It'll never happen. TT posts in here like Furley does over the rest of the board. Doh! You made me post again.Yeah but you are also forgetting people #####ing at NG and TT for getting their new board up, and NG trying to be the top dawg (posts) here.I have ~1500 posts. I'll just delete some to make it take longer.
consolidating posts. :( About 4.5 would be my guess.
You're doing that on purpose aren't you?! :(
:( No, I seriously don't know... then I am done unless someone brings up something to chat about... a bit slow it seems.I am taking notes on the underrated brews though.You're doing that on purpose aren't you?!
Just got off the phone. It's a go. I'm headin' to the greatest par 3 in all of golf this weekend.

click on the "replies" part next to this thread link when you're reading the board index. Or, click here. Surprising how much Gator has posted. I was ahead of him, then we were close for a while. Now he's way far away. He should pass Skylord soon and start closing in on TT in another couple of years.You're doing that on purpose aren't you?!

S, how do I find that.. I never mess around with the options or "my controls" feature, is it in there?

Go to the main FFA index, where all the thread titles are. See the number of posts underlined next to the beer thread title? Click that and a tile pops up with every single person who has posted in the thread. Works for any thread.
It's a decent enough beer, but nothing real special. You know you have to open that case. That and try some. You can always furley it afterwards.New Glarus Hop Hearty. Nice English/US hybrid IPA, especially the combo of Goldings and Cascades.Was poking through the beer cellar and found a 12 pack box of what I thought was empties. Wrong. A bunch of brews that must have been sitting there for *years.* Found a AAA Brewing Co. Dunkelweiss (that facility's been gone since maybe 1999? Now the bottling brewery for Lake Placid), Tremont Porter (when they had their own brewery), DFH Immort Ale from about 2002, Wagner Sled Dog Doppelbock, Upper Canada True Bock... all kinds of stuff, like an all star selection from the "No Longer Reviewable" library on BA. There's a case box next to it and I'm afraid to open it.

why is this one considered an american strong ale? seems more like an RIS though the only stong ales I have to compare them to are Stone's offerings (maybe Stone's aren't traditional strong ales?)needless to say, i didn't know that there was an "older viscosity." now on my wants list.this has been a good beer week for ol' furley

BA named b0ldfacelies
Can't wait to crack that one (thx, Skylord!) - BW or Old Ale, two of my favorite styles.Reminds me - I need to get out to the Cape soon. Cape Cod Brewing Co just released their Old Ale on tap for growler fills. Plus they set aside 55 gallons in a oak barrel to age. THAT will be fun. Should be out sometime this summer. I really like that brewery - solid IPA with a good hop bite, excellent seasonals.i wonder how many barrels o the older were produced. I havent had much experience w/ old ales but I was under the impression that they were close to barley wines.

Nice beer. Going down way more quickly than I planned on.
Glad to see you like it.Nice beer. Going down way more quickly than I planned on.
Not that big - it's a weird long skinny space (maybe 5-6' x 15') behind the kids' playroom that has shelves and a LOT of crap in it, in addition to beer. One shelf I rarely go to because it's mostly full of my wife's canning stuff. Someone who shall not be named except for in the prior sentence rearranged the room a couple of years ago. I didn't see them and figured I'd had drank those over time and...That is quite the nice surprise.

They weren't on the barleywine and big ale shelf, where is where I would have put them, rather than behind a 12 pack of cheapass beer surrounded by boxes of grape jam.
I will gladly send you the money to buy me one and for shipping.From Portsmouht Brewing's Site:
I believe it's the #1 New England RIS and I've been waiting for it. $20 Growlers though..
Buy me one, we can work something out.From Portsmouht Brewing's Site:

The #1 is the last one I have of last year's bottling. Had one last about mid-August, and was still a little over-the-top on the bourbon, so should be just about right.The #2 is this year's bottling. my understanding was the brewery (which is a pretty small outfit) wasn't going to do the Bourbon Porter again, but lo and behold it was out. My local store owner said it was running about the same time frame as the #1 (guessing they got new barrels), so the #2 I sent you should get put up for a while.
Well, my guess is the larger box with a slightly later ate would be one of the first not on the truck, but I'm surprised too. Wouldn't have been much I can do about it tonight though - had a party for a co-worker at a local brewpub (had a couple of 20 oz cask conditioned stouts
) and prepping for a promotional interview tomorrow morning. Trust me, will be hitting it heavy tomorrow night though 
Everything I have shipped to the east coast has taken exactly on week. If I ship on a Monday, it will arrive the following Monday.Well, my guess is the larger box with a slightly later ate would be one of the first not on the truck, but I'm surprised too.
