Ok. Time out.

(Taking off my d-bag hat and putting on my honest hat)

Before you go jerking each other off too much over beating the sour we did (which... The U1 probably should have anyway), I think you should be reminded that the ******* you brew with from time to time took a ****in' 750 of the sour, popped the effin cork on it, poured it into a 12 oz bottle and then re-capped it. SHOCKINGLY one of the score sheet comments was, "beer is flat and carbonation would have helped this beer a lot". Gee. Ya ****in' think?? He then took the beer, which had an OG of 1100 and an FG of 1024 an entered as straight Flanders Red... which... has a highest OG in the guidelines of 1052. Not even remotely effin close.

So... YES... U1 still probably should have won an congrats. Its a really nice beer. But, "ooooo. The judges didn't think so" is a huge pile of bull$&@#. U1 still probably would have done better but the sour would have made a much stronger showing if Einstein hadnt completely ****ed the entry up.

Wow is it just me or was that a whiny baby that wrote the above post? It was one step up from "Sticks and stones will break my bones but names will never hurt me"

I've got to say, I've had U1... how friggin' good must those other two beers have been to beat it?

It probably got points taken off because Paul entered it in the effin" Belguan Wit category or something.

"whaaaaat? They both have really low hop bitterness!"

 

[paulthenurse]

They dinged me for it being too dark. Belgian Wits aren't supposed to be dark brown?

 

[Cape Brewing]

So Flounder... Is Paul making you use hand lotion?

... or are you just spitting on your palms?

 

[paulthenurse]

Is a grilled cheese sammich still a grilled cheese sammich with gluten free bread?

 

[Cape Brewing]

... for you it is

 

[paulthenurse]

The best part is that I know that this is just freakin' KILLING you

Keep up the brave front, lad.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Why would it be "freakin KILLING" me? Its a great beer. I've told you, and a lot of other people right in front of you, that it is a great beer.

So now that it did well in a comp I'm supposed to be dying in some way??? Why?

 

[paulthenurse]

Cuz.

 

[DakotaRules]

Can't wait for Saturday to cement my share of 10 gallons!

 

[Cape Brewing]

Hey Flounder.... Gravity???

 

[yeager1977]

Someday when I am in the state of Massachusetts I'll let everyone know the gravity.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Ridiculous. Seriously.... You're SWMBO can't read a freakin number!?!

 

[yeager1977]

Not from Florida she can't.......

 

[Cape Brewing]

Jebus!!! Could you come up with a few more excuses!?!?

 

[Hippie]

Cape, just go break into his house already, then you can shout it from the rooftops.

 

[Cape Brewing]

YOU should

 

[DakotaRules]

Anyone get a gravity reading yet?

 

[PaulTheOriginal]

I told Yeager yesterday he better get his excuses in order about the gravity reading as PTN was probably going to come knocking any day. Wrong about PTN, right about someone asking. I will offer no excuses, reasoning or validation of Yeager's efforts in this adventure; he will have to speak for himself.

 

[DakotaRules]

I'm just interested in a gravity reading, not an excuse.

 

[the_bird]

Did you acquire a share of this beer when I wasn't watching? Something larger than my three-bottles-for-a-tank-of-propane?

 

[DakotaRules]

Nope, I just want to see progress.

 

[Cape Brewing]

I would argue that anyone who has ever had the pleasure of logging into HBT and seen Paul brag... Or go as far as tell someone that their attemp to mirror Paul's ability would be "like trying to paint the Sistine Chapel with crayons" has the right to ask Paul, effin HOURLY, where he expertise currently has this beer.

 

[DakotaRules]

Wow, I just want to know how this beer is doing, not take a flaming from you two. Do you guys not want to hear any progress of YOUR beer. I have no share in this, stake, or property. I am asking simply for curiosity. You can flame me on the other thread! JJJEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!

 

[Cape Brewing]

Uuuh... I think i was just defending you.
