    Its just troll hashtagging. All the new rage. Get with it uncle grandpa.
    I jest. Someone mentioned they'd like to see updates of the waterworks tap list every so often. So when im there, I try to snap a photo. Yea that butte xxvii is delicious. And im picky about bourbon barrel aged things. The guy working wasnt from that department and was covering- got a full pint of it for $6. Steal. My new tactic. Only get a draft when that guy is covering.

    I find it sort of entertaining that a website that uses more acronyms than anywhere else I've seen could be complaining about the short hand nature of those hash tags. You practically need a language manual to read the trade forum.

    ISO: PtE, BBPt5, BCBS, BCBBW, BCBCS
    FT: SoS, HT, ADWTD, C5, O&P, CD14, AR b4, BA Cake

    I'm not happy about needing to know those acronyms either.

    Honestly there have been times when I've had to Google them. Putting in something like "BCBBW beer". Can usually figure it out that way.

    But yeah, some of them are way out of hand. I think my favorite is BdBdB. Bonus points to the first person who knows what it is.

    Brouwerij de Barbandere Bavik was my guess.
    I then cheated and looked it up.
