Ugh sucks about gross uncle ruining the whole bowl

he married in. he's not blood. thank god.

total neanderthal. creepy, gross, freakishly dumb - the total package. we're not even comfortable leaving kids in a room alone with him.

never been into casks, i guess i just never see a type i like ? i generally ignore the cask at my regular.

They're like bottle conditioned beers in keg form basically. Unfiltered and unpasteurized and they mature in the casks. A lot of my fav beers I've had were better on cask than tap or bottle, though a few were not as good on cask so I guess it depends.

edit: Stone is confirmed for cask days as well. Cool.

Nothing like a good dales pale ale

chicory stout

i like a lot of their beers but this one is kind of disappointing. it's not terrible but something is off. i have one more in the fridge and i'll drink it but i won't buy it again.

I love it for drinking a glass, two tops. Strong coffee/chocolate taste. Little peanut butter taste at the end.

If you enjoy coffee flavored porters or want to try something different/unique, yes I would highly recommend.

Kicksave, you should try this.

I will probs try it but haven't seen it around for a while. Or maybe I just haven't been paying attention.

i have and reviewed it a few months ago.

i feel the same way. it was delicious. but it's a dessert beer. you don't buy a six pack and sit and drink three of them. it's like a treat you enjoy every once in a while.

With a sort of Edward Gorey twist.

That works.

Bad over-yeast taste. Need to think back on what I did - may have added too much sugar (honey) by volume prior to bottling - gave those little bastards too much fuel to breed.

Should have just made mead mate.

In the last year, more Bud Light has been sold in the United States than any other beer ($5.28 billion at retail). One out of every five beers bought is a Bud Light.

americans are the dumbest people i know.

i blame alabama crimson tide fans. i don't have anything against their football team but i picture their tailgayte parties as a bunch of sunburned people with bushy goatees and camoflage hats drinking bud light cans.

it's scary.

Yeah, using honey as a priming sugar is tricky. Was the other way around for my Belgian Pale Ale. Even after three weeks the CO2 concentration wasn't high enough. Will go back to table sugar.
