    Not "whale" enough.

    The beer has to boost your sense of self worth in order to be included.

    I love it that you are looking for 6 "guys". I hate to tell you, but I have a better cellar than most of the "guys" I know:slight_smile:

    Sorry, but your cellar is not old enough...or something.

    In his defense, he does say "people" in the initial post. I find myself almost calling people "man" on the forums from time to time, just based on the large majority that seem to be males based on their screenname, picture, or something similar. Bad habit, but I'd assume (hope) he doesn't mean anything by it. Most guys I know would be delighted to find more women that share in their hobbies.

    I know...lol. I was more giving him crap than anything:slight_smile: Although, I will say when I first got into beer, I was overlooked/underestimated for a lot of things...

    Oh for sure, I don't doubt it. I've introduced my girlfriend to a lot of good stuff, and she still gets weird looks from the guys at her office (the majority of the office) when she mentions where she's been/what she's been drinking. Best think you can do when you're being overlooked/underestimated is whip out something from your cellar, and make 'em jealous!

    That tactic used to be my jam. Doesn't work anymore as I am quite notorious in my area now:slight_smile:

    Hey guys- this thread got more out of control then it was intended. Sorry!! Honestly just wanted to get together with some PEOPLE (see what I did there...haha) and enjoy some good beer. Always down for that- "whale" or not.

    Love meeting new people and hanging out. Not sure if the 28th will happen or not anymore...im not the "exclusive" type....I share with people who care and people who don't care about beer all the time at my place. With BVDL- just thought it would be cool to get together with some rarer bottles---didnt mean for it to come across the way it did. Sorry guys (and girls).

    Honestly, most of these threads go off the rails; that's part of the fun! Hope you get your group together; Milwaukee's a great town for a beer share!

    I think the general rule around here is "where there are whalez, there are trolls" :grinning::stuck_out_tongue:

    This is tame compared to the old trade forums before replies were locked!

    Don't worry as a female you should have no trouble finding condescending men to pull this on in the future lol. Its kind of amazing the things guys say to my friends who work in brewing, serving and retail side of craft beer or even in local homebrew clubs just for being female considering most of the ladies I'm referring too know more about beer than your average BA or consumer ever will including myself.

    That look of being gamed by a "chick" though is a glorious thing to behold, like their manhood is throwing up on the inside. Kinda wish I could do that myself tbh.

    Pics or it didn't happen. ;-)

    I "know you" from all the Ridgeview posts on Facebook, glad to see you joined Beer Advocate. Seriously, I'd love to see cellar pics. Cheers!
