What kind of beer is everyone drinking tonight? (2 Viewers)

holy bejeebus.

that place is horrible.

you can't even make a play on words w/o someone saying something smarmy.. jeebus.. it's like they grew up without ever being introduced to anything that might be called humorous.

i posted to ask if anyone had seen the 60th Anniversary St Bernardus in the US yet... JorisP responded to say he wasn't sure but the last he checked it was still in barrels (is he a St B's brewer or something?). so i said something like "oh... so no chance that it's hit the US then, huh?"

in sort of a self-deprecating smack on the forehead.

some idiot responds with a "Joris' response wasn't good enough for you? You're going to have to learn to be patient and not such a ####" or some such.

holy ####.. the whole place is like that though. what in the hell?

i understand geeks in any niche tend to be uber-serious about their chosen craft but... holy ####... lighten up a little. i've seen other people ask innocuous questions and be shot down by several BA's who just don't seem to understand what it means to be funny.
kinda like the Shark Pool here, huh?

Even less humor than the Shark Pool, if you can believe it.

Looking at Skylord's BA reviews, doesn't look like he had a great CO beer experience.
Most of the good CO beers I've had, so i tried a bunch of stuff I'd never had. Wasn't that sucessful.

I think that's it. That is a lot to type. Quite the trip.
Wow, that's a great list of beer, dude.:jealous:
:thumbup: I might need to compensate by buying a sportscar or something.

I'm upset that I wasn't able to get any Dreadnaught. How much did you pay for the Goose Island Imperial IPA? Mine was 20 dollars for the 4 pack :eek: . FatMax better be right about how good these are.
$18 per 4 pack. And they are that good.
$18 per 4-pack here too. And like TT said, they are that good. That's the only beer I will freakishly seek out even at the price. Walked into Binny's and mentioned I wanted it. They had 4 4packs left in the beer case, I said "mine". All of them. I'll make you a deal -- if you don't like them, I'll pay to have them picked up, boxed and sent to me. All you have to do is open the door and hand them out. I'm sad just thinking of the day when my stash runs out. Hopefully my 16 remaining will last me until they re-start. I think that's November or some time around then. I might just buy them direct from the brewery by the case if they will sell them to me at any discount. Otherwise, I'll save up and buy retail. It's like crystal meth to me. I'd gnaw off my foot if I were chained and a GI Imperial were just out of reach. Seriously. :unsure:
 
Forgot to add:

Having my first-ever Hop Rod Rye right now.

It's pretty darned good. Not nearly as "hopped up" as the bottle implies though. But then again, I consider DFH 120 to be merely adequate when comes to being "hoppy". I guess that's one reason I like GI Imp so much. I can still smell that Imperial. :sniff:

 
I'll make you a deal -- if you don't like them, I'll pay to have them picked up, boxed and sent to me.
:no: I just had one. Damn, a 4 pack is not going to be enough. Very complex, lovely hop taste, and just sweet enough to balance it all out. I'm still deciding though if they are are worth twice the price of the DFH 90 minute.

Seriously, don't drink any more. I'll pay YOU to get them. Plus shipping and a valet to walk them to the nearest shipping location. I'm thinking you don't want to be bothered with that yucky stuff. :yucky: (Disclaimer: the answer to the "DFH 90 question" is :yes: :yes: :yes: )

His response is awesome.
 
His response is awesome.
I will defend beerinator though and say that he is a pretty good guy. He hosts a site for NC beer drinkers and he also responsible for The Beer Mapping Project which is becoming a must visit site before I visit other places.
seems like a decent enough guy to me. which is why i didn't reply to him. he's been nothing but cool from what i've seen.
The problem with the BA message board is the universal problem with email...its hard to determine emotion. If they got some emoticons/smilies, it would be much easier.I'm sure we would get along with all those guys, I mean they are all beer geeks. People just come off funny on that board.

Sam Adams Cherry Wheat for the 1st time ever.

At first it was cough syrupy tasting, but towards the middle it aint too bad. Not something Id drink alot of, but better than I expected after hearing some peoples opinions.

 
Finally got my Liquid Solutions order, as well as my Russian River.

Here's what I got.

Picture one. These are the recognizable beers (IPA vs Brut I put because Tip Top already posted a picture of it once)

Picture two. These are the beers that I had never heard of when I ordered...except for the one in the front that got blown out, thats the Russian River Beatification.

Prime example of why I don't post very much over there.
 
the thread has been deleted.
:lmao: damn't i wish i'd saved some of the responses.

lots of very serious replies saying things like

"why would there be 'bad blood' between us.. we both respect beer"

and

"what is the point of this thread? are you trying to stir a fight between the two sites?"

Got a call from the wife today at work. "Honey, what did you order from Belgium?" Looks like my Westy is here and I won't be able to touch it for another week due to the stupid medication I'm on.

Nice.My Russian River Beatification bottles arrived today too. They better be good. $40 for four 375ml bottles is a little steep, even by my standards.

You can just pack that and mail it to me. I'll offer up sex with me or my wife. Hell, both of us at the same time if you like.

Sex with Furley for the Belgians? :no:
 
In order to warm up to the proposition of making love to MIC for beer, I am drinking a Moylander Double IPA that was kindly sent to me by FatMax, with whom I have already had phone sex with on multiple occasions. Damn, this is a hop bomb. Both citrusy and piney, this thing is overloaded with hops, to the point that the finish is almost gritty. Really good beer that puts the bitter in bitter beer face.
