  1. I dont mean this in a dickish way, but .... why??
  2. I brought one of those to Thanksgiving from the exact same batch/year and my beer nerd/massive beer trader BIL practically shit himself that I still had one and was willing to drink it even after he told me the value. I've long since ditch bottle collecting/cellaring, and wasn't about to ship it off to some dipshit in Mesa Arizona for him to enjoy. Drink it.
  3. Well, according to ABW, they make about half the volume of Sputnik as they do their other seasonals, so stock up if you like it. Can someone remind my alcohol ventilated brain: was Sputnik ever sold in six packs ... and was the 4-pack price ~$10.50 (at any open HEB) last year?
  4. it has the body of a stout, which i guess (?) might be the only real stylistic difference bw a stout and a porter. Its definitely not abv in this current brewing age.
  5. well it really needs to be a year rounder anyway. they've got the space and i've got the money.
  6. Zilker CMS is a core beer and takes permanent residency in my fridge even during the hot months because fuck seasonal stout brewers. Pusses. Can't believe i've completely dismissed Sputnik. I haven't even seen it around town yet. Is it on shelves?
  7. A little help with something I'm working on: What have been yalls favorite local (Austin) seasonal beers this year? (caveat: the beer has to have been distro'd/packaged) A few of mine that I dug/still digging this year: Real Ale Swifty Zilker 3rd Space IPA Live Oak Gold (yall prolly dig Primus more tho, right?) Jester King Montmorency v Balaton BA Cherry Sour Austin Beerworks Super Awesome Helles Hi Sign Violet Blueberry Blonde What were some of your favorites?
  8. not really in to tripels but how is it?
  9. he watches a ton of youtube and lots of college bball and my wife is a Michigan St alum. He does.
  10. I was gonna take my 7 year old to his first basketball game on Saturday. Fuck that.
  11. my god this team is so annoying to watch.
  12. 'Cody' really has got to be the perfect aggy name
  13. you handled this better than i would have. there are very few "good ags" out there and I'll give that honor to LL and REK and my buddy Cody.
  14. Dicko the Punto [edit: missed reading the "so-so year" part, but i think dickson pushed his grade up bc of the bowl for sure]
  15. big swing and a miss there not including zilker coffee milk stout, which is not only the best coffee stout in austin, but the best coffee stout (((IN THE WORLD)))
  16. gotta root for hurts. pretty badass moment for him
  17. the fucking alamo bowl? are you some kind of pussy?
  18. ... or doesn't know how to break the state-of-the-art 2-3 zone
  19. we were fucking 5-27 from three. what kind of dumbfuck doesn't reign that in? shaka is the actual worst.
  20. A blur. Also, like any trip where you just eat, drink, and hike, makes you wanna move there. Its hilarious how anyone in Texas or even a place like Austin thinks that the brewpub market is anywhere close to saturation. Sure, regional breweries are a thing of the past (for now), but nothing beats a neighborhood brewpub that sells 96% of what they brew in-house. Thats the kind of city I want to live in. Austin is as far away from being that kind of city as we are from colonizing Pluto. Our bnb was two blocks from Prost, so that was rad. Also, Our Mutual Friend might have been my favorite overall experience bw beer/taproom vibe. I didn't get to like a half dozen of the places I wanted to get to though. Denver is cool man. And Texas needs to legalize it.
  21. Pleasantly surprised by the new coffee dubbel by Celis. They're batting like .133 now.
  22. I'm stunned. I'm pissed. Its Berhalter.
  23. Let's Hear It For The Boy. Nothin says Saturday Night Lights like Deniese Williams.
  24. If we're gonna change out DSB bc apparently this is being done by MSU, I propose Nobody Does It Better by Carli Simon from The Spy Who Loved Me. Just ballady enough but with a good chorus. Or maybe The Fuck Shop.
