The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

#VBS Christmas Entry #-I can't remember any more...

Really good... A changeup from the lineup tonight, but the Spruce was subtle and added a nice bitter note.


Cranberry Juice anyone... Not a fan (maybe my palette has been compromised tonight?)


Had this one for a little while. From a trade a while back with @Dave_Treat. Thanks!

and, @Lehighace06, this is the cap from the Bolt Cutter. Does this tell you anything?

 

I wouldn't think so, but I'm by no means the most experienced around here.

 

Feel free to ask me my opinion @Lehighace06.

 

Oops... Guess I stayed up late...
#VBS Christmas number something...




And then we went back and finished off all of the leftovers...

BTW--Bolt Cutter was much better after breathing for a bit...
BTW II--I need to go to bed. My kid wakes up at 6. My wife isn't happy. That means I'm getting up with the kid. Damn.

 

Banana Boat in the first picture?

 

I think I may never ask your opinion on anything ever, but thank you for offering.

Happy to hear!

Sad to hear. Though I had to get up with my kids, they are nice enough to let me sleep until 7:30.

 

As far as I know, $20 is the "suggested" price from SN, so I would be led to believe that $16 is much more the exception than it is the rule, sadly

 

Also... come on people! The ugly sweater LIF is still going until later today, and as far as I can remember, only myself and 2 other people entered! Get more ugly sweaters out there!!!

 

I was just coming here to post a reminder about the Ugly Christmas Sweater LIF ending today at 5pm CST. You are correct, only three valid entries so far. Here they are (click on the name to be taken to the post containing the pic)...
Ninjembro
edhizdeid
Valrxman (He turned this into a wet t-shirt contest instead of an ugly sweater contest)

Clarkson still owes us a pic of him after he tried to submit one of his dad...

Hoping to get some more entries!! There is still time.

 

@mbmiche

That Bolt Cutter is still hoppier than hell, that's the bitterness you're getting.

Had one about a month ago because I laid mine down and was a little disappointed the hop bite hadn't subsided much.

Don't think it's oxidized at all though, just still crazy hoppy - metric shit ton of Cascades dry-hopped from what I understand.

 

After reading the label through foggy and slightly shifty eyes last night, I do recall thinking that the hops were a possible "root cause" for the unpleasant taste. As it warmed though, the Bolt Cutter did become much more palatable. Still not as awesome as I was hoping for, unfortunately.

 

My children must have been in the holiday spirit... They slept in way late today--7:30. 4 hours of sleep was much better than the 2.5 I was planning on!

 

Ok Russ, you caught me. That was not a pic of me. Here is the real me:

 

Am I never going to live one joke down? Sheesh

 

At least I'm getting some laughs out of these! Scary pic.

Still trying to figure out if the cat is real or fake. By the looks of his/her/its fingers, they are applying quite a bit of pressure on the cat's head. If that cat is fake that makes this pic even more scary.

 

Her name is Lucy, and you watch what you say!!

 

Not if you keep pulling shit like you did on my Untappd yesterday! I admit though, that was actually pretty damn funny.

Note that this comment, though it provides a name, in NO way confirms "real or fake"

 

In other news, I'm already having my Day 2 of Xmas from the 12 Days BIF, and it's a great one:

 

So Ill be shipping my Non Summer Sixer next week, to someone who hasn't posted in this thread in almost two weeks but has "liked" posts in the thread this past week.

 

Some interesting sounding releases coming up from Troegs barrel aging program... I still want more BA Troegenator though, damnit!
