Pittsburgh - New Beers & Local Breweries

Good to see that over the span of two little pages, this thread has devolved to what the old one was like.

 

Such a child. Yes, I have actually. I understand that you were trying to point out something (to lessen my character) that you have no clue about and it is a fail. Were you involved at all? I know you weren't. But nice effort.

Lets get back on track. Why do you have an issue with people discussing bottle shops? I know several of the people here would like things to get better. Having a discussion about it should be a good thing.

 

Trying once again to get things back on track, @PSU_Mike why didn't you pursue the bottle shop idea more? Did you ever look into the ability to open up one with two entrances separated by an air well?

 

Rivertowne:

On draft this weekend for a limited time at the Rivertowne Pourhouse

BREWMASTER’S RESERVE - RUDOLPH RED (8.1%) -High Gravity

Aged in our cellars for the past several months, this medium-bodied holiday red ale is delightfully pleasing with a subtle cinnamon finish and just enough kick! Raise a glass to Christmas in July!

 

Lets get it back on track.

 

Who derailed it by bringing up my homebrewing for no reason whatsoever as usual?

 

Anyone try BG's Mosiac Pale ale yet?

 

I'm guessing that would just the same Rudolph's Red that is a winter seasonal but has just been in their "cellar" since then. It has the same ABV and notes. Seems like a fancy way of selling old beer to me. Also on the topic of Rudolph's Red; I've noticed that is actually labeled a malt beverage and not an ale if anybody knows whats up with that.

 

Like you brought up the old traffic topic for no reason before he said anything? If all of your comments are going to be jabs at people/beers/places there are going to be jabs back.

 

I did not.

 

Had a good laugh at this. East End 'growler recall':

There was absolutely a reason for bringing up the old traffic topic.

 

So much aggression on here today. Go have a non Mosiac beer and relax, it's Friday. I personally think Mosiac has a great flavor profile when done right, but to each their own.

 

Who has done it right?

 

Other half did a great Mosiac.

 

pretty good

 

I'm watching the little bambino solo tonight so drinking isn't in the cards for me, I'm afraid. Maybe once he goes to sleep I'll pull something out of the cellar.

 

I still haven't cracked my Ta Luego so that might be in the cards for me this weekend. My buddy wants to bust out a bottle of Hunahpu as well and who could say no to that?

 

I've not opened my bottle of Ta Luego either. Maybe I'll try to fit that into the weekend.

 

The 17% abv has kept me from popping it thus far. I'd rather share it than try to hammer it down myself.
