Things that Beer Geeks say

"Parabola, BCBS, and KBS are shelf turdz bro"

 

You gotta drink one bottle fresh and put others in the cellar for at least a year.

 

"This brew is still very green."

 

Yes, of course sour beers exist.

 

While I agree that the guy in the first part definitely is a snob, being able to taste and smell things doesn't make you a snob... In fact I'd say you're being a bit of a snob in telling someone what they can and can't taste/smell in a beer!

 

In my experience, most BA's are supporters of GI since the Inbev buyout. Those who oppose it and have negative feelings towards Inbev, are in the minority. Check trading forums, "latest haul" and "what are you drinking now" threads to see all the folks going nuts over BCBS and its variants.

 

"Is this contract brewed? I can smell the contract"

 

A sad one that I hear too frequently is "lagers suck."

 

"happened to get there at the same time as the delivery truck"


"yeah dude I hate people cleaning out the limited releases"

(later in the same thread)

"but I only took six. one to drink now, two to trade, one to cellar, one for my tasting group and one for my other tasting group. don't want to be a dick and get greedy, ya know?"

 

I wouldn't know...I'm not a beer geek.

 

"Can I have a glass?"
"Can I have a clean glass?"
"Do you have anything other than a pint glass, perhaps a nice short stemmed tulip?"

and of course, the one I am currently saying multiple times per day: "When the fuck will Velvet Merkin get to Massachusetts?"

 

Here's another one (this one is annoying) -

"... First World problems ..."

 

Hey, you asked... I answered.

 

this is great!!

 

I don't think any beer geek would say that. Just you

 

The band aid flavor in this is excellent

 

"I think I see a tugboat in my lacing"

 

1. This pint glass is the incorrect vessel for this heffeweizen.
2. The foam is missing on this beer!
3. This IPA has no hop aroma and is obviously old
4. There is no lacing on this glass could you please rinse it out and repeat?
5. How Long have you had this keg, what distributor did you purchase it from and what temperature did you and they store it at?
6. My this IPA has a nice Amarillo, 6 row malt combination. Very balanced!
7. Why are you using clear growlers!
