Axis is fine but off the top of my head, I like Art Car, Yellow Rose, Electric Jellyfish, and the Tupps DDH stuff better

EJ is a pithy mess now. It actually makes my stomach hurt. PH introduced local $18 4 packs and $19 stadium pints to Austin so they’re lucky I didn’t fuckin leave em out altogether. EJ is Austin top selling beer by volume, so fuck me I guess.

Normally I can take all the abuse from the dorks on Reddit and the dweebs on Insta/FB/comments sections and even most of you assholes on here but you in particular have been such a cunt for so long that I’d love to see your list fuckhead. Travel to almost 80 local breweries over 10 months, spend your own money on LOTS of shitty, awful beer and boring, single-template taprooms and with the little free time you have left over from your ACTUAL job write 8,000 words about it and submit it here fuckhead. I’d love to see what an effete dickhead loves to drink so I can learn. 

also independence is ass. The one good IPA they had in Liberty Lunch they discontinued and their taprooms is lazy as fuck for a legacy brewer. It’s also why (512) rarely makes the power rankings despite the fact I invest a lot of money in PP and their OG IPA.

oh wow, look at all the trouble you went to just to get shit on. you brought this on yourself, i would never attempt such a fruitless labor. no one gives a shit about your beer opinion and i'm not deluded enough to think they would care about mine. congratulations on wasting your time and money in the pursuit of righteous journalism. responses like this are the reason you deserve the shit you get from any and all corners of the internet, because you're a whiny bitch about it just like jeff stuffings. 

also, i agree that independence isn't good.

And yet here you are and always have been shitting your dumb opinions onto one of the most trafficked beer spaces on the internet you fuckin dork. lol at investing in H&G you seem like an giant fucking idiot.

it's not like pizza and beer is a unique idea, but it's truly amazing how much pinthouse ripped off pizza port. from the picnic tables and arcade games to the ocean theme and children running around everywhere. it was like being in austin except in san diego.

these voodoo brewpubs are just taproom restaurants. they don’t brew a goddamned thing. just ship beer down from PA. there is one in katy that i hope meets the same fate.

I’ve been drinking all day. Finishing off the night with a heavy. Which means I’m gonna fall asleep on the couch. And wake up ready for some Esperanza’s margaritas…..Headed to the drunk thread…..

At a little Italian joint in St Paul.  Never had had this style of beer- Pistachio Creme Ale.  The nutty flavor of pistachio ice cream without the sweet.  I enjoyed it enough to have 2.

[TexasHooch 5167]

I'm being absolutely serious here when I say that this is how I define the start of the holiday season.

No. I am boycotting them until pastry stouts become a thing again.

[GreenspointTexas 9933]

Always great. So glad this sees distro in Texas now

pinthouse is doing $5 back for every $25 you spend on a gift card until the end of the year. stock up and save some money. 

[4th&Five 41917]

I meant to post a pic from the ABW Sputnik party yesterday but forgot to take any. Some of the variants were mighty delicious. 

[BurgleBro 909]

Scooped up Ommegang Everything Nice and Rahr BBWW.

Peticolas Wintervention.

Ommegang used to make an amazing beer this time of year called barrel aged adoration.. still sitting on a few from years back.  But it's discontinued.  The everything Nice is real good, but different. 

I can only find it at total wine.  Wish they'd build one in east Dallas smh

[Iceman 2964]

You'll settle for Dolphin Road and like it.
