SWTFYW Hints and Hauls!!!

Werd.
A few years ago Meijer used to carry the frozen Giordano's and quit for some reason.
Never seen these. Will report back.
UNO's wasn't successful here either.... sad feels. East of Chicago is good for,, beer..

 

This is fantastic. I'm glad you thought to at least include Gose, I would probably have spent a few days tracking down Berliners, fruit beers, craft lagers... but then again Mike might've called foul and I wouldn't have gotten to keep the Anna. I agree with others that it would've been great to see the Edge review, that had to be awful. In any case, looking forward to seeing where it goes next, and how you pay forward that challenge!

 

Soooooo.... wanna trade with me, say in late winter?

So much great shit out there. What's the deal? New job?

 

Prairie in SC now. Yes please!

 

I've been thinking about flavored stouts/Porters all day....thanks, Dino!

 

Yeah, new job in Point Loma.

 

this cracked me up!

 

I can't imagine San Diego will be bad for the wife's yoga business either.

 

That;s just a hobby of hers. She's a high school french teacher and guidance counselor by trade.

 

oh gotcha, i thought that was her primary business and fitness shows were the hobby

 

Ugh. I really hope not to drive a car again for the like a week. Last weekend to Minneapolis and back then yesterday to Detroit and back. Close to like 1700 miles in 5 days makes my eyes hurt. Need a beer.

 

Thanks to all that made donations and/or sent positive thoughts and prayers. I used the random.org random number generator and came up w/ @slobes for the winner. For those that didn't win, keep an eye out for another Alpine LIF.

 

who is slobes?

 

100 please! My mom is a college volleyball coach so I grew up watching that stuff and traveling with the team. It was hard being around all those ladies.

 

Got me some #properglassware thanks @Lehighace06

 

bunch of college volleyball players...I bet it was

And 100 is all yours. I mistyped @TheBeerAlmanac having 100 earlier, but he actually said 101...so you're all good.

Cheers

 

You are quick, good sir!

I didn't realize @TheBeerAlmanac was 101. Can I take 99 instead? I don't want to touch Matt in any way if I can help it. He's kinda ishy

 

Dem shorts.....

 

99 is now yours...I'm assuming you 2 shouldn't be touching anyway

 

Not knowing where it cut off (due to not watching the whole video), I will summarize the Edge experience for you:

It smelled awful and I knew at that point that I had inadvertently saved the worst for last. At first taste, it confirmed it for me. I then grabbed the can and compared @phishbfm's fantasy team to the Edge, because it was indeed- the worst. I compared the beer to President William Henry Harrison. He died 32 days into office, and I wished Icehouse Edge a quick death as well. I did my last phrase "Would that I were Bono, I would ban this beer." I think I also said that I would be blind because he's got glaucoma or some shit. I then chugged it and gagged a little bit. Then I filled my glass with Gose and opened the mystery bottle to reveal Hill Farmstead Anna. I then looked at the camera, said that I hoped you enjoyed this because I sure as hell didn't, said peace and then turned off the camera.

When I went to turn off the camera, it was already black and I was freaked out because the camera was not showing. For about 10 seconds I thought that I had just wasted all of that time and beer and drank all that shit for nothing. It was the worst 10 seconds I can remember. I probably would have just sent @ColdOne the bottle back because I was NOT doing that shit again. Then I breathed the biggest sigh of relief when I found my video. I realized then that it cut out early, but didn't know when and didn't care. Just thought I'd upload the video and hope that @ColdOne saw the effort and wouldn't ask for his bottle back. Phew!!
