The Half-Acre thread (2018)

I don't think that'll be necessary. The limits are 1 higher than Benthic and my friend AND his mom will be there. Should be all good. Also, when she went around the 2nd time for Benthic there was no line. Had there been a line she wouldn't have gone through again.

 

Aren't you just a peach? Kind of surprised you have a friend at all, let alone one who's mom you can pimp out for more beer.

 

I'm pimping out my friend (her son) as well. Can't you read? Just keep feeding me, some of you are so gullible it makes this way too fun and easy. Really shows who the whiners are here.

 

See a few of you for Big Hugs, moms, mules, double-dips and balls deep.
This thread...was funny, gotta remember to check it more often.

 

I wish there was a package option with no glasses and stuff.

 

Agreed, but if the premium one has to pay to not have to stand in line is a couple glasses, think it's worth it.

I haven't amassed enough glassware for this to be a major problem yet, but I can see it being an issue down the road.

 

Yea. I wouldnt say i have a problem level of glasses. It more I dont want to pay 40$ for glasses I dont want. I have a pair in sytles I like. Dont need any more than that. I agree with you though. Will probably pull the trigger just to not stand in line.

 

I definitely have a glass problem. I have so many glasses that there are probably as many sitting under the bar as there are on the 4 shelves behind it. I think the next glass I bring back, my girlfriend will break it over the bar and stab me in the neck with it.

 

The struggle is real. I hide glassware from my wife in the basement. Ironically, that is also where she hides her pottery from me. DoubleNonSecret. Not buying this... way too pricey, and I'm too lazy to wait. Will just drink it on tap. Cheers y'all.

 

Psycho chicks are the best...

 

I agree. The element of danger adds to the excitements.

 

Great beer name. Or band. Google is too hard, so I didn't see if this exists already.

 

Did a fun-run-vertical last night of the current IPAs at HA: Desert Island - River Child - Dopee - Young Cobra - Space.
Only way to really note the differences between their IPAs although both River Child and Dopee remind me of Space Jrs in their malt bill and the hop balance... the Desert Island one, on its own has a nice tropical whiff, and was fine, but really shined once I had some of the salmon dish in my mouth. Young Cobra is growing on me... but I still think Animal Law and Dungeons were both better. Have a great rainy day, y'all.

 

Is BA Final Act still available at the Dojo?

 

Wrong thread buddy.

 

Unless it's a subtle shot at HA for Pipeworks ability to keep their BA beers in stock...I'm looking at you sold out in a few hours Benthic.....

 

Finally had Benthic '17 yesterday (from bottle). Got loads of coconut with some coffee. I liked it a lot more than '16.

 

2017 Benthic is perfect IMO.

Pastry stout argument? Just tell Josh Noel to get off my lawn.

 

The Benthic is bonzo good. Snagged two bottles towards the end of the line-event, had one two days ago. Also went to the Deth's Tar release event, and head-to-head, it's not competition for my taste. They need to quadruple the Benthic production. Now.

 

Absolutely agree. I was super excited that Benthic lasted past the initial line this year. If it gets to the point where I can safely arrive any time during its release day and guarantee my allotment, I'll be happy. I'm a sucker for coconut, and HA has seriously impressed me with their initial standalone BA offerings (Orin and Benthic).
