I am starting up a brewery with the intent to only brew a beer with this name. I need some starting money. Thanks ahead of time.

So I just found out untappd is doing a March Madness Brewery bracket -

https://untappd.com/madness

Problem is, it's not "Who do you think is making the best stuff" or anything, it's solely based on the number of check-ins.
Which means that Anheuser-Busch have advanced once already, and are likely to again.

Like, I get "popularity contests", but isn't part of the point and joy of craft beer discovery of different things, and part of the point of Untappd is rating said beers? Instead of just checking in that you had 6 Bud Lights on your Friday night?

I ended up with the family at a BWWs and got Bells' hazy beer and it's a solid IPA that looks like poo poo. It wasn't particularly juicy so that made me happy.

Semi-regular check-in on 2013 New Glarus Wild Sour: this is still better than 99.99% of American wild ales and one of my favorite beers ever.

I got a glass with my bottle today! Man I love Orval.

E: to watch Purdue probably lose I'm drinking √225 and √400 side by side. I def prefer the base beer but 400 is cool in it's own way, just too sour.

Unrelated to anything really, local brew opened up not to long ago. Someone complained that they were playing "that rap crap" one day on the local Facebook neighborhood watch. Said that this isn't that kinda of neighborhood and it will essentially give the wrong impression to people.

I had CBS for the first time last night. How does anyone like this? It's awful. It tastes like an ok imperial stout that's been rammed so full of maple candy and bourbon that it's just a diabetes delivery device now.

I saw something like this on a local newspaper's 25 best hole in the wall restaurants about a chicken and waffles restaurant. This place is by a university and Busch Gardens so while it's not exactly in the ghetto, it's hood adjacent. But, hoo boy I love their blurb that's warning all the yuppie wanna be foodies.

quote:

Mutha Cluckin’ incredible fried chicken. This place is wild, they even have a red carpet outside. The korean fried chicken served on a waffle with their signature maple syrup is THE order. Heads up, explicit music is played at all times - leave the kids at home if you’re dining in.

There are way worse offenders from omnipollo in the betes category. Lorelei has actual chunks of sugar floating around.

I was referring to the amount of maple. That poo poo sucked when I had to pour it where I work. It smelled like a wafflehouse all the time because of the small amount of beer that was in a drip tray.

I'm not hating, there's some I've really liked. Bellwoods' Coconut Rum Skeleton Key was amazing and the Dieu du Ciel Peche Mortel variants are almost always great every year. CBS was terrible in comparison, almost as bad as Omnipollo Prodromus. The focus on racism makes sense, focusing on just beer is hard enough.

Are we calling all adjunct stouts "pastry" now? I've never had anything but regular rear end Peche but I cannot comprehend how they would turn it into a dessert beer. Or more importantly, why they would do that.

Ah, drat, next time. I was only there like, 36 hours and our client was taking care of breakfast and lunch so I didn’t really think I’d have much opportunity, but then we ended up at the same lovely tourist trap for dinner two nights in a row which is like one of my deepest fears during work travel.
