Great easy drinking /cheap hoppy beer. I haven't bough it in a long long time though because they refuse to use a normal dating system and I'm too lazy/dumb to try and decipher the cans for age every time I want it.

Yeah I was looking at importing Lagunitas here and that Julian date code is ******* annoying. It's not hard to get used to, just annoying.

I'm not sure this is the most ridiculous part of it, thanks to:


Let's start with your assumption that he's spending ~$45,600 on beer a year. It looks like Treehouse's cans are pretty cheap, but let's say they're $5 each. Let's also say that every time he goes there (which is apparently every day) he spends $14 on two $7 pints (I couldn't find prices so just guessed). So that's $5,110 on drafts, and ~8,100 cans. Let's say he sells/gives away 3/4 of them but drinks 1/4, that's 2,000 beers or 5.5/day. IIRC Treehouse cans are pints so he's at 7.5 pints/day of beer (which is obviously well into alcoholic territory), but let's be generous and say it's all regular IPA (no doubles or higher ABV stuff, but also no lower stuff). Based on OG/FG notes I found for homebrew clones of Julius a pint has ~300 calories, and our buddy is having 7.5/day or a whopping 2250 just from beer.

So, yeah, our hypothetical Treehouse homie would be his own household.

How does 5.5 pint cans of beer turn into 7.5 pints/day? Do you mean 12oz servings per day?

Tree House is the comedic relief I need from my hard life of strolling into Trillium, buying better beers and then hitting the corner store on my ride home for some $5 Bitburger four packs.

I'm just glad there are a handful of places where these idiots congregate. Makes them easy to avoid .

What a shame that the mediocre hoppy lager Punk in Drublic will no longer be made.

Well, the reason behind it is certainly shameful.

Yeah, super gross. Can't say I've ever been a fan in the first place though.

I’m a pretty big NOFX fan, and am highly disappointed and disgusted with what they said.

Look at Stone, being high and mighty just a few short months after making consent jokes.

It's not so much what they should have done here, as that they have had an image problem for a while and they are just now noticing and trying to hit the erase button as fast as they can.

I can see that. I guess part of me naively thinks they're doing it because it's the right thing to do.

I don't know what the big deal is with drinking fresh IPAs... this Homestyle I'm currently drinking is soooo much better than when I had it fresh (5 days old). The oniony/vegetal flavor completely disappeared.

Tell people the beer is going to be bad in 2 weeks.

They drink it.

They come back to buy more beer.

When I first saw this however long ago I got a chuckle out of it and thought...give em hell and good luck with that.

But the more I read this today, the more it seems like a troll job and anyone who actually confuses them is an idiot.

And Stones only real grips is it's a "bland, pale beer" So ******* what Koch, then don't drink it. I hate him and for once, hope big beer wins.

I'm not reading a bunch of Tweets on a copy write argument. What does that have to do with making fun of consent?
