Re: Let's talk good beer
Anybody know of anything good coming out today or this weekend?
I think DTC will have laguinitas born yesterday (again) on tap today as does Lighthouse liqours (in balt city). But i dont live near DTC anymore, kinda sucks, I liked that place.

Before you sign up look for promo codes (i didnt but wish I did) and if you refer a friend, you get $10 credit. So refer a friend. Matty you could have made some money if you sent ppl the link via facebook or twitter or email. But it doesnt seem to offer an inventory of beers. It appears that it will randomly send you an email about a beer or two and if you like it, they will ship it. Kinda bummed you cant browse an inventory but im interested to see what kind of beers they offer. --------------------------------- never mind. just got an email that they are limited to only a few states right now and MD aint one of them.

Re: Let's talk good beer
Yeah you get an email everyday, if you like the offer you just respond with how many you want. Haven't seen anything yet that interests me.

Re: Let's talk good beer
Prison City brewery -- apparently a really really good start up brewery in Auburn, NY. Lots of hype, ive read about them a couple of different places now. I dont think their beers are being distributed yet but if anyone see it on shelves, can you post where please?
--------------- finally found some fresh two hearted, with a somewhat tweaked label. Been a long time since I found some within 30 days fresh. rar - has anyone else noticed that their beer is now 60 plus days old on the shelves? They always had fresh beer (w in 15 days) but since they took over their own distribution a few months ago, i have not seen fresh rar in over a month. they all have early july dates. weird and disappointing. they were a go-to for fresh, juicy good local beer. I wonder if distributors didnt somehow sabotage them.

Re: Let's talk good beer
Re: most spent on a case: Has to be Tree House when i went up in April. Averaged out to like $100/case (if had been able to buy a case...Haze and Alter Ego were around $4.25/can). Next to that is Rar, which was $70-80/case of their monthly releases. Going to hit up Veil soon and that'll be around $90/case. And then Trillium in Boston can be upwards of $120/case. Mostly mixed cases, will drink some, gift some, trade some.
rar - I haven't bought any in a while, but I'll keep an eye out for it. My local shop usually has fresh, but who knows. If they're doing their own distro, they'll definitely be siding towards the shop that hock their beers the most. They used to go through Legends...which is one of the bigger distros for craft in MD. otm - Perfect Pour is an awesome shop. I get out there once in a blue moon. And now that you're in Columbia, you'll be frequenting Victoria's, Frisco's and White Oak Tavern more frequently. Auburn NY you say? One of my wife's sorority sisters/best friends is a cop for Auburn PD with her husband. I'll have to put in a request for a sampler. They are getting together in Denver next month, so I'm gonna see what she can bring back from there that we can't get here as well.

Re: Let's talk good beer
DIPA aged for 6 months in a gin barrel? Whhhaaaaa? And it seems to actually compliment each other?
https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/22843/206978/ has anyone tried anything from Breakside in Oregon? Im hesitant to pull the trigger on any internet delivery order with out having a good idea I will enjoy it.

Re: Let's talk good beer
I don't really know anything that reminds me of yeungling...it's been such a staple since I was able to have beer since it's so close to me. There used to be this really cheap beer called Lakeport lager that my friends and I all thought tasted similar, and it was super cheap. Not sure if that stuff even exists anymore since it's been 15 years or so since we got it for beer pong tournaments..

Re: Let's talk good beer
In addition, the placebo effect is strong. Yuengling is hard for me to drink these days cause I found out they brew with corn and corn grit, so now whenever I drink it I feel like I can taste corn. Really turned me off to it, even though I'm sure it's just in my head.

Yup. Tried "old fashioned 2016" on friday night. Is it only in DC or in MD as well?
