Why does The Bruery rustle so many jimmies?

[housepants]

I'll need to know what that picture actually shows so I can correct this issue, but if it is just a leaky cap then get out of here with that bs beerservedrare.

 

[Jnorton00]

One of the most vile beers I've ever had.

 

[nanobrew1]

Details?

I am guessing someone didn't know that getting adjunct filled beers put in a growler direct from tap (no CO2 purge) shipped across the country in high heats can be bad for the beer. I would give the Bruery a pass on this.

 

[daniel1]

Yeah, I didn't take it too seriously, either.

True, too many variables, but CO2 doesn't prevent infection in growlers.

I think the point was lack of purging allowed for oxidation to affect the flavor.

yeah I know, just pointing out (as neorunner mentioned) that these beers are not built well shipping nor withstanding any form of harsh conditions. But, a tickers gotta tick.

The twitter picture said infection, which is tremendously different than oxidation. Unless we're assuming that the guy with the growler of **** w/ Coconuts doesn't know the difference, which could be true.

I generally assume incompetence until proven otherwise.

I would not be surprised if the beer started showing infection. When at the BT treatment tournament they stated they like the flavor of raw coconut over toasted. However, raw coconut is crawling with organisms that are just waiting to infect the beer. Hence why there was no Mash & coconut.

My point is lumping the previous infection issues together with a growler that went bad is apples and oranges. Unless the beer is meant to be distributed in growlers (Peg's) I would assume the brewery is thinking the beer is going straight home to a fridge until it is drank relatively soon. Hell, maybe the growler was reused by the person who got the fill and it was not cleaned properly and there was some bacteria growing in it.

Seems like the best way to deal with the Bruery.

Way to dash my hopes. I had dreams man. Big dreams.

Your hopes aren't the only ones that have been dashed. Needed to put an end to that before my inbox blew up.

I'd like to give The Bruery credit where credit is due. Even though I think their beers are an affront to all that is holy, their wax jobs are phenomenal. How do they get them to be so perfectly symmetrical and smooth?

This is true but waxing beer is stoopid! Stop it! Waste of time and money... Drives me nuts

HOW THE **** ARE THEY GONNA CHARGE $40 A BEER IF THEY DONT WAX IT?!?!

 

[Usofar]

Waxing will stop when new bottling line is operating. Bottles will have Firestone type wrap with pull tab.

 

[wyatt1]

where did you hear this?

 

[wyatt1]

this is rustling my jimmies.

Touching your balls this news is.

Do they make hazelnut scented foil? Me no likey this idea.

I have heard the same thing only my understanding is that brand name beers (Black Tuesday, Anniversary etc) will still get wax while some on both side of the wax (currently waxed and currently nonwaxed) will get foil. The new line is coming online this week, so we'll know shortly what to expect.

Wait......which of their non-anniversary, non-BT (and BT variants) beers have wax at this point? Seems that most of their beers do not.

White Chocolate. But nobody cares because WC is gross. And infected.

When you tell the whole story less jimmies are rustled though!

The Bruery's waxing policies is probably the least interesting thread morph I've read here since me and Stu started talkin' grammar.

There are people that don't like wax?

Chocolate Rain
Grey Monday
White Chocolate
Melange Series

Less than I thought so I must be missing something

Also Blue BBLS and Befuddlement.

Dem blue balls....

WE GET THE JOKE...


...right guys?

 

[wyatt1]

i have been calling it blue barrels like a dope i guess.

 

[wyatt1]

I assume the inside of the barrels turned blue from the berries. Hence the name.

Since Stu and I started discussing grammar. (Though "talking" is colloquially used for discussion, it does actually refer to oral exchange.)

(And technically, this has devolved into a discussion of usage and not grammar.)

 

[stupac2]

oral exchange

2 grammar nerds 1 cup?

Prescriptivists are the worst. I had a prof who would consistently grade down for using split infinitives. Like anyone actually gives a ****.

That's one of the Economists big style peeves, and I've seen it make a sentence completely unreadable. It's so ****ing dumb.

I'm a grammar descriptive (mostly), but I'm more is a usage prescriptivist. Word have definitions for a reason.
