King Sue

What's all this OJ, bullshite? PSue and KSue are straight up mango juice. I would've loved a bottle this time, as I gots a disc golf tourney tonight. Nothing like a bomber of TG for the course.

 

Could be your palate. Lets not over analyze this. It's either delicious or it isn't. It's beer, different batches are never identical for numerous reasons.

 

ISO King Sue if anyone has any for trade

 

Really?!? There are no varying degrees of deliciousness that should be considered? I like it. We should collaborate on an app that does away with any qualitative and real quantitative ratings and just go Siskel and Ebert (Ebert and Roeper for you youngsters) on all beer, thumbs up or thumbs down. No comments, no pictures, no descriptors of the beer beyond style.
It's not my palate, it's delicious and different, many have said the same thing unprompted. My opinion is that it's not quite as good because I prefer the flavors (which I perceive as orange juice) of the previous batches.

 

If you want a real discussion, you probably shouldn't start by telling others that their opinion is "bullshit". That's just begging for an argument with people that assign no probative value to your beer memory.

 

What this guy said.

People perceive things differently.

 

The same person can perceive things differently than they previously did as well.

 

Okay...how about this...Going to go ahead and call BS on anyone saying it's different to any previous batch. Yes, it's good, really good, all the flavors seemed to be on point. I'd say this beer went from 10/10 to 9.5/10. Still delicious, and the same. This still justifies the effort needed for this beer, I'll still drop everything to go grab a couple bottles in Hudson next time as well!

 

Meh. I view people who say it is the same as last batch most likely being disingenuous and having some ulterior motive. It's possible that there is someone out there who honestly thinks this is essentially the same beer.

 

Same beer, new rating?

 

I saw maybe one guy say it was the same flavor. Most people making comments about it being similar are saying they enjoy it just as much. Not the same thing.

 

"They're all liars" and "how can it be the same beer and still slightly vary between batches" are interesting positions. Both boring and interesting. At the same time.

 

Saying it went from a 10 to a 9.5 would say that it's "different" wouldn't it???

 

I'm bored at work...

 

...depends on your definition of subjective differences between batches.

 

Those are two different numbers. That's a fact, not subjective.

 

Apparently there's a limitless supply of Ben Wyatt gifs out there. Good to know.

 

Let's shift gears.

It took them how long to perfect this batch and you guys think they're going to be brewing this "all the time" now? I don't buy it one bit. I would set the over/under on the next King sue batch at 7 months.

 

As far as I know this is their first full attempt at King Sue post Mike.

 

That depends if you're accounting for inflation.
