoiler, its my wife. Too much paperwork to fire her so shes still around.

So I got invited to a trade group and made a post looking for an FAQ on collusion to increase secondary values. Banned... probably the fastest I've ever been banned. Now how am I going to build my case for PA law enforcement?

Similar to lambic, is IPA bar mitzvah, quinceanera, wedding, anniversary, birthday a thing too?

If you have no shame, yes. Yes it is.

And speaking of trying to find weird and new ways to get sympathy beer, to the dude who is "haunted" by missing out on HoG because your pregnant wife had to go to the hospital (and then had to let everyone know it was "just a false alarm") forcing you to leave the line, you need to find a new hobby.

Maybe I need a new hobby.

So let’s see what Omnipollo are up to these days.....

Was able to jump behind the bar last night to check out the Cigar City kegs and found that Jai Alai has now switched to being brewed in Austin at the Oskar Blues facility.... the keg of Guayabara was from the Tampa facility.

Not sure if they're just planning on making Jai Alai locally or what.

That jives with what I had heard about east coast Jai Alai, which is that it is being made at the NC Oskar Blues facility.

Their Austin facility is ******* massive so I'm still trying to figure out what all they're gonna do with that space. It's twice the size of the Colorado brewery inside.

I joke that it's the future local Budweiser brewery.
