So IMU's point was that some people like certain flavors and others do not. With great insight like that it's pretty obvious why he's the smartest guy on the board.

I used to know a club promoter named Eric Iinsist. He also wrote for a zine called The Coolest Retard.

Definitely BRick's mult. He consistently misspells Israel in his posts.

I'll admit I was wrong. I'm sure I've mistyped that multiple times. Unfortunately, you can't blame your bad thoughts on mistyping even though you try your hardest with your "How do you know what I am saying by reading what I am saying" stance that you often take.

There is - different flavors are brought to the front of the palatte at different temperatures. But I don't want this thread to degenerate into another pissing contest so if you don't think so I respect that. 8)


I apologize - I tried to prevent this from escalating...

That's not my mult. I'd argue further, but there is no way you would actually admit that you were wrong as we learned in this thread.

I'd be a lot funnier if I did it.

If the New York Times bestseller list is any indicator, the day where this phrase becomes common parlance is nigh!!!

i had no idea that my services would be needed here. i thought team darko was a good idea in the mike north thread, but evidently being team darko is a commitment that will drag you all over this damned board.

Because they wouldn't be able to comprehend it anyways? You're probably right.

What is the desired result of saying that?

They are out of their mind charging $40 for tickets. If you really want your beer exposed to the masses, make this much more affordable.

Binny's has beer tastings, and they only charge $10.

Just finished off a Round Barn Brewery Cocoa Stout- I liked it, not much aftertaste for a stout, and did have that hint of cocoa. Very little head on the pour (sounds like my sex life...)

Had it last weekend. Not bad at all. I couldn't figure out what made it all that different than lil sumpin. The abv was very slightly up but that was about it. Maybe they used a wild yeast strain or something.

Very nice. I'm a fan of their Ommegang Abbey Ale. I do want to tour the brewery some day when I get to Cooperstown.

Was up at the Dells this week and stopped at Woodman's in Janesville on the way to stock up for the trip. Picked up a few of New Glarus's Unplugged brews.

1. Smoked Rye - not a good sipper but I could see this one being really good with a plate of ribs. Not a ton of rye taste to it but certainly a ton of smoke.

2. IIPA - Imperial IPA - a good blend of hops and citrus. Certainly not as good as Hopslam but a good rendition.

3. Imperial Weizen - This was my favorite of the three. Good mix of banana and wheat blending into a cloudy hefeweizen. High alcohol content but you don't detect it until it is too late.

Depends on who it is that responds.

Panther responds, I'll ignore it.
OKC responds, I'll just call him my big brother and tell him he is cool with me.
CGS responds, I'll just make fun of her and use the term 'vibe' somehow.
Darkside responds, I'll go back and forth with him.
Boilermaker Rick responds, I'll laugh at his feeble attempts to make some jokes that very loosely have any connection to the current discussion.


What if I respond? No smiley/joking/wink or any of that crap implied in my question.
