Meh, mich better beer at Snallygaster.

I had better beer at Shelter tonight. Monkish and Bissell.

this weekend, a pilot in Poland took to the skies with an important message: Make Beer, Not War. https://www.flightradar24.com/blog/make-beer-not-war/

^ that's some impressive flying

idiom's upcoming beer contains three cutting-edge innovations: thiolized yeast (GMO'ed), incognito (new hop extract) and phantasm (white grape concentrate powder that boosts thiols). 

"Announcing our newest beer: PARTY ANIMAL. Brewed with Omega Yeast Star Party thiol-boosting yeast and a HUGE dose of Citra Incognito in the mash (instead of traditional pellets - again, more thiols), then littered with Centennial hops throughout the boil. Once we cooled down a bit, we whirlpooled with another HUGE dose of Citra Incognito alongside a healthy dose of Phantasm powder from Phantasm NZ to help boost thiol production.  When fermentation was complete, we dry-hopped with a blend of Centennial and Mosaic Cryo hops for massive tangerine, white grape and rich, ripe berry notes with a dank resin nuance. Stay tuned for other thiol-driven experiments coming down the pike from Idiom Brewing Co.  Releasing 6/10.  Get some!"

don't we all

Free Rose at all NRG establishments this evening…

That's the sound of space mapping out the nearest metro stops to each location.

Well I guess we don't have a Rose thread…so yada was right to put it here, little more deets

We support the right to choose.
In response to today's Supreme Court decision and to support women's rights to make their own decisions about their reproductive health care, tonight all Neighborhood Restaurant Group restaurants will be offering a glass of Rose wine on the house and encouraging donations which we will direct toward organizations that provide health care and defend reproductive rights such as NARAL and Planned Parenthood.  Neighborhood Restaurant Group will match a percentage of the donations that we receive. We welcome you to join us in this small effort that we hope will be impactful.  If you have any questions, please reach out to Stephanie Babin at stephanie@neighborhoodrestaurantgroup.com

Dude, I have Monkish and Fiden's in the fridge. I aint drinking no rose. Time to go walk the dog and cook dinner, so I can have my half beer with my dinner.

Aslin's new pre-9:30 show Forum meet-up spot opens tomorrow.

https://www.popville.com/2022/06/weirdos/

Also, there is a Finback tap takeover at Churchkey tomorrow featuring one of the best stouts I've ever had. And I have to be in DC tomorrow.


Hmmm. I know which of the two aforementioned options I'll be choosing.

Yikes, Churchkey is my current pre-show spot for 9:30. On the rare occasions I pre-game.

I guess I like walking.

Not a big deal for me at all…often park that far from the show as I don't like paying for parking

and I have it on good authority that you pregame at Whole Foods
which is only a block from church key

Do they even serve beer on tap at that Whole Foods anymore? Not the last time I was there.

There is a new Whole Foods at 967 Florida, a three minute walk from the 9:30 Club. I haven't been there though so don't know their beer setup.
