Tyrsis What ratios do you use for your Mai Tai and is your sugar raw or regular in your simple syrup?

I bought a basic butthole speedway stout 750ml at Costco today for $8.99... ha! ... and also realize my life choices on still buying $30 BA Stouts... let’s just say I’m an idiot...

Only one of these is what I'd consider expensive for a thermometer.

I have the iGrill 2 (now made by Weber). The app used to be fantastic then they decided to rebrand and unengineer the whole thing. There have been several updates that brought back needed functions, like setting a temperature range (yes they actually removed that!). Anyway, it's back to about 75% of what it was, but works well enough for making meats. #TalkMeat

Hot take: 3F OG is better than Cantillon and it isn't even close

I don't think that has ever been a question. 3F has gueze down but cantillon does better with fruit. Either of them begin opened makes you a winner though.

#BiL

This is the biggest poser meme in the beer world right now. If barleywine was life you guys wouldn't let a keg of 2010 Alaskan Barleywine, the Tom Brady aka G.O.A.T barleywine, sit on tap at Toro for over 2 weeks. With most of that time priced at $5 a pour. And that's not the first rare barleywine I've seen get the Toro bargain bin pricing. Y'all some lying ass ******* and/or dontdrinkbeer kiss ass fanbois, in my imo. I can picture some poor brewers going all in on #BiL and then when they have to close up shop they're all "But they said barleywine is life."

Agreed, it was delicious.... made sure plenty of other people were aware of it too

HopNinja was also top tier, good to see that beer again...
