Random Beer Thoughts

[Jnorton00]

Well yeah but you also **** on Trillium and Hill Farmstead so I don't take your opinion seriously .

I **** on Trillium because they do put out some seriously **** beers at times and I make fun of of HF because of Shaun being a clown. HF beers are excellent and the only "bad" thing I've said is all his saisons pretty much taste identical to me and I'm not a big fan of some of his stouts.

I don't disagree but that's the same thing I said about Night Shift.

I wonder if there are any flight attendants on this website. Would love to see a flight attendant AMA here.

Also I need to find a flight attendant that flies the Portland to Kona route. Would be a great mule.

A lot of airlines and also amtrack have company policies that prohibit the transportation of alcohol during work travel.

I know a pilot who is a big beer geek and everywhere he travels he picks a ton of stuff up. For himself.

Seems like a sound policy. I'm sure the Trump administration will change it.

Oops wrong thread.

Hater. Whirlpool is ******* great.

I've received that beer a few times from you and others, and it took a few tries to get into it for some reason but once it clicked, it was pretty damn good.

Fresh Founders Double Trouble. I’ll take the Pepsi challenge against any of your hazebro IPA tall cans.

Fite me.

It's like tasty hoppy water.

I’ll have to revisit Double Trouble. Didn’t they take a year or two off from brewing it? I always enjoyed that beer a lot.

Maybe? But this was definitely the first fresh bottles I remember seeing in a couple years.

Found a clown shoes brandy barrel barleywine. I left it in the freezer overnight but it didn't explode, I imagine because it's 14 percent or something. Going to try it tonight and hope it's like Leon.

It won't be.

Billionaire? I mean, almost nothing is as good as Leon but Billionaire is a damn fine beer...

Not sure if this has been addressed on any of the forums on here (just posted in Boston Area thread), but here is the Go Fund Me page for the electrician who was injured in the accident at Trillium earlier this week. Amazing how quickly the beer industry can swoop in and help out someone in need.

Ballad of Minnie Quay, brandy barrel edition. Looks like it's an old ale, not a barleywine.

Do people still mispronounce/misspell Cantillon? Or has it become so ubiquitous in lambic/sour ale discussion that it's understood how to say and spell it.

ISO: Cantiloons. Cantilions? ...Cantalon?

I hear people mispronounce it (Cantillion) all the time but don't see misspellings.

Yeah but have you heard of Dry Fontein aka Dree Fontain? I think it means dry fountain, the first pronunication being Dutch and the second being old French.

To me, there is a fine line between pronouncing a foreign word almost correctly and sounding like Giada describing a recipe.

"Next, I'm going to add roughly two or three tablespoons of MAS-CAR-PONE-AY!!! cheese, which will compliment the fresh MOTZ-A-(sort of rolled R)-ELLA!!! in the dish"

That's how my buddy sounds when he says he is going to "bring a bottle of Lambic, maybe a CAWNT-E-YONE!!!"

You’ve met dvelcich, master of inventing his own pronunciations for beer.

Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got something to trade
But nothing ships out when you win the LIF, just a bunch of gibberish
And motherfuckers act like they forgot about Drie

I do know what you mean, but you can say "CANT-ee-on" without sounding like a weirdo throwing on affectations.

It's encouraging to hear that Cantiloon is a relic of Beer Internet past.

RIP Loons

Every time Dunt sees me he asks when the next one will be. I don't have the heart to tell him the truth.
