    Why are all of the brewery threads missing the month in title?

    According to our overlords it makes more sense to have 150+ page annual threads

    See you in a year.

    I do want to mention though, since this thread won't be getting reposted each month with updates I forgot to make the month before, please report the original post with any changes that you think need adding to the original post, ie that ramen shop going out of business in 4 months, @rozzom taking offense to the inclusion of mcdonalds, etc

    Yeah that poor ramen place. Wanted to like it but just doesn’t quite work. Without trying to kickstart that ramen argument from the thread looking for veg restaurant recommendations, isn’t opening a beef ramen place sort of like opening a burger place where every patty is made from pork belly. Should we remove it and McDonalds and call it even?

    I don't know how you can say that Grimm's beers are dialed in when they've only re-released one beer brewed on the new system in 6 months, they're doing the same thing as OH because that's what the drinking public is interested in, constant new stuff. Don't get me wrong, I do really enjoy their beer and I like their tap room much more but it just seems silly to bash OH for what everyone else is doing as well, sans 'tose I guess.

    Not totally bashing OH, I still drink it often. But I've enjoyed every single Grimm beer I've had this year, compared to about 60% of the OH beers I've had. Maybe "dialed-in" isn't quite right, or maybe they have them dialed-in before releasing? I lived in L.A. for six years before moving to NYC and saw the same thing happen with Modern Times--releasing literally more beers than you could ever remember, let alone appreciate. I recognize that some people like "constant new stuff"; I'm just not one of them.

    Yes, I wish they would be more consistent with naming but IG says they're giving Infinity -2 + ONE the Daydream treatment.

    That makes sense, but they also specifically mention lactose in most (every?) 'Daydream' description. No mention of it for Double Infinity Daydream.

    The can label says it's an "Oat Cream IPA"

    That means there is Lactose in there.

    OH is definitely getting a massive discount by buying lactose in bulk. Still waiting for all lactose everything where they just dump some beer into a vat of milk.

    Oh wait, this isn’t Trillium.
