Hey you fucking cheap skates, there was a $35 option as well.

I'm sure that still doesn't meet the space: ounce/cost ratio.

What did $35 get you? A designated driver ticket?

I honestly didn't really pay any attention. Beer festivals don't fit my lifestyle anymore, if they ever did. My wife's not interested, my kid's not interested, and I'm not interested in drinking and driving.

9oz of beer, a welcome taco, and a teku.

Swap out the teku for a hummer and that's my every Saturday night.

Oh, I guess it's just "Insult Julian's Gadabout Lifestyle Day" over here on the forum. I see how it is.

you really should consider something more efficient - like a Prius, or a 30+ year old Saturn.

I recently bought a Prius 4 Touring and absolutely love it.

Have you ever ran the space: mile/gas/uber ratio? #notapproved

Some great $4 picks at Georgetown Paradiso happy hour last night:

Rodenbach Vintage
Firestone Walker Bravo (feeling it this morning)
Captain Lawrence Rosso e Marrone
Ballast Point Grapefruit Sculpin

heading to va beach, for the first time, coming up.  Neptune festival.  hope it is not, maria'd.  any beer places of note to check out, whether brewery or great beer selection store, while there?  I want to stop at green flash to check out a brewery of that size, but that is all I know.

Virginia Beach, is a beach, of the, poor.

Is Poor, the name of a brewery, or store?

commonwealth Brewery is making some killer suds out of va beach
Never been to the brewery ….but if their beer is any indication, I'm sure it's great

Virginia Beach is filled with even more skanky people than Rehoboth. Haven't been to Ocean City in 20+ years so can't comment on it.

I would skip Virginia Beach and just go to Sandbridge if I were headed that way.

The Green Flash in San Diego is enjoyable enough, if not awe-inspiring. I'm going to guess the VA Beach one will be comparable.

What beers are you currently enjoying?

I'm really digging this:


And after a stop at their brewery in Cooperstown, NY, i'm enjoying the mix pack from Ommegang. Especially love the Ommegang Ale.

Had a Founders Breakfast Stout on top of Old Rag today. A glorious hike. Eight years and 566 pages later, still one of my very favorite stouts.

I had the Dogfish 120 min for the 10 year anniversary week..I hated it

I'm a hophead and i hate it too. Dogfish was definitely a craft pioneer but do they do anything better than serviceable these days? Sad.

Speaking of high abv beers, i had a five ounce pour of Avery Rumpkin on my way home tonight. 17.5% abv. Hated it, but still one of he best pumpkin beers I've ever had. At least the rum somewhat covered up the horrible pumpkin beer taste.

This sounds like a Yada event.
