Pittsburgh - New Beers & Local Breweries

That Simpsons and TMNT were the best. The only other game I liked to play was bubble hockey

 

Who's going to Real Ale fest Saturday? Just saw this on the Twitters:

 

Your math skills are a bit rusty.

 

How so?

https://www.google.com/webhp?source...-8#q=how many gallons are in a bourbon barrel

 

How many ounces are in a gallon?

 

Fuck...

Double that number. Nearly 3100 bottles assuming they bottle it all (which will never happen).

 

That also assumes that each barrel was filled to the top of the bung hole (ha ha) and there was zero loss in transferring, racking, kegging, bottling (which will never happen). SO MUCH ABGM THO

 

bout 3.50

 

Damn Loch Ness Monsta!

 

@Stigs where are you or wait is that @voodoobrewery that comes out when ABGM is mentioned. I am so confused.

 

Perhaps you've banged your head too much.

 

Think it's a tad more likely that you just don't get the reference.

 

Bottles of Hoppy Birthday and Duet and Shadyside GE. Says Green Flash right on the bottle though.

 

WHERE IS NELSON?

Edit: Separate thread notes that the GF bottled Alpine is better than the GF kegged Alpine, which we (and others) received back near PCBW.

 

Anyone get to BG and try the new porter Mr. Automatic? I stopped by to grab a few growlers and bumped into @dtx00 and @thebouch01. Curious to hear what someone else thought out it.

 

@randylangford Any idea if other GE locations are expected to receive bottled Alpine?

 

Pretty good? I won't be able to make it down there any time soon. Hopefully they will still have it flowing next week

 

I thought so. Big flavor for a sub-7% beer. Huge roast and chocolate with an appropriate body for the ABV. I liked it more than Eddy Fitz.

EDIT: I should add I only had a small sample. Need to have a bigger glass to be sure but thought it was pretty on point.

 

I w

i wouldn't count on it. At least not this week.

 

Looks like there is going robes fatheads and new Belgium collab in the near future. Sour I think.
