Stopped at Ale Apothecary. Really interesting beers and it's cool they are really enjoy experimenting.


Now at Good Life drinking a Sippy Cup Hazy IPA before heading down to go swimming in the river. Beautiful day in Oregon!

Hoping the case of Dinner I checked makes it home. I found a Portland wine shop with a wine box they were going to throw out. It was a pretty busted up box, so I'm counting on a roll of bubble wrap and a whole roll of tape to keep it safe.

My sister in law just moved to Nashville and lives about 1/2 a mile from southern grist. Anything they should be in a look out for me for when she heads down this way or my wife goes up?

Which location? They have 2 now, both are great but.

Crowlers at the original location, believe maybe just 4-packs at the newer one? From what I recall they started canning a good amount of their stuff in 4-packs.

Love all their berry-based sour beers. The pastry stouts are good but they release so many different named stuff that it can be difficult to keep track.

Loud Whispers is a good one they do from time to time, as well as DDH Noise Pollution. Mixed Greens is their go to IPA that they just rerelease all the time as Roman numeral batches.

You really can't go wrong with Southern Grist!

I Second this question...

It's not so much that one is objectively better than the other. They are both great beers. I got a case of Dinner and no Lunch for two reasons.

One is that I can find a few bottles of Lunch a couple times a month in my local stores. I've never seen Dinner for sale at any store. Lunch was on tap at a number of places in Portland, including my hotel bar, but nobody had Dinner that I saw.

The other is that I happen to prefer DIPA to IPA. It's like how I prefer to drink a Pliny, but I'm not going to be mad about a Blind Pig.

I'm in East Nashville too, about a mile away from Grist and its basically our second home. New beers come out most Saturdays with 4-packs available at both locations. Bottle releases (typically stouts) vary, but are usually every 6-8 weeks at the Nations location.

Let me know when they are looking to pick up beer for you and I can point you in the right direction. Also hit me up if you are ever in town visiting and we can meet up for some beer!

Anyone ever snuck a celebratory beer into the hospital before? Is this cool? Do I have a problem?

I wouldn't say you have to sneak it in, but I have drank a beer on a couple of occasions with the same friend after his wife gave birth. First time was when his twin girls were born, second time was when his son was born. Both times he had a soft side cooler with a few beers in it.

It's not openly allowed, but I haven't seen it to be a big issue.

This was last year during the Clemson game

When's the big day?

Wednesday is the scheduled C section.

I'm going to bring a small cooler and a sleeping bag. I know my wife will harass me. Her bag looks like we are staying for a month.

USED BREWING EQUIPMENT FOR SALE - Bryan/College Station

I've had the brewing equipment below for several years now, but it's been sitting in storage for a while. As I have two young kids and no time on my hands these days (and losing my storage area), I'm looking to sell it off if possible. This was initially set up for a fly sparge style of brewing (when all parts where there), but it can obviously be adjusted. Below is a list and pictures of items I currently have. Most is in good condition, but obviously there would need to be seals/gaskets replaced before using.

Please let me know if you have any interest. Right now I would prefer not to sell it piecemeal, but may end up having to at some point.

I'm in the same place with two little ones and no time to brew. Good luck selling your gear! I'm going to hold on a little longer before parting ways.

Finished the move to Santa Rosa!

Had this beer while in Vegas, was a good double IPA. They have a good IPA too that I've had in the past, so if you need a craft beer fix in Vegas I recommend Joseph James.



Spent some time at Lake Tahoe after that. An amazing summer vacation spot! Visited both South Lake Brewing in south Tahoe and Fifty Fifty, up north in Truckee. My favorite beer of the trip was had during a fairly long hike on the west side of the lake. Had carried a few cans in my backpack for my wife and I, and needless to say I wanted to stop and open them sooner than she did! All that beer added up on the pack weight.



This beer was a collab between those two breweries actually, good kolsch.



Probably the coolest spot I've had a beer.



And today, after visiting RRBC the other day for some dinner and Pliny and bottles to go, I figured this would be a good home breaking beer.

I took a year and a half break, finally getting back into it.

That RRBC beer looks pretty good. I have a work trip to San Francisco in Nov and might have to find a night to make a run up to Santa Rosa
