    At least you learned from my mistake (and BIF title) and guarded your nards.

    Oh no! I've never had one explode from heat yet, but I'll upgrade my packaging accordingly for a follow up box.

    I know those cold IPAs you've had already and I recall you saying you wished you'd had more, granted!

    Like @Roguer I do add beers that I don’t even try. I feel it’s good for the community and hood for the establishment.

    Hitting the mystery beer received this morning courtesy of @russpowell:
    [​IMG]

    My pour was incompetent. I somehow put too much pressure on the side of the can while attempting to pop the top and keep the label on, and wound up spilling a little down the side.

    Poured into a shaker pint glass, this was a cloudy and orangey shade of amber, with a pretty good sized off-white head. Nice lace. 4.25

    Nice, citrusy and melon-y hop aroma. 3.75

    Sweet, fruity taste up front, with a little undercurrent of bitterness. Like the nose, the prevailing flavor is of citrusy fruits and melon, maybe a bit of mango. 4.0

    Medium bodied, with a nice, soft, creamy mouth feel. 4.0

    I'm guessing this is some sort of hazy IPA, though it could also be a pale ale. The distinction anymore is hard to verbalize. Definitely a hazy version of either, that for sure, and a very easy drinking one at that. 4.0

    Yep.

    That 7.2% abv is not remotely present in the taste. A few of these and I'm on my ass!

    Thanks, Russ! I have now officially had a beer from Arkansas, and it was a tasty one!

    To emphasize why I think this is helpful, I was at Fox Farm today and a few beers available had not been added. I already don't prefer reviewing on my phone, but now I had to find the beer, discover it wasn't in the database, add it, and then review it - if I felt up to it at that point.

    Another aspect that I think others might not consider is that non-mods cannot add notes when adding a beer. Notes must be submitted and approved by a mod. But as a mod, I can add a beer complete with notes.

    So in addition to having to add beers to the database and then review them (with my phone, ugh), I also encountered a bunch of beers today where the notes weren't added. That's much easier to do on the computer than on phone (although not terrible via phone). If I (or another mod) added that beer, no one else has to worry about submitting those notes for review.

    I guess this is really a dual-post in favor of adding beers even if you're not reviewing them at that time, and reviewing beers using a computer. :grinning:

    The inspiration for that round naturally came from rounds previous, including some rather curious peninsula-inspired hints (I believe @BBThunderbolt was responsible for quite a bit of that, IIRC), and a ninja package I received (from @JayORear I'm pretty sure) that involved a rather explosive can that, well, ninjad my package while I was unwrapping the box.

    Straight to the nards.

    Wolfman's got nards. So does sandwich delivery dude. Or at least I did before that event. :stuck_out_tongue:
