Well I hope that idiot is one of the three dead

He is. This was also posted earlier on in the day. Same car...likely same individual: https://fox5sandiego.com/2018/08/23/speeding-sports-car-crashes-through-elementary-school-gate/

Wtf is a CS:GO skins expert? Is that a type of occupation that makes an 18yo rich enough to buy a Maclaren ?

Or would most of his money come from YouTube “fame”?

Step 1: Gain a following of young kids playing CS:GO
Step 2: Promote an in-game item gambling website to your followers and claim it's not a scam
Step 3: It is a scam and get kickbacks from the website for sending so much business. Smarter people are anonymously running the website themselves.

The festival of dankness is so good. The best of the mt fests. The food trucks got a little backed up but there wasnt as many annoying lines and there was so much good stuff.

Fish cans this weekend? I'm so down.

That bagby price is pretty insane. At least for the same price at Beachwood you get more beer and food included.

in 2013 at Stone, you got less beer, but it was $35 ****** bucks.
I don't remember what it was at Toro, but at least you got to buy bottles.

Unticketed, $10 pours in those little 6oz wine glasses, if I remember correctly.

At Toro you paid per pour, I believe - but 750's of Cantillon were $30. That was good ******* times.

But yeah, not sure I can justify that. $70, maybe - but $10 in fees and taxes really ***** that up big time. Just gonna sit at home that day and drink Boon Black Label that morning.

I wonder why that experience seems to cost 10+ dollars more each year.

Well, you have a monopoly on the event, so why the **** not?
Yeah I'll pass. I'll drink a loon at home, thanks

I have hoarded a silly amount of lambic but I can't stop chasing it. I'll be riding the f5 for Zwanze tix -- and am totally down for a lambic share on a different day.

 

[rcubed1]

Supply and command at it's finest.

I think 2015 or 2016 might have been the last time I went. They have definitely been pricing me out. That being said, I miss going to Bagby. Love that spot.

I don't know if it's making its way to all their tap rooms but I got word my Pilsner collab with Belching Beaver, Ned Hall, is back on draft and hopefully dialed in enough to medal at GABF this year. It's made it to the final table the last the couple of years.

 

[smithj21541]

Thanks Tyrsis for the Twitter fun this afternoon. Baggy doesn't need to explain or justify their pricing, they are a business. That said they don't need to get so out of shape when a consumer attempts to point out that they may be on the pricey side for some people. I know I shouldn't "be poor" but they priced me out of trying to get tickets.

Great news rcubed that beer is really killer, I can't wait to try this batch.

Monkey Paw closed.
I hope the employees are taken care of.

Dammit, I was just telling Mrs. Riko we need to go for cheesesteaks before it's too late.

 

[SerenityNow]

I could care less about Bagby event being expensive. There’s tons of beer event sales and bottle releases that are not worth doing. Hard pass on them enough times, you won’t even be bothered by it anymore. Or at least it doesn’t bother me.

Regarding the car accident, I’m pretty horrified there are so many fatal accidents so close to where I live. I think there’s been like 4 fatal accidents in the past few months close to me. People in San Diego need to stop driving like maniacs.

Sad news. Any article on this? What happened? (Pretty out of the loop)

Does this have anything to do with the Coronado buyout and subsequent legal shitshow?

Wow, this sounds like they chose SouthNorte over Monkey Paw. That's pretty crazy.

 

[Tyrsis]

And why wouldnt you? SouthNorte has such beers as...

Uhh

Hmm

Well I'm sure they have WBC and GABF medals right? No?

Huh

FTFY

 

[Phischy1]

From what I read, the McLaren driver was an 18yr old gamer/YouTuber/gambler who "lost" his income stream and was suicidal. Unfortunately he killed 2 innocent people. **** that guy.

At for the Paw, that sucks. It was the easier bar to get to quickly from my house, drop down 70th to 94 and boom...much easier to get to than anything on 30th. I wasn't there for the decline under Coronado so I have nothing but good memories. I didn't go on my last trip because I heard it wasn't the same.

Sounds like this bit was more important than how good the beer was:

But Coronado and Blair, who was under contract to the new owners, clashed over everything from beer recipes to marketing strategy.

 

[rcubed1]

Yeah he sold it to the wrong to people. I only went a few times but it was definitely a great spot if you find a parking spot.
