What are you drinking now?

[Ridire]

Both of my deductions were unplanned, but that's how I roll. Best get out the bag of frozen peas haha. They said on the radio yesterday that this time of year is when the most guys get it done. Apparently that way they can just hang out and watch basketball all day. Not a bad plan if you're into that sort of thing.

Point of clarification: you guys are talking about exemptions, not deductions.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

I knew that was coming as soon as I hit send. Considered editing it but said floc it.

While I'm on a roll sharing personal info, I went through the food stamp process when I was a kid. My dad's business failed shortly after my brothers (twins, one with severe medical issues) were born. My dad ended up taking a couple jobs and working 16 hr days for a while to get us back off the program.

So I view it as something that is VERY help for those with bad luck in a time of need, but im proud of my old man for working his way out of it instead of just getting used to it.

OK, exemption and potentially credits.


Drinking water with lunch.

Remmy, if you are at home, drinking beer and watching first round NCAA games, then I ****ing hate you...

Let's go Huskies. Northeastern, that is.

You guys are again a bad influence on me. I went into the local place that has Hopslam every year, thinking maybe they had some KBS. They got one case in, and it is already gone. But I felt bad leaving empty handed, so I bought me a bag of Swedish Fish and ate the whole damn thing. #fatasscrossing

Well that story took a turn that I did not expect.

I've grown too cynical... these days I don't even bother with anything that isn't widely distributed in my area.

If I lived near CCB I'd say the same thing.

Water with lunch, beer to follow after a trip to the gym

Me either. But I just thought I'd stop in and see. I will not drive or wait in line for it, but the place is across the street from the CPA firm where I was picking stuff up, so thought I'd ask if they had any lying around. Last time I did that, they told me they'd have Hopslam in the morning...

EDIT: and it really isn't my favorite beer, but thought it would be nice to include something as hard to find in a trade package.

Weyerbacher Sunday Morning Stout. If this is in your distro footprint, find it. Probably the best bottle from them Ive had to date (I am sort of partial to the BA Coffee stouts, though)

But... But.... But... the infographic says it is not going to be relased until next month.

Thats what I get for listening to the people who make it.

Don't know why the chart reads like that. I know people who already have it and my buddy at the beer store says he was allotted one case, and it is gone...

It's interesting they call it an "Availability Calendar" rather than a release schedule. Maybe that has something to do with it?

<sniffle> I was hoping to maybe get a few bottles this year to try. Oh well. Maybe next year.

I think it goes out in Michigan early and everywhere else at the beginning of April.

I am not in Weyerbacher's distro footprint.

"KBS will be available throughout Michigan beginning on Monday, March 16, and throughout the rest of our footprint beginning on Monday, March 30."

They released in Michigan only on either the 13th or 14th. The rest of the distro area is embargoed until March 30th (in many cases they already have the beer at the distributor, though). My favorite bar is planning a release party at just after midnight on the 30th with flights of 2014 and 2015 and a couple other things.

Water.

What's with all the basketball talk? Wasn't March madness last year? Surely something so lame isn't a yearly thing, right?
