Ersboda? When I was there (saturday) they had a decent number. If I'd known it was rare oop I'd have taken two! Or I probably wouldn't have since it was fuckspensive but I'd have felt better about it. Damn tasty, anyway.

 

[swizzlenuts]

I have a question. How the fuck does Sweden get Great Divide, but we don't in Wisconsin?

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Move to Philly. Best distribution on the East Coast!

 

[swizzlenuts]

We get Three Floyds and Bells though!

I had a Samuel Adams Boston Lager yesterday, this stuff is swill.

Isnt there a case law in Penn? Or am I thinking of another state?

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

There's a law that states when you buy directly from a brewery you have to buy at least a case worth (24 12oz, or 12 22oz). But that doesn't apply to bottle stores.

Though PA has its share of stupid neoprohibitionist laws.

 

[swizzlenuts]

Don't you have to buy cases of beer though too and aren't they expensive?

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Nope, I never buy cases of beer here. All the bottle stores sell singles, six packs, etc.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Oh. I have always understood it to be that you have to buy by the case, which is absolutely ridiculous.

RiA...Boston Lager is not swill. It is a terrific, highly sessionable lager.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Oh. I have always understood it to be that you have to buy by the case, which is absolutely ridiculous.

I wouldn't be surprised if up until relatively recently that was the case.

Have any of you ameriniggers tried glögg? It's awesome imho, some day I'll make my own Highest Quality stuff and not settle for Glöggkryddextrakt (E12345).

Tonight I might get a wee bit tipsy for the first time since ???

Lock the windows, you have kids now.

is anyone here a mead expert?! thinking of buying my brother a real nice bottle for x-mas. he's all into it after his trip to europa

 

[dorian gray]

^that shit is foul

 

[Demilich]

The only mead I've really found for sale around here are the following
A) Trafalgar meads, which are all fruit-flavoured so I've never tried them.
B) Moniack from Scotland - nice. first one I tried and I'd buy it again.
C) Rosewood Estates - thinner, more wine-like, still good.

I'm no expert, but I know what I like and B or C are decent bets. Nothing "real nice" though
