    On a related note, I've noticed a lot of outrage on turd advocate by people offended by the term grass beer when referring to turds that don't get picked up...

    Yes you are . A turd is a piece of shit. There are better ways to refer to good beers that you fine by chance.

    Saw Goose Island Honkers Ale from Oct. 2013 on the shelves recently.
    Basically the whole UK beer section is dust covered. Lots of great stuff hiding under the cobwebs.

    2011 Old Stock is hanging on out here still, probably the price point, but such a great brew

    Interesting. The local place near me has had this for the longest time and nobody ever buys it because it's so damn expensive. I may have to give it a try.

    It's nice that a word can be used 100% incorrectly and if someone has a problem lighten up, it's just sarcasm. Well I think people who misuse words like that are dumb fucks, which is just a sarcastic way of saying brilliant, awesome and upstanding individuals.

    My friend just found seven bottles of Founders Better Half on the shelves in metro Detroit. How is that possible? His name here is TypsiYpsi if he sees this.

    I would trade for some Sweet Repute in a heart beat. I only had one bottle of it and I was kind of drunk and don't remember it that much.

    About two weeks ago, found two Proprietor's on the shelf of a place I thought had a good bit of foot traffic. Picked up both.

    The sales guy said his rep found a case of it and asked if he wanted it. He didn't seem to think it was anything out of the ordinary. I asked if I could buy more than one bottle and he looked at me kinda weird and said 'yes, of course'.

    At $7 a bottle here, I'm not sure why anyone would ever buy it.

    "Lighten up" means "take it more seriously," right?
    I just don't get your outrage over people expressing their dislike of something. Why do you have to overreact?

    Pretty brilliant to state that "turd" does not imply that something is shit-like, since it doesn't merely imply it but actually connotates it. I tip my hat to you, young scholar. Now lighten up.

    $10.99 for 4pk of Founder's Breakfast Stout this last weekend, bottled mid-2013 maybe? Absolutely delicious.

    $30.00 for a 2013 Eclipse (12yr EC) in a random liquor store a few weeks ago. Was out of place and all by his lonesome. Still sitting there today begging to be consumed.
