The Beer Thread
Being half Irish and teleworking on St Patrick's Day means you're required to drink an 11% bourbon barrel stout in the afternoon, right?

Good thinking. Perhaps the dog gets the other six ounces since he's underweight.

yes
Your Dog may be Underweight
It appears they may have Hopslam AND KBS on at Fair Lakes Whole Foods. That's where I should be teleworking from.

$14 crowlers at Aslin.
Space, I hope you were wearing a diaper when you read that news.

I send them my best Nancy Reagan.
I did once pay $10 each for crowlers of Crank IPA at Cycle Brewing in St Petersburg, but that's likely one of my top 3 IPA's of all time and better than Aslin.
I had me a pint of guiness…$3….

I had a 12 oz Hopslam on draft for $5. I win.

I'd rather drink a Guinness.

There was a time when all my daughter would eat was packaged vegan corn dogs from Trader Joes. Now she has pronounced that she will never eat another vegan corn dog and we have a freezer full of vegan corn dog packages.
The only time I ever drink a Guinness is when I'm on vacation in St John, because that's one of the few stout options available there. And I always choose the Guinness Foreign Extra. Oddly, even though it's tastier and higher in abv (and pricier here on the mainland), it's actually cheaper there than the other Guinness variants.
The location that I had the Hopslam (Whole Foods) also had Guinness and several rare-ish Bells stouts on tap. I would have chosen any of the Bells beers over Guinness.

If you break down the cost of that Hopslam, you're actually paying more per ounce than crowlers at Aslin. Watch that wallet Space!!!

Sure, but 12 oz of Hopslam was more than enough. Six ounces would have been preferable. 32 ounces of any one beer…way more than I'd want to drink in the amount of time I'd need to drink it fresh! So that would be at least $9 more beer than I would want!
and here I remember when space hated hopslam, and would so gladly proclaim it you . . . ah, the good ole days.

When did I ever say I hated it? It's very good, not great. There are better DIPA's for cheaper six pack prices (I picked up one last night, Union Double Duckpin.). It's hateworthy in a sense that it gets more press than it deserves at this point, but it's like Kobe, you have to give him legacy props and he can still put up 30 on a good night. Then again, Hopslam never raped anyone, so it's not even as hateworthy as Kobe.
