    I was actually just trying to make a clever joke by quoting Jen, because she said not to quote her. Funny? To be honest I'm not that interested in this. But if it provides entertainment, then I will do my best to try and get some, in hopes of being shut out

    I think SDReaper deserves to be on the ban list for not liking avocado

    I asked for no guac on my adobada taco today. Paired it with viet speedway since that was the grumbler special fill. What now?

    The fact that Ms. Wilson liked your post now makes me scared I made the list. =P

    But in hopes of regaining positive vibes.. Rye DDBA was pretty damn delicious.

    Don't worry, I don't have nearly enough power to ban anyone. Ever. Despite conflicting prior reports :slight_smile:

    My guess is that Ms. Wilson has good taste in food, like she does beer. Speaking of which Highland Park Brewery opens in two minutes. I got off early from work, might head over there to cool off with some fresh Bonkers. Then head to Salazar for some al pastor tacos, with guac

    The pastor tacos at Salazar are bomb! I suggested to the co-owner that they serve HPB beers but I'm not so sure that's going to go anywhere. Seems like a perfect match to me--Hello LA + Salazar tacos!

    Tacos look legit. I approve. I also had my Bonkers but from Select Beer store

    I'm interested in not only trying this place because the food looks good, but their sweet throwback AngelFire style website:

    Taco confirmed infected with guac. IMO send back, get refund. =P

    Here's the thing though: a bit of conflicting info from alesmith:

    https://twitter.com/AleSmithBrewing states double java SS was the special whereas the website states viet SS was available as well. I still have some leftover from last fill though the info was perhaps misleading?

    Yeah, I noticed that as well so I had a taster beforehand to confirm which one it was. Not that either would have been bad.

    Has anyone asked them about the reasoning behind 3 oz. pours for all the Barrelworks stuff? Was surprised to find that out last night when I stopped in.
