    I got turned in to WTFUntappd on Instagram for a review. Little do they know that 90% of my Untappd reviews are making fun of Untappd check-ins. Gained me some followers though.

    Modelo is better than your favorite smoothie sour.

    Enegren makes some of the best lagers in the world.

    Wow just did a little research on these guys, sounds like a local treasure. Gotta love a brewery that has an Altbier as one of their flagships!

    Blasphemy! Unless you don't like any tropical fruits/fruit juices. Those things are freaking delicious! But I completely understand how some people don't consider those beers at all.

    Milkshake IPAs and fruit puree hand grenades, I mean sours, are total garbage, I'll drink stuff like Milwaukee's Best Lite before any of that gimmicky bullshit

    Triple IPAs are wrong.

    Just go to jamba juice and buy a modelo, mix it up, and there you go.

    Damnit. No one told me there would be science in this thread. Now you're going to make me go back tomorrow morning and read this sober. And I was going to drive to San Jose to pick up a new turntable.

    I have run into The Green Man most of my life. I live in a beautiful urban forest -where I grew up- and know those images intrinsically. It is an old pagan/Druidic legend that pre-dates the Romans, and the madness of the back and forth of Catholic and Protestant leaders from a collection of European locales. The Green Man is a powerful image that promotes rebirth as a cyclical homage. I love it....

    Ass Clown is actually the name of a river in North Carolina.

    Reminds me of Hunter S. Thompson's plan to rename Aspen as "Fat City" back in the 70s to protect it from developers

    I heard an interview with one of the founders it was pretty cool to hear. Drink beer think beer episode 35. Not a bad listen if you’re interested.

    You definitely know it.

    We have Bigfoot. No one that I know says anything against that iconic American Barleywine.

    Now to look up Ass Clown river. I'm willing to learn.
    Edit
    Struck out on that Ass Clown River thing.

    After listening to that I had the feeling of really wanting to sit down with him and drink his beer and talk beer with him. Such a cool, inspiring guy.
