12 bucks for a two-hearted ale? Jesus Christ. Sam Smith oatmeal stout is the benchmark of oatmeal stouts. I used to drink founding fathers out of them ten years ago. Love that place.

Apparently, Keifer Sutherland has been in there several times, he really likes it there.

The free nachos alone are reason enough for me, but that Oatmeal Stout gets me poopty no matter what lol

That's seriously so cool

I tried to get in there several years back, it's not easy to get in the actual brewery nor the brewhouse/restaurant.

The places in the south towns that started to carry it back in the day would put it on special for like $3 when no one would buy it. Then the fan would hit the poop.

Sorry about your Indians Pach. Can't drop 2 of 3 to the White Sox during a WC race.
- doppelthat

meh...thx...it wasn't their year...however, with all the injuries to the starters they had, we found out that they have some great young arms...Bieber and Civale look great, Plesac solid and Plutko O.K...

if kluber's back (possible trade candidate) and carassco recovers from his bout with leukemia, those two, clevinger and two from the cast above will make for an impressive rotation...

gotta fix that bullpen, though

HalfHand Bobby works over at the Brewery and stops at Tryon every afternoon on his walk home from the bus stop.

Can you believe the sunovafemale dog picks Genny Lite Cans for his case every week? He chases Goldschlager with it. Good guy, bonkers choices.

Rodgers made some absolutely horrible throws in the 4th quarter tonight, and his receivers didn't help by dropping everything he threw at them regardless.

What an epic collapse.

I was leaning toward Green Bay vs. Kansas City this season but it's going to be hard not to predict a rematch between New England and Los Angles. Please god no to that.

To each his own. Someone told me that Genesee used to be priced to compete with Budweiser and all the big brands, but in the "beer crisis" of the 80's, they lowered their costs to try and out-price their competition and once the market recovered, they gained a stigma as a bad beer over it's cheap price. Any truth to this?

Once upon a time in Rochester, in the mid70s when I first started stealing beers from my old man, the only question was whether you drank Cream Ales or Red Eyes. Neither one was particularly good but they were both OK and they were cold and they brought a buzz, and Topper and Standard had already closed up shop by that time.

Some people thought they were fancy. They drank Lowenbrau - premillennial poseurs. Mostly McQuaid asswipes from Pittsford.

Then in the late 70s along came OVs, and Molsons, and Labatts - and Coors! - and they were deemed exotic and new and better. So Genny had to branch out and went on this odd diversification of brands - Lite Beers, 12 Horse, JW Dundee, Honey Brown, all that stuff. Right around the same time Utica Club switched its name to FX Matt’s at first, and then more romantically, Saranac.

And good old Cream Ales and Red Eyes got left behind and couldn’t sell because that was your grandfathers beer. And then came Coronas and all the microbrews and ABV and home brewing. And for the Cream
Ales or the Red Eyes to move, they had to be cheap enough for your grandfather who by now was 80, or your occasional “ironic” 20-something beady-eyed-douchebag who claims to love it in some kind of contrarian bid for authenticity.

So yeah, they're still pretty cheap, and now, ironically under the proper Genny label, in addition to the Bock, which was always a big deal every spring, they’re making the Kolsch, and an Octoberfest. I didn’t like the Kolsch - the grapefruit was way over the top - and after a couple of Octoberfests I start to suspect they’re just Bocks in a different can. It’ll be interesting to see what Genny uses to bridge the season from Octoberfest to Bock, some sort of marketing thing, a Saison maybe, or porter??

I’ll just keep kicking the Red Eyes. And the Bocks when I can find em.

Yeah.

Asplund dropped down the lineup every day. If he was so great, that wouldn't have happened.

Cozens is going to be a wonderful player soon. He held his own, despite being an 18 year old Yukonian (frank)face moron who's skill tops out as Brandon Dubinsky.

Lazar is curious. Let's wait and see.

Amerks lose 4-1.

Clearly they need Okposo, Larsson and Scandella down there to help.

Genesee Bock only comes out toward the end of February, it's a seasonal spring brew they do. You're lucky to find it past May, best months are March and April in the WNY area.

The Genesee Brewery is awesome, I love the place. They have Genesee 12 Horse Ale on tap only there and it's one of the best beers you will ever taste.

I'm not a fan of most of the newer breweries in Buffalo. I don't care for Flying Bison, I don't like Big Ditch, Community Beer Project is mediocre, New York Beer Project is absolute trash... I'll go to Pearl Street over all of them to be honest.

I prefer the hole in the wall places that simply serve a good selection of craft beers. Allen Hardware is excellent, Founding Father's is one of the coolest spots in Buffalo and they have Samuel Smith's (An Independent Brewery in England - One of, if not my favorite breweries) beer in the bottle and the Tabernacle is pretty (frank)ing cool but they are massive hipster douche-bags and they usually have a cover charge on the weekends that's absolutely ridiculous given the price of their beers. Their cheapest beer is a can of Narragansett and that's like 6 bucks, and a draft of Bell's Two-Hearted Ale (another one of my absolute favorite beers and breweries) is like 12 (frank)ing dollars.

- BeadyEyedDouche


So can I ask a stupid question?

Gennesee makes Genny Screamers and craft beer? I always imagined that the red cans were for slamming back and regretting it on the can the next day.

And the craft beer is good? I will have to partake when I come down to buffalo in November for the sabres/bills game.

There's way to much to dissect here. This post essentially takes the stance of 'your opinion of these players is right and the coach and GM is wrong'

There's nothing wrong for wanting better players. I do too. But it's the only part of the post I can agree with.

- TheSabresTaco


All many of us are saying is this:

We all know the suck that is Scandella, Sobotka, and Okposo, and no amount of lipstick will make those pigs good players.

Its easy to see what Lazar, Asplund, and Gilmour bring.

What's the problem with having those 3 supplant the other 3 bums and seeing if it works out?

Sam Smith beers were some of the ones that got me into craft beer while I was in college. One of my first homebrews was a clone of the Nut Brown Ale. And you can get a 6 pack of Two Hearted for $10. I would never pay $12 for one Two Hearted.
