Believe it or not i thought the bloody mary was way better than the moscow mule or the paloma. Martin House shoulda re-thought bringing out that whole line-up though.

Sunset beer - only the beer wasn't all that good.
Going with a classic for Aggie baseball tonight. Pretty sure I heard about this beer originally on this thread.
A new favorite! Anyone have recs for other Trappist ales?
there aren't that many, try them all!Gaucho said:

I really like the Chimay Blue label and Roquefort 8.
I knew you would give in!La Fours said:
Lol. I've been buying the Equilibrium stuff when I can find some decently fresh.
I like everything I have had from them. I think Wavelength was my favorite.La Fours said:

Yep, that's a really good one.
Another refugee from the back of the fridge. A decent Triple NEIPA from Omnium Brewing in NH
After much thought (like the last 5 minutes)…
We are officially going to shift to "buy in" model for this years March Madness contest. $30 will get you in… so start checking those couch cushions.
1st place receives the "pot" in 70% beer and 20% cash (woah your math is ****ty… stay with me here). Can also do 100% beer if the winner chooses. Beer will be purchased and sent by me and will be specifically catered to the winners wants. I've got a lot of connections in a lot of places and I'll be in the Midwest this summer.
2nd place receives a New Glarus/midwest box from me. I will use the remaining 10% from the buy in to make this box happen. I might use a little bit of my own $ to make this happen too.
I probably won't be buying in because buying beer for myself is weird. I'll still participate (and obviously can't win) just so I can talk **** when I finish *checks notes* 2nd to last.
If we get 20 participants (which is pretty typical). You'd be looking at right around $500 for a 1st place box after shipping fees which is pretty sexy.
More details to come later.

So, this is a first. I was having a Pliny at a bar in the LA area (I don't want to sell them out) and when I got a second one the bartender took my empty glass straight to the taps and filled it back up.
I've never seen that happen anywhere. I'm still drinking it, but that was weird.

Do I spy fathers office? Looks kind of like their bar to me.
That's a good eye, but it seems it has been too long since you've been to Father's Office. You forgot that they serve their Pliny in these glasses.
That sucks. Don't think I've ever had that happen. Makes you wonder how much they take people's glasses back in near contact with the faucets. And, if they're pouring it ****ty, getting those glasses or the liquid in them all in contact with the faucet itself.

Ha indeed I did. Hard to beat a Pliny and FO burger, even if they are a bit pertinacious.
Hit up a book talk in Chinatown with Massimo Bottura and his wife, for their new book Slow Food Fast Cars. Needed some refreshment after (and Togo cans) so good thing Highland Park was 5 minutes away.
Too lazy to get a glass

Hate to follow that post, but here goes.
My affection for this brewery is probably linked to its prime location.

Other Half just showed up in BCS. Decently fresh too. It is really good, but at $25 after taxes, it's not that good.

That's just way too much for IPAs

Speaking of location... We were at the Kona (Craft Brew Alliance at that time) Brewery in NH back in March of 2018. Took this picture out of the window while we were eating lunch. I had Cisco beers that day.betadawg1 said:

Today's Friday share beers. Two on the right are homebrews.
Edit: Another showed up. I expected to hate it but It was aight.

Parish Barrel Aged Swamp Stack. Aged 3 years in Blanton's barrels! Packs a punch at 13%.

Would love to be up in the mountains skiing right now, but not a bad day for some porch drinking this afternoon.
"Citra Revengeance" 8% NEIPA. A collaboration between Mason Ale Works in San Diego and Beer Zombies Brewing in Las Vegas. Pretty decent but has a odd coconut finish. As always, Rotolo's cannot get a glass clean.
Interesting, didn't realize Rotolo's was a chain. I've only been to the one there in the village at Keystone.
In the land of 5% beer for a few days!
