The San Diego area thread

I don't think you need to use deception to convince people not to trek out to Alpine these days.

Cool.

 

[evilc]

She gewd. 180 cases. BONG.

 

[SanDiegoJoe2011]

In seriousness though, if I still lived downtown I would've gone today. However, I do not want to deal with traffic getting back to Carlsbad.

 

[arren]

Word, will stop by tomorrow

Bad Boy label is the new style, no mo' GS Dog. Bottle says brewed and bottled in Alpine, CA - not San Diego. Was the normal 9% DIPA that drinks like 6. Wasn't the normal "OMFG" reaction but I am older and deader. Very good, well done beer as always.

 

[souredstouts]

BPT was super slow but was still able to snag some a couple minutes ago.

 

[SerenityNow]

Think I snagged one of the last VIPs.

Even though I set a 15 min in advance reminder, I was working out & forgot anyway. Somewhere around 12, was able to snag a ticket in between sets. First one I'm attending!

 

[reidjoshua1]

30hrs of flying and unfortunately tickets weren't the first thing on my mind when I landed. Just checked and sold out. Let me know if anyone eventually can't make it and I'll buy it off ya. The sun comes up at 5am here.... ****.

Edit: and bad boy/mosaic showers comes out the day after I leave for the desert for a month. fml.

Does the diaper help at beer fests?

Lines are offen too long for the bathroom, so I could see this could becoming a thing

Picked bottles up at Alesmith. 45,000 people there and multiple party buses. Blahhh. Wanted a beer but **** that.

The anniversary beers at MT NP are incredible. JK collab, Wizard Blend, Brandy with Fig / Cocoa, Rye DT with almond / vanilla...

Amazing beers.

The BA Devil's Teeth variants are getting slept on hard because it's not Monster's Park, but holy ****, that almond/vanilla was incredible.

Shame they're so ******* expensive per bottle, or else I'd buy them all up.

 

[evilc]

Case #2. Guy said 23 cases left. Git dat Bad Boy boyz.

Wizard Blend is just so stupidly drinkable, and the brandy barrel with fig / cocoa is like drinking chocolate. Also, the JK collab should be trading like ******* crazy, but no one seems to care. It's basically Atrial.

Yeah, mentioning "raspberries" and "JK" in the same sentence should've made more noise, surprised it didn't. I think no one cares because it never really saw public sale. You Membership ******** bought it all up, and I presume you're all drinking it up.

Thanks to benbikes4beer, I was able to snag two however. Will have to open one soon.

 

[evilc]

Price per bottle?

12. Yes, I agree with your predicted sentiment.


But God damn I love it.

I always have to laugh at people on social media that say MT is the "most overhyped brewery" because they seem to get no hype outside of their fans.

They have plenty of fans, but for whatever reason, they also have some people that hate them to a ridiculous level. The amount of vitriol some of these clowns have towards MT, it's as if MT assaulted one of their loved ones. I get not liking a brewery, but their detractors seem to go out of their way to let it be known.

It's probably the marketing. It rubbed some people in this very thread 'back in the day'.

That and the Trader Joe's fiasco is my guess.

Still does, but they've toned it down an incredible amount. And the quality of their beer has increased making it moot. Winning solves everything.

 

[evilc]

Btw, Alpine gives 0 ***** about what growler you bring now. Last time I filled they covered them up... nothing now. No coverup, they just hang a tag.

$12 per bottle? Or are they 6 packs? I know nothing about this release but do love Bad Boy.
