Used to be they just gave you a big glass of water when you sat at the bar, and they refilled it without you asking when they saw it was getting low.
Gravity pour cask in most of the US should only be a cool weather thing. If you can't maintain temps below 65F, don't do cask.
Gravity Pour, why they hell couldn't I remember that...serves me right for being half on BA half working ha. Yeah, as much as I love cask, gravity pours aren't something I enjoy in Texas when it gets crazy hot. This event that I'm referring to though, was cask in name only. I still maintain they didn't go through any kind of secondary fermentation at all. If memory is correct it was a DIPA, and I just laughed at people trying to get growler fills of it, and walked out after having one.
I can't imagine a drinking a DIPA over 60F, especially one that has zero carbonation. That's just a shitty, bodiless, pale barleywine.
Adroit Theory did a "serial killer" pack... If anyone ever had a beer called "Bloody Mutilated Kittens", that'd be the line for me.
My problem with Adroit Theory is that all the extremely named beers they make are nothing I want to drink, and they're also too expensive. I used to name my homebrews after metal lyrics, and "Lacerated Sky" would be a 6.5% hoppy red ale.
When breweries/bars don't offer sample pours/tasters for patrons to decide what they want for their full pour. If I'm overpaying for beer I at least want to be sure that I'll enjoy the whole fckng glass.
Dragons Milk White Stout rated 85 on BA https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/335/372609/ and this https://www.beeradvocate.com/articles/7455/white-stout/
How about promoting dog friendly and kid friendly to drive in customers? I don’t go there to see a black lab sleeping on the concrete floor or minors moving around the ale house. Maybe that’s not a thing anymore is it?
I suspect an aww shucks moment. If it had been intentional I’d be drinking at a reputable brewery free for life.
