In! My experience with Discord has been only since the Pandemic, and I'm old and accidentally keep trying to call people? So good luck with that poo poo.

We mostly use it for text chat. The voice option is there but we don’t use it. Not sure if that’s the reason you’re hesitant but figured I would mention it.

At the moment I am just way over extended on chat rooms (for both work and socially) and am not sure I have the time or energy to add a bunch more. But if poo poo goes tits up here I will definitely join.

This place has been on its last legs since I joined in 2001. Anyway, my wife bought that Baerlic dad’s day pack for me and my son finally picked it up and delivered it.

Mt Hood is one of the main reasons I’m here and I’ve wanted one of these North 45 glasses for a minute. The beer is good too.


Gonna add pics when I’m not on a phone

You should jump in anyway since you're the (only?) PNW person still regularly active?

I do but I work in a clean room lab with limited reception. I'll join anyway but likely won't be very active.

I've been largely absent from both the forums and this thread for various reasons for the past couple years, but I may jump back in on the Discord especially if this place does disappear (though I'm definitely feeling some chatroom fatigue). This thread and community has been instrumental in my beery education and I've made many good friends here, and even though I'm drinking a lot less and I stopped chasing whales years ago, I hope to reconnect a bit with some of y'all soon.

On a side note, I didn't even know that there was an exodus from TalkBeer until way after it happened as I largely only cared about the FIB thread. No idea what happened to cause it - anyone know off-hand?

As far as I can tell (I mostly stuck to the Chicago thread), it had something to do with the OG owner selling, then the new mods either letting egregious poo poo get posted OR the new mods shutting down people's 1st amendment right to be bigots? Or something in between those two options.

There's almost no activity in the non-regional boards there as far as I can tell, but the Chicago mainstays still post on occasion.

I stayed out of the toxic topics forum, but that's about on the nose - I don't know all the full details either and here's my take: it seemed that a certain user (one of the only right wing people on the site, totally fuckin insufferable imo) reported other TB posters disagreeing with his views on the DT thread... but these TB posters were not doing/saying anything wrong.

Wasn't happy with how the mods essentially ignored his "reports" and escalated things to harassment/doxxing/endangering TB posters andddd yeah

Oh yeah almost forgot, that same user also went over to DDT and eventually got banned so :psyduck: I stayed the hell out of the drama and honestly don't care enough to know the full story

New phone & a work VPN is making picture posting a pain in the rear end. Imagine a crisp, refreshing lager in a frosty glass with a topo map of Mt Hood on the bottom.

Fun side note about Baerlic: a couple of weeks ago when I was downtown at one of the BLM protests I saw somebody walk by with a Baerlic shirt on, then recognized the person next to him as the guy who's been delivering my orders. We've only interacted from about 15 feet away as he walking back to his truck but I yelled "Hey, you bring me beer" and he waved.

Haha, man, I was just thinking about UGHH (and HHI lol). I am happy to see sandboxautomatic still trucking though - I came across a bunch of old autographed merch recently (murs, non phixion, el-p, etc.) that I got with purchases there back in the day

As do I, it looks like Lowtax has signed over the SA assets to someone else, so I guess the site should be safe.

Sorry, air and Mahoning. I pulled the trigger too early...

https://twitter.com/OffcolorBrewing/status/1276579554694488065

I'm pretty sure this is the earliest they've released this because usually for some loving reason it's always coming out in like September.

Maybe it's because of the pandemic but releases lately have been great from every brewery I care about. I can't even keep up. Half Acre just announced an old school pale ale today (along with that new Keeping Together bottle) and with my stock, I have no need to head out for a few weeks at least...
