SWTFYW Hints and Hauls!!!

How many Beer Trucks went by today??

 

made a small little promise i would cut back on shipping for now - the boss hasnt been happy about it so gotta lay low until she forgets haha

 

Or you get really really drunk and have access to growlers no?

 

Like we said. If you ain't first, your last.

We didn't get far. The kids wouldn't hold my beer cause they were fighting over who got to be walker and who was gonna be Texas ranger.

 

haha the promise was made prior to that....i broke the promise

 

Check out page 230 for the saga of @CTJman on a Unicorn and the cat and the homeless guy.

 

Don't know, got the blinds closed because the reflection of the sun on the snow was making it difficult to nap.

 

Aleight guys... A lot to catch up on and first off I'll apologize for the pics if they are not upright lol the ex took the computer so I'm left with just the iphone but let's start off from the beginning... Strong beer fest, amazing times were had as I was lucky enough to get in a full three hours before the public to get my drink on. This was also a good and bad thing as by the time a lot of my friends and people I knew got there I was shit faced. It opened at 1 and I got there around 9:45 to start. Between having 40 tickets for 4 oz pours and that no body ever takes the tickets, I was in for trouble. Then compound that with a build your own Bloody Mary bar compete with bacon for stirring? Sign me up! Left there about 3:00 with the help of some friends to the light rail where we rode to a park and ride where I was then driven to another bar before somehow making it home, waking up at 9:30 pm with the lights on and thinking it was am and I was late for work...

The next day was a recovery day for the most part with a few beers for my good friend Daniel's bday here at AZ wilderness. Hello presidential stout and Hawaiian burger...

Monday started out great with this Early in the morning getting ready for the annual Sierra Nevada disc golf tournament. I may not have done well but I had fun! I continued this day with a dark beer theme and bright some BOMB! Along with me for my beers for the day for drinking. I'm not a huge hoppy fan so even though it was all the pale ale and torpedo I could drink I chose that route. Probably a part of why I didn't do so great lol. Anyways last snow was delicious!

Tuesday I hosted a beer dinner for elevation brewing that went pretty well, food was the best part though my boy Fred is an amazing chef...


Wednesday was a night helping out a friend with the brewery he reps northwest brewing. Not a whole lot today here, beer is average. Later that night though we to a favorite spot the attic for an Avery brewing event that was actually really fun, got to try one of the first fruity beers I can actually say I could drink ams enjoy, Avery Lilikoi. Passion fruit ale that was delicious.
Thursday was probably one of the funnest nights as I had my firestone tap takeover go off with great success! Reginald Brett was the star of the show for sure and was the first to blow, Jeffers showed up (brewer for barrelworks and first employee at firestone) and made the night a blast. Here is me up in the bar with him that night and a pic before I got to busy to be able to take any pictures. What a great guy he is and what a good turn out we had.


And he gave me a signed bottle of el gourdo!

Friday was my santan tap takeover where I may have gotten a couple mr pineapple t shirts for a certain @zekeman17 and his other half that was probably the highlight of that night.
Saturday may have been the best night I can remember in a long time, started off with the most ridiculous firestone barrelworks dinner that I got to take out a beautiful girl to for a first date that couldn't have been better. Check out this menu! I won't post all the food pics cause there is just too many but it was the best beer dinner by far I have beer been to...

After dinner, we had a tasting and we invited Jeffers over along with Dr. Bill from stone over and they said of course!?! Needless to say, had to pull out some good stuff for them, they ended up opening every barrel works beer and to top it off Jeffers went into detail then about how he created each one and what he thought about the beers. This was absolutely a one of a kind experience.

Here were my contributions, I finally drank that BVDL from the ex! Hate to say that beer was really good despite where it came from lol... BVDL > 4 hands Madagascar > vanilla rye.... IMO, but the degarde sours were amazing. I hate to say it @blue-dream but if you tasted black raz it might give atrial a run

I took Sunday off work, here is some of the empty kegs from this week, I feel like this is good pic to show how disorganized and chaotic I felt after this week was over...

And yeah this last week has been trying to get everything else back in order and maintain some sense of normalcy. I have some boxes ready to go out soon as well if the weather will cooperate. Sorry I have not been as active but I should be back on track now for the most part again

Cheers

 

cue Zombie music

I'll jump in for the March Madness game!

Also, if anyone thinks there may be shenanigans, just draw before teams and regions are decided? Instead of actual college, you'd get West #2, Midwest #6, East #11 and South #15...then we plug in teams later...

 

DUDE - thats a good f'n time right there.....were you throwing kegs through the uprights? and I agree - that black raz bu - one of the best dg beer's or fruited beer ive ever had!

 

Wow--I'm exhausted just reading about you're exploits!
A smile on my face thinking about Mr Pineapple Ts (and T-shirt weather in general).

 

Those bud light football uprights have gotten me in trouble... I can't bring myself to throw them out as they are such a great source of entertainment. I haven't thrown kegs through them but I have had the stress relieving experience of getting to throw empty kegs at stacks of out of code bud light and that was pretty epic.

 

AZ beer week was really fun but really exhausting... And yes you are taken care of my friend, when is your party again? Just wanna wait to pick up mr pineapple for you so it's fresh.

 

Good beers all around for sure... Notice the obligatory peanut butter beer I managed to squeeze in lol. It's becoming a trade mark for me

 

Party isn't until August, plenty of time.

 

They will be brewing it through September so I'll make sure it's fresh

 

never had it - any good? the reviews are all over the place for that one haha

 

I'll go the opposite of this, if somehow we have any trouble getting to 16 (or to 32), I'll jump in to make sure we have enough.

I feel like I'm entitled to a small amount of sports betting that (regardless of how my losses are paid out) doesn't count as beer trading... this way I'm letting the universe decide for me.

 

Not my favorite but it wasn't bad, I feel like this one has the taste I wish belching beaver had but the beaver has the better nose wow writing that just sounds bad... Anyways yeah on that note, how about the weather today?

 

It did, right after @Dicers left for Boston, sat in his leasing office all weekend.

edit: of course @Dicers beat me to this, that's what I get for going out to lunch. Seth, when do you get back to HOU?
