The cheap beers I regularly drank in my 20's: Milwaukee's Best Ice, Keystone Light, Miller High Life, Rolling Rock, Red Dog, Natural Ice, Busch, Schaefer, Schlitz, Piels, Hamm's, Coors Extra Gold, Lionshead, Yuengling Premium, Old Milwaukee, Narragansett, National Bohemian, Rolling Rock, Pabst Blue Ribbon, Genesee Cream Ale I drank several hundred gallons of every beer on that list, at least, and I regret every sip.

snack soul posted:that’s cool and i hope it works out for you. our closest LHBS closed a couple years ago thanks to covid I have a few but haven't tried them yet, I inherited them from the previous shop owner, here's one quote:5 lbs Briess Light Dried Malt Extract 0.5 lb Dingemans Cara 45 (45L) "our LHBS closed due to covid" is a really common story, ours is the last store in a very large metro area and I think there's room for a lot of growth. Hoping to expand it to a brewshop + microbrewery in the next five years.

Keep that in your back pocket if you want to go even further down the risk/reward curve!

One of the dudes I worked with was in charge of keg distribution at Bridgeport for years and year, every now and then he'd find neat old stuff and bring it in. Thanks to him I have a bottle of Bridgeport Old Knucklehead Barleywine that was bottled in 1994! Now that it's officially thirty years old I'm going to crack it open soon and post a trip report if I don't forget

It's technically not my job anymore but I *love* brewing and helping other people do it, and I've mentioned it elsewhere but I do home distilling too and have for years now so I can speak on it confidently. If anyone here wants to make something or even just thinking about it reach out and I will help, and definitely check out the homebrew thread in GWS https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3437782&pagenumber=1030#lastpost it's slow moving but you'd be hard pressed to find a better collection of brewing knowledge online And if you live in New Zealand definitely look into home distilling, it's the only place in the English speaking world where it's legal

they just raised taxes on beer in Turkey https://twitter.com/zamlargeldi/status/1744019673274876365 it's $2 for a tallboy of the universally available 5% Pilsner now and people are MAD... however they are also secularist libs who are too afraid to do anything but make 400 posts on a forum. $2 doesn't seem like much, right? well, on minimum wage you can buy 283 of them. there are no discounts for buying a 6 or 18 pack or nothin. let's say a 6 pack of 16 oz 5% is maybe $7.50 in America, coming out to $1.25 apiece. for minimum wage in a mid state like Ohio it looks like take home minimum wage is around $1500 as of this year. by this rough measure, a minimum wage earner in an average state could get 1,200 tall beverages for a month of their trouble. therefore, the American worker is around 4.25x as prosperous as the pitiable secular Turk. glory to America

is there an emerging underground homebrew or distillation culture?

i say swears online posted:is there an emerging underground homebrew or distillation culture? absolutely, a lot of folks in the linked threads are declaring their intention. it sounds like the consumer supply chain for homebrewing (ie someplace to order stuff online domestically in non-commercial quantities, as you cannot order this stuff internationally without great expense and difficulty) has been maturing since it first took off 10-15 years ago.

stocked up on a couple hundred lbs of base malts to get me through the year. just need to clean the rust off of the grain mill going to start with a philly sour before i brew the saison. i’ve been wanting to do a kettle sour for a while, but keep getting deterred by the longer sour mashing process. philly seems like a nice compromise for babby’s first sour

oh that reminds. here, enjoy some news from the main craft beer magazine down under https://craftypint.com/news/2831/beer-on-the-blockchain just the intro alone is a cognito-hazard quote:The blockchain. Crypto. NFT. To the moon. Web3. DeFi. listen to them explain it: quote:“[Edge] make the beer, we sell the beer with them, we split the profits, and then we take those profits to buy the coin back which spikes the price,” Jason explains.

A brewery who's stuff I liked said they would take bitcoin and released a bitcoin ipa but that's nothing compared to creating a pump and dump beer coin

I dunno what their distribution is like but if you can get a hold of one it's pretty tasty and imo a solid wheat. When I was younger I used to hate wheat beer and wheat bread but they've both grown on me. Hope you're staying warm It's 25 degrees out but the windows are open cause Im smokin'
