    My posts were hyper specific to the point of including details you thought were unnecessary.

    Corroborated by the fact that two days after my post goes up the exact changes brought up are changed.

    Doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to figure out what happened.

    So the brewery opened an account here, addressed the issue on this thread (above), refunded your mug membership (in full), and apologized to you? Yet you can't let it go? Do you still go back to the brewery? I haven't been there yet but people on the thread seem to unanimously post that they are very friendly with good service. Dude, what are you trying to accomplish now? The change was made. It's over.

    I had let it go. I made two posts at the time and one of those was to address questions. Yesterday a poster said something to me, so I responded. If you have a problem with me having a discussion with people who address me you should just block me, it's really easy.

    For someone that wants the situation dropped you seem to be the one that's not letting it go.

    Do you go back to the brewery?

    Yes, that's why I have no idea what this whole idea about "making my case is" as though I have some agenda to bring down Counter Weight. I've never said I don't want people to visit Counter Weight, and I never would. I want them to succeed and have been very supportive of them since they opened, both with my purchases and with my posts on here.

    I had one bad experience and let people know about it. These threads would be terrible if people only talked about their good experiences.

    Look, my issue with your posts is that you actually named the person at the brewery AFTER the brewery came on this thread to address the situation, refunded your mug membership (in full), and apologized to you. Most people at this point would be a little bit more gracious toward the other side and that's how things get better between parties. Sure, angry responses might work but it's not the only method (and usually not the best way). I just feel you need to re-read their post to you and try to read your own posts from a third person perspective. That's all.

    Yeah, I love how they release cans. You can expect something different every weekend and they don't drive up hype. I hope it remains this way.

    Nice Beer Cans, don't you think your name/avatar combo has gotten a little tired if you're going to play moral police around here?

    I don't think SenorQ ever had the intention of rehashing the issue. Just a heads up to fellow BAs about his experience in a for-what-it's-worth kind of way. Don't see why he's getting so much heat for being honest and informative about his visit. I didn't feel like he was being malicious, but that's just my opinion. And hey, I love Counterweight and have never had a bad experience at the brewery or with its beer.

    Drinking a Vulture Culture right now, and I have to compliment its dry nature. Unlike other NEIPA, it has a great bitter finish.

    Vulture Culture is probably the best IPA in CT right now. If not very close to top 3 with Spectrum and Hooker NoFilter.

    Hookers Super Duper Double Citra was outstanding.

    Oh and try that Common Anomoly if you are there. It's killer. Looks like the kriek version is still on tap, I bet that's amazing too.

    Saw on Twitter:

    We’re excited to be sending lots more Workhorse Pilsner out into the world starting this month!

    Assume that means distribution?
