Heads up: Voodoo Ranger Atomic Pumpkin contains habanero, for some reason. It's not super spicy, but it's definitely that kind of heat that sticks with you long after you're finished, and I can't imagine that having more than a couple in an evening will bode well for your butthole the next morning.
Michigan's being from Old Nation is very surprising as everything I've had by them has been bad to acceptable.
I think my favorite beer from Michigan is Bee Sting.
Also tonight I learned that my alcoholic cat Snickers, who constantly tries to steal my beer, also likes stouts. If you leave your beer by its self around him he will either stick his paw or face in it, or knock it over and then start licking it up. Yes I know beer is bad for cats and don't give it to him willingly but he can be can be a little ass. Today he jumped on my lap and shoved his face into my pint and got a lick or two in while sticking his butt in my face before I got him off me. Skittles, my other cat doesn't care about beer and barely will even sniff at the stuff.
So in closing, Snickers is a filthy drunk who doesn't have boundaries or know what personal space is.
Ugh these assholes. They make OK beer! I do enjoy some of it, but they are so over rated and the people at the brew pub are assholes. Also the owners are rude as hell as are their kids.

Huh.
Man, I really like 3 Floyds and have never have a problem with the brewpub. That is super disappointing to hear, that you have that kind of experience.

Oh yeah everytime I have been there the wait staff and bartenders are super assholes and from talking to others and looking at their review this was not an isolated experience. Though it was a few years ago so it might be different. I met the owners at a brewfest once, they were not there in a capacity as a vendor, but going from brewery to brewery letting them know "Yes we are the 3 Floyd's guys, and yeah this ok I guess, not as good as ours keep trying bye" and it rubbed me super the wrong way.
Also like, I enjoy some of their beer, Robert the Bruce, Gumballhead, Zombie Dust, most of their collaborations, but everyone here (I live like 30 minutes from the brewery) jerks off to how amazing all their beer is and how its superior to all other beer and its just so wonderful. Its very annoying.

Yeah, that sort of attitude gets old real quick, no doubt. It's just a big drag to hear that people are having that kind of experience with a brewery that I really liked and didn't know had that sort of shit going on.
It was really good talking to the Young Master and Yardley guys in HK, to hear that the scene is still friendly even though it's growing/maturing.

Its entirely possible I just had an isolated experience. I also had a kerfuffle with the owners of Greenbush a few years back.....maybe I'm the asshole I don't know.

Update: I have had a couple more since my last post, and I have come to the conclusion that this is a bad beer. I'm not sure where the pumpkin is supposed to come in, because mostly all I can taste is that someone dropped a pickled jalapeno into a pretty plain brown ale. I'm going to try and unload my remaining three bottles on a circ clerk I know who regularly drinks fireball whiskey. D-.

Jealous. I have GOT to get there one of these years.
As for me, the Hood River Hops Fest is this weekend. So while I won't be drinking anyway near the variety, at least I got the quality part covered.

New Belgium's Fat Tire Belgium White is fucking tasty. Rich and slightly creamy. Mild hops and a rich bread flavor. I could drink this for breakfast.

Just made a batch of chili to get rid of that terrible habanero beer. To celebrate, I cracked open my last Steamworks Great Pumpkin Ale. On the first swig, the burning begins.
I dumped the wrong beer into my chili, and now I'm in a Twilight Zone episode.

Oh man, I can totally picture that. I'm sorry! :bro:
I'm going to make some ginger ale on Tuesday. Got my raw ginger and some lemons and limes. I'm ready for some tasty soda.
My town had the local brew fest the last weekend of September. Unfortunately my town is upper middle class assholes and tickets sell out about 5 minutes after they go on sale, and the brew fest routinely runs out of beet an hour to and hour and a half before the event ends, and they oversell like crazy, making it a bad time.
However a smaller town about 20 minutes away has theirs on the 14th and my whole family is going. Its a smaller affair with some less known and more local brews, but hey its beer!
so i'm back in the all-grain game proper after some distractions this year (like another damn baby). this one just finished conditioning and tastes great: i called it the "supermassive" black lager in honour of my son's love for space shit and for something cool to draw on the chalkboard/brewfridge. it's basically a simple schwartzbier:
next up i've got an altbier: 70% pilsner, 30% munich with carafa III for colour. yeast is safale k-97 which i've never used before, but i only put it down yesterday and it's got big krausen already set to 17c so i'm happy! i've used spalt for both but i'm thinking of dry hopping the altbier too. see how it tastes closer to bottling.
Another part looks and says " . . . how bad those nozzles are going to get thanks to people who unknowingly submerge them while pouring?"
Eh, as long as it's cleaned regularly (which it should be) it's a non-issue. If I owned a bar I'd clean the taps every other day (if not more frequently) and flush the lines every week.

I used to drink in a bar where all the lines tasted like sourdough that had done wrong and died without repenting. We put up with it because it was like $7 pitchers and the bar was on the fifth and top floor of the tallest building in town, so you got a good view. It was great for the 4th of July.

I bought a six pack of it and I'm thinking of having my second of the night in bit.
But drinking too often gives stomach issues.
