i enjoy fancy beers; preferably ones that are brewed by monks
I am excited about DogFish heads Theobroma, even though it isn't made by monks, because they used science to try and replicate and ancient mayan recipe
It's just the angle that the picture was taken from that makes it look long. And the shitty lens on the camera. At different points in the video, different parts look long and distorted. And town cars have big fancy grills that would have shown up for sure in the video.

Podlyyou unzipped me! it's all coming back! i don't like it!Registered Userregular
The tap vs. bottle vs. can argument is my favorite honestly.
"The beer picks up a taste from the aluminum can, bottles are superior, unless you can get it on tap!"
"Guess what the beer on tap comes in!"
"Gold plated cables give you much better sound quality!"
"What's the wires in the cable made out of?"
"Copper."
Gold does give you a better sound quality, but that only matters in studios where you are really trying to sum correctly and get a consistent stream. But, yeah, in home audio it's pretty ridiculous.
As for the kegs: surface area, brah. Also, you could just get cask ale like a real man.

that is a terrible logic- really the good thing about taps is that the beer is (usually) fresher (more fresh?) and is able to develop a better head due to pouring
can vs clear bottle- can, because skunky beer is bad
can vs dark bottle - bottle, only because again, can pouring can disrupt the head which is crucial to the aroma and mouthfeel of some beers

I wish I didn't have a fridge full of shitty beer so I could go out and buy good stuff.
Blue Moon is pretty good. You can get it pretty easily in London these days, in bottle form. It is usually one of the better options
Also - wtf? I saw a tv show tonight that was sort of interactive - it had a bar code on screen for extra content for those who have smart phones with bar code readers. Weird

Their Raison d'être is phenomenal. Also, the Saranac pomegranate wheat is pretty good, if a little milder than expected.

It could only possibly matter in the highest end setting imaginable, and even then. My friend's dad is a free lance sound engineer and does commercials, television and music videos and I think his set up is entirely copper cables. I think his response the one time gold cables got brought up and I was around him was "What, am I made out of money?"

I don't have a fondness for many IPAs, so I avoided Dogfish head for a long time; but now that there are a lot more choices from them that are popular enough to make it into stores down here I am all for them.

Gold does NOT give you better sound quality. At all. Even a little. What it does give you is a cable with contacts that won't corrode with constant plugging and unplugging in a humid climate. And a corroded cable will sound worse.
But in brand new cables? You won't be able to tell the difference. Copper contacts would be even better than gold in a vacuum.

Yeah I like me some blue moon.
But... the best beer I've ever had came from Washington state. Walking Man Brown Ale. I have considered taking a trip up there just to drink the beer again and visit the brewery.

Sam Adams is the saving grace of getting a drink at a lot of restaurants.
I do remember going to some crappy place and asking what was on tap. It was Bud, Bud Light, or Heineken. I asked for water.
I guess this is where living in the land of micro brew is nice, I haven't yet been to a restaurant in the western washington area that had such an awful selection.

I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

Oh shit. You should check out The Saloon on U Street for beers. They usually have a ton of good stuff... then when you're drunk you can stumble over to Ben's and eat chili fries until you puke.

I can normally get a Sam, or at worst a Blue Moon. Magic Hat is getting a lot more prevalent, and even chain eateries are branching out into some of the nicer localish stuff.

Yeah, I am one of those :P

Nerds.
So you see a shiny metal grill in the security pictures?
And: I, too, like Labatt Blue which is a shame cause I used to live in Michigan and now I live in Kansas.
In Michigan, Labatt Blue is on tap and called a 'domestic'. In Kansas it is only on tap at Buffalo Wild Wings which is just a shitty place always.

Only wanks go with silver wiring.
Ok, deck-lid if you want. The rear deck on the Lincoln is much large than in that picture.
Also a less-pronounced snout on the car in photo vs. Lincoln. Basically its too small for a Lincoln.
I do make it a point to correct things like improper use of the subjunctive mood or participle usage and stuff like that.
Thing is, I can tell the difference between having pop in a can and pop in a glass bottle. Big difference.
Speaking of, Virgils Cream Soda is the fucking drink of the gods.

God I hate this so much. No, I am not paying $40 for a 3 foot HDMI cable when I get get a 10 foot one shipped for less than $10.
Hahah yeah, it's priced like a fancy beer in CA for some insane reason. Like 8 bucks for a 6-er at bevmo.

Don't ever ask if you can inspect their lines though, waitresses get all offended.

This is random, but the Heineken New Zealand is really, really good. Like, it's an entirely different beer.
some places charge a fee
dollar or two max
