    Try explaining this to an angry, thirsty, and entitled neckbeard who is hot and sweaty from the record transfer from the recliner to his Rascal to hustle down his driveway to catch the Beer Truck.

    You could have just said Neckbeard and we would have assumed he was sweaty, along with everything else you said. Especially the entitled part.

    Brevity, braaaah, practice it.

    At least the releases are being done at 11am when traffic is still bearable. It kills me when Pipeworks doesn't open till 3pm on a Friday for a release and by then it's just not worth the trip. I work in the West Loop and it's taken me over 45min to drive roughly 7 miles to get there. If they opened at noon or even 2pm that would help tremendously. Lunch time pickups are great to avoid traffic.

    Yeah I wish they were open earlier on Friday's as well. Such a brutal drive haha. One of these days I'll make it out there on a Friday.

    I am becoming an old crank like my pops. I'll admit it. The whipped cream on the beer affects me 0% but still got me all triggered and pissy.

    Shaun is the king of adjuncts so I’ll give this a shot. But I am darn near ready to throw in the towel on the style. Hopefully More can make me a believer (haven’t had Tired Hands to be fair)

    I guess you could say Shaun's milkshake is...bringing all the boys to the yard.

    You didn't like Blazed Orange Milkshake???

    Super Gnarly Milkshake was pretty bad but its my last can. Milkshake Nawi wasn't really a "milkshake" but a beer with mango/vanilla milkshake characteristics, which I really enjoyed.

    Not really. It wasn’t bad but it wasn’t easy for me to finish a can of it due to sweetness. The Mikerphone and Windmill ones I’ve had haven’t really been what I’d think of as a milkshake.

    "King of adjuncts" is really hyperbolic.

    He's good, he's not close to the best.

    Not to add tires to the fire, but I was a little shocked to read this as well. I wouldn't think his stouts would be the most clamored for of the various adjunct stouts out there.

    Course, if @Nbrock24 thinks his are the best, can't fault him for that.

    Blazed orange restored my faith in the style. Usually too much for me. Interested in the reviews of this one.

    Strawberry Marbles is insanely delicious. Sharing a crowler right now.

    Not a fan of Strawberry Marbles. It had a weird bitterness.

    I don't know about nationally, but I think he's the best adjunctor (adjunctivist?) in the area.
