SWTFYW Hints and Hauls!!!

Slow down guys, can't keep up with this thread

 

Just deleted 24 messages due to bad language and graphic details of what my digestive system produced...but hi all!!! May the new year bring you great beer and surround you with great people!!!

 

Made some cold brew coffee overnight and my eyes are about to pop out Strong stuff!

 

I want to squeeze the nect of someone down the hall until their eyes pop out, almost the same thing?

 

I have to say that was a helluva football game last night

 

i wish i watched the entire game. only saw the 1st half.

 

Meh

 

The game was crazy anbd I enjoyed a beer from GotPliny

 

I didn't care for either team playing but it was fun to watch coming down the stretch. Don't be such a grump @jshusc

I know we didn't cross post much of the Cellar12Days on BA but I enjoyed that. Might be fun to run something similar in April or May? MemorialDaze10 or something?

 

I think that could be fun

 

Might be fun if we did something like that over/around Memorial Day weekend and tie the choices into some activities or something. Do a 10 day cellar cleanse and maybe the person doing the picking would have an idea of some activities going on or throw some ideas out to make it interesting. Maybe the 10 days don't really have a specific "Day" assigned to each beer to help with flexibility? Some ideas like:

- BCBCS might be a beer on my list so do a VBS of me drinking that on the golf course
- Drink a MoaS while watching a Police Academy movie
- Day 6 - drink the highest rated beer in your possession according to BA ratings

Pretty lame examples but might you get the idea. Almost add some "challenges" or something to make it fun. I guess you're just drinking your own beer so you can do whatever the hell you want but it's kind of nice to drink down some beers that would otherwise sit in the cellar.

How is dry January treating you @zekeman17 ?

 

So far, so good, thanks--got a spring in my step, a gleam in my eye and extra money in my pocket.
For the first time in I can't remember how long (ever?) there wasn't enough in the recycling bin for me to bother wheeling it out to the curb this morning.
Surprisingly, Wednesday and Thursday nights (bar trivia and weekly Forest & Main visit) are tougher than the weekend was.
As part of some sadistic test to my resolve, the other night I decided to reorganize my cellar. Handled over 300 bottles, may have fondled a couple for an uncomfortably long time but I didn't give in to the temptation.

 

Well that is good to hear man! I am not going dry this January but have cut way back so I can be competitive in my work's Biggest Loser competition. No alcohol 2-3 nights a week and cutting back to just one night where I can enjoy more than a beer. Probably best to do that anyway.

I hope you and the rest of the crowd, can find it in your heart to bust out a possible VBS in remembrance of Bottle Share 3.0 - coming up on 1 year in a couple weeks!

 

Wow, how time flies, that was the 15th and 16th of last January, a whole year already. I may not partake in the VBS, but I'll pick out something nice and post a pic and it will be the first one I open and drink when my self imposed purgatory is over.

 

Fair enough

 

I think a proper @RayOhioFelton rant would breathe a little life in here on a Thursday.

I wish I was heading west to the land of FIBS and KBBS today.

 

It's not lawn mowing season, and pumpkins should be all gone by now so we'll have to go with either KBS vs BCBS or else somebody needs to say how great Hoppin Frog is.

i did see good things about their newest ba barleywine. didnt buy it though on the rof principle.

 

The ROF principle could easily be extrapolated to numerous other functions
