How did you know where I purchased my beer. And really, Whole Foods prices beer the same as anywhere else. Mine does, anyways. And I am proud to say I have never purchased organic sunchokes there, only beer.Vitriol posted:So ordering some of this as soon as I can! Unfortunately it's seasonal and way out of season. I was lucky that my Whole Foods got a random case in out of nowhere.

Today I passed by this establishment today and I couldn't help but think about Ray getting into the "champion spring" business. Also the sign that says "Ray" looks like the kind of sign you'd at a classy drinking establishment in the late 80s.

That said, it's not as though the setup really matters with story arcs in Achewood. The Great Outdoor Fight comes directly from ChatSack, after all, and I can't say enough good things about Nolan from the Internet coming out of the woodwork in the SaniTaco arc.

Yeah, one of the things I like about Achewood is that you never know where the story is going to go. It's like the opposite of that movie 9 where you could tell what the characters were going to do before they did it.

Well it's true you never know where it's going to go, I'm just sayin' you always know where it's gonna start. e.; and really the best part of SaniTaco was that Lyle had absolutely no regard for the sanity of those tacos. And Ray's reaction to it is hilarious. Lyle just Did Not Care. poor and weird fucked around with this message at 09:23 on Mar 6, 2010 |

Tenfidy is available at the Green Frog Acoustic Tavern in Bellingham, Washington. At least it was a few days ago when I was there. Thicker than Guinness? Thicker than Old Rasputin?

I used to drink Guinness all the time in Southern California, where generally speaking the only other decent beers you might find on tap came from the Stone Brewery in San Diego, and there were only so many times I could wait an extra hour to sober up from Arrogant Bastard before it began to wear. When I moved up to Portland I told myself that I wouldn't order myself a Guinness at a bar unless I had tried all the other micro-brews on tap first. In other words, Portland has forced me to give up Guinness.

I was very pleased with it, and I recommend anyone who can find it give it a try.

I refuse to believe that any bar in California that serves Guinness doesn't also serve at least one local or regional microbrew.

McGravin posted:Huh, I never had much trouble finding good beers while I was out there visiting a friend, but then we didn't go to many bars, and one we did go to was a brewpub, and so had their own beers as well as a pretty good selection of others. But maybe you just didn't go to the right bars? What a coincidence. I had that the other night too. It actually does have kind of a milky taste to it, but in a really good, delicious way. I recommend it as well. Who would have thought Achewood fans are also good beer fans?!
