NBS BIF #15 Hints and Hauls: Was it Over When the Canadians Bombed BIF #14? HELL NO!

That's like trying to look through lasagna. IJS.

I still heart you.

 

I feel you, but that is an egregious use of an alternative MAGA universe.

Still in!

 

I had Triple Cuff several times and it was fantastic. Think I rated it 4.75. They won 1st place over PtY in the triple IPA category at the 22nd annual Bistro IPA fest. I was actually at Wondrous drinking when the owner/head brewer got back from the fest with his gold medal. They are easily my favorite local brewery and they've not even been open a year yet. I even went through all the archaic fuckery to upload a pic of the brewery to this website (never again!).

Early February is traditionally triple IPA season around these parts due to it being SF Beer Week and the yearly release of PtY, so I drank a bunch of triples in Feb and Triple Cuff was definitely in my top 3. I didn't bother making it out for PtY although it was readily available all over this year at most taprooms that get Russian River beer. The actual brewery release was postponed until this week due to Covid, so thinking of taking a trip up to the new Windsor location to try it.

 

Dear test subjects,
This is a test to see if something is working as expected. If you can see the image above, and if clicking on it takes you to a higher resolution version of the same image, then it's working as expected.

This chart is an attempt at comparing my scores for beers against BA average scores for beers. If the blue points are close to the gray diagonal, then I rate similar to the BA average.

 

I often suck at tests, but this one passed with flying pixels!

 

Which is inevitably the answer to the question, “why drink crap beer”

I have added a LOT of beers (196 thus far) to this site, with most of those for Bare Hands and Transient.

I have added two pics - TWO - of the beers I’ve added to this site, precisely for the ….. skullduggery required to add a pic. No person should have to work that hard to post a picture of a beer.

 

Non-Canadian television related hint #3 which doubles as a haul hint:

My target has rated/reviewed less lambic than I have. He or she seems to quite like it from the ratings/reviews I’ve perused. As luck would have it, my hobby during the pandemic was hoarding lambic. My target will be getting a couple bottles of lambic in his or her box, including one or more from a brewery he or she hasn’t rated/reviewed anything from yet.

 

And just like that, I’m out.

 

Hmmm...I have to take the time to watch your clues. Maybe that'll increase my chances of getting your delicious lambics.

I'm out!

 

That's a lot of High Snot, and not much Low Snot in yo house. Do you just not rate the low snots?

 

How do you know it's crap until you drink it?

 

An interesting way of putting it -- yeah, I probably neglect the lower end of the snot spectrum.
