I like that Dogfish Head does the 12-ounce singles. So many breweries do either 22's or 6-packs (or 4-packs), which can be rough on beer that's either super-boozy or just rough on the palette, both of which are frequent characteristics of Dogfish Head.

Dr. Bronner's Peppermint should come with a warning that says "DO NOT MAKE CONTACT WITH GENITALS".

OD'd on weed. RIP Zane.

Especially true if your new companion is asking about the appearance of your ex. That's a pretty good sign that your new companion's greatest joy in life in setting up minefields and watching people walk across them.

Christ. You know, I'm all for calling out male privilege, white privilege, take your pick. But even middle class white guys with Good Job™ are capable of emotions and have to actually deal with relationships and the awkward conversations that can take part in them. It's not like ONLY straight white men are capable

The MLB began to become suspicious when Cosart was apparently seen showing up to Marlins games.

The Stig had a very emotional response to the situation:

Damn, I think I like your list more than the one I just did.

We are really all one species - race typically refers to skin color and physical features, while ethnicity refers more to cultural background, which is sometimes tied more directly to nationality and/or religion as well.

Supplication is arguably the best-known American Sour. It's #30 overall on BeerAdvocate with over 5,000 reviews. It's not surprising that a person hasn't heard of it, but it is rather surprising if someone specifically reviewing West Coast beers has never heard of it.

I've heard a few guys that you know get hard at the thought of "acquiring" a trophy beer rave about PtY. I've also had a few friends whose opinions I actually trust say that it it's basically a very good IPA but if you don't luck into it, it's not worth the trouble.

It's only from sales data by Mitchell and Ness. They don't have any Vols, Indianapolis Colts, or Titans jerseys. The closest stuff would be an Earl Campbell Oilers jersey or a couple Vancouver Grizzlies jerseys.

Christ, this is brutal. At 5, you at least leave room for at least one "I love this beer a lot, but only every so often" beers. With only three you've got some tough choices. Do you gravitate towards things that are mind-blowingly good, or things that are infinitely drinkable?

I don't understand how Pliny the Elder is still a "trophy beer", especially on the West Coast. Not to take anything away from it - I agree, that it is a great DIPA and no doubt earned its reputation. I don't know if there's a beer that the West Coast IPAs owe more to. It's super hoppy like many other traditional

This helped a lot.

Their normal one that won is just called "Breakside IPA", though they also have one called "Wanderlust" that's solid, and they've had a few one-offs. They also have a chocolate-chili "strong amber" called the Aztec that used to be their flagship and is absolutely fantastic. The bourbon-barrel aged version of it is

Breakside did win the Gold in the IPA category at the GABF last year, which given that the category is more than double the size of every other it's pretty much a "best in show".

I'd heard rumors about the name change being due to bottling, but finally confirmed it. I remember the Merkin being the first Firestone Walker I ever had, back when it was draft-only. And yeah, it's still one of many winter releases I eagerly anticipate.

Using this as another opportunity to insult Rogue for being a shitty company that leans hard on dumb gimmicks now.

God damnit just look at that asshole. Fuck.
