Stone is under the impression they will be pouring a Double Barrel Speedway cask at their anniversary party next weekend. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

if the cask comes from two barrels, does that count as double barrel?

I'm going to the cellar to get my bottle of Rumskull after work to return to AleSmith. Are you going to be there tonight sdreaper ?

I likely will, but it will be late. I gotta swing by Pure to grab the member early-sale cans for my arizona buddy, so will probably be there before that and then might hit up Amplified for a pint really quick too.

Is there a thread for the anniversary party? My wife and I are going...I think tenth straight year. Very excited!

How is that membership working out for ya? What all comes with it? Looking to possibly add one next year in addition to Mikkeller/Viking. Likely will be League/MT if possible but if not, considering any others out there.

I honestly have no idea. I am just proxy for the member out in AZ. The early purchases make it super easy for me to casually go over and get the cans. Works out pretty well too. He lets me know, typically in advance but this time only 1 day, PPd me cash, then I cruise on over and buy them after work.

I like that I can purchase any extras up to the member limit though. Allows me to grab cans for myself and other friends.

**** show on saturday may still occur.

Oh man, 2010 and 11 Decadence...

I remember no one would buy the 2011 BA Decadence during the cellar sale they had back in 2013 (it was a weird time when they put one of 4 options on sale each day, which were BASS, BA Kopi, regular Kopi, and the Decadence I believe).

 

[sdreaper]

Am at amplified, sad that Sebo isn't behind the bar

 

[rcubed1]

I just exchanged my Rumskull for 2016 BA Olde Ale. I'll take it!

 

[rcubed1]

I'm not heading over there then.

Holy **** the Sublime Mexican Lager tastes like a liquid corn tortilla.

Yeah, because it was terrible. Did something change in the last three or so years to make it somehow awesome?

 

[arren]

Alpine is releasing another batch of BA Token...but they've renamed it Liquid Sovereignty because it's a royal beer or some ********.

...not because, yknow, all the issues associated with BA Token.

Wait, 11? The maple one? It's delicious. I wasn't a fan of the base beer, but BA was great

I remember swearing off of it when it was first released because the smoke was overpowering. I legit thought it was infected the first few times trying it.

 

[arren]

Also does 1pp mean 1 bottle all together from that list, or 1 of each?

You mean with all the stupid customers that were storing it wrong?

I may still have a bottle or two. So much butter

Yeah, it was probably because you put it right next to your Chex Moneuix. Infection by osmosis.

That sounds disgusting.

Butter is long gone, more like Tart of Darkness now.

 

[rcubed1]

I loved 2011 Decadence but then again I like smoke beers.

1 bottle. Your choice of what is there, but only 1 bottle

More of a flour guy? I get it.

I thought the Sublime was tasty.

Like Tecate^2

Hopefully new money won't know the lowkey greatness that is BA 2010 Decadence

 

[riko1]

Oh man, 2010 and 11 Decadence...

No 2007 Decadence, no care.
