Comparing it to Pliny makes no sense as it's really drat easy to get and priced pretty fairly in the world of $10 bombers.ChiTownEddie posted:Well, I don't even think it is that. Pliny has a MUCH smaller distro area. I care mostly because what it says about the evolving state of craft beer and I hate being that guy who is like "why can't it be 3 years ago" but that's where I find myself.

LeafHouse posted:I don't think ShaneB meant that Pliny was itself a bomber. He was referencing the standard price of $10 a bomber. Yes, this. I don't know why more breweries don't use them more, because apparently people will pay far more for beer in them vs. 12oz bottles, even if it's not any better.

Bag of Sun Chips posted:Sucaba is best fresh. Or at the very least, don't age it more than a year. The same applies to all Firestone BA beers, actually. I've honestly loved all their BA/anniversary beers at over a year, but that's just me. I feel the anniversary beers are all really groovin at a year +. We cracked the only bottling (right?) of Abacus the other week at a share and it was a slayer.

I'd read Let's talk beer 4: You just don't know how to blast tapes.

bartolimu posted:Gotta disagree with this. The majority of nitro beers I've tried have been worse off for lacking CO2. Carbonic acid adds a certain bite that a lot styles - including IPAs and other hop-forward types - need more than they need a creamy head. Stouts are generally good on nitro, especially milk stouts. Other styles I'm very leery of switching from good old carbon dioxide. 100% in agreement. I barely even like nitro stouts.

I'm headed to LA later this month. If there were 2-3 places I definitely should check out, let me know. Atmosphere trumps strictly beer list, and decent grub and cocktails is helpful. TIA.

Furious Lobster posted:Where in LA specifically? It's a pretty big place and not only does one have to drive everywhere but also one should take the traffic into account in hopefully choosing an area that can be achieved with minimal fuss Centrally located around downtown-ish, but also am going to head west towards the beach one day.

XxGirlKisserxX posted:Anyone on here from Cleveland? I'll be there this weekend along with CCB brewmaster Wayne for a collab with Great Lakes. Want a recommendation for some cool places For beer, or like life in general? There's a ton of great food and drinking to be had in Cleveland. I would suggest Barrio in Lakewood or Tremont for custom tacos, beer, and margaritas and Buckeye Beer Engine in Lakewood for strictly beer and decent vegetarian options (but not great atmosphere). If you want some nicer dining you could check out one of Michael Symon's places, especially the more reasonably priced Lolita. A top-secret bottle shop is this gas station near the border of Cleveland and Lakewood, which is honestly better than any of the other bottle shops in the city.
