Holy shit, I was not aware of either their Anniversary or their Abyss. It's off to the beer store for me. Thanks for the recs!

Definitely. All of their beers are solid B or B+s. I've never been to their tasting room where I assume they have more limited-edition stuff. But as for their standard offering of beers, all of them good, all of them are priced well, and none of them are super memorable. But that's fine, because if I see a six of…

As a stout/porter man, I cannot agree with you enough. This is the fucking worst.

A less awesome but solid and widely-avail porter: Black Butte by Deschutes. See also: Black Jack Porter by Left Hand, which is maybe not quite yet widely avail, but quickly getting there.

"Just position yourself under the bar and listen to me. Alright, here's what you're gonna do. You're gonna take all the weight on your neck. Then, you're gonna jam your legs down and hyper-extend your ankles and then shoot back up and lock your knees in place."

I could do the part where he lays down on the floor and gets dragged back to the machine. That wouldn't even be a problem for me.

Shocking that he's a republican and using that kind of language, what with racism not existing and all.

I posted this comment on the Gawker article, too:

"Twenty-six seconds, boom."

"Anthony Ciccone, one of Madonna's six siblings, has reportedly been destitute and living homeless for years."

Caroline Rhea's bit about catcalling on Dr Katz Professional Therapist. PLEASE ENJOY

An Amanda Palmer book tour. Wow that sounds...

Hamilton Nolan would have fucked it all up by putting something like "my grandma's pecan pie in bar form" as #1. Thanks for the good work here, Rob.

This was a fucking fantastic read. Recently watched the 30 For 30 about Chuck Wepner. In that, Chuck tells the story about how, backstage right before a joint TV appearance promoting the fight, Ali told Wepner to call him the "n-word" on TV, and Chuck refused.

"Where is the fish? I'm gonna bite it's head off!"

"Thank you for your service" is the "bless your heart" for military personnel.

I think Frontier is also now carrying Fat Tire. Fat Tire is a fucking solid session beer even in the most comfortable of confines. On a cramped jet? It's heaven.
