Mannnnn

 

Fuckin sucks, I'm wishing the happiest thoughts for you

 

From earlier:

 

Thank you. I’m super calm about it. My bosses on our conference call said they’ll pay everyone for about a month at the most. So I’ll be good until about April 13th, after that who knows.

 

Having Hoplite by black project. 4.5% sour wheat with blood orange and cryo columbus and this is just straight up stellar. Big fan.

 

I went to Black Project back in November, literally everything on the tap list sounded good... so my wife and I split a flight of the entire taplist lol

 

I was going to go to Denver in May but now’ll have to wait.

 

I hadn't ever really been til maybe a year or so ago, then my wife's brother moved there and we've gone like... 4 times in the last year. It's a super cheap and quick flight from LA and it's such a damn fun city, lots to do. Definitely re-book your trip when all this madness is over!

 

Sometimes I forget how good Alesmith Speedway Stout is

 

I wonder how many breweries will keep their shipping mode after things settle down.

 

I know the veil started and suspended shipping operations because they sold out of shopping supplies in like 12 hours. I’m not sure people will continue the shipping but I could see online ordering and delivery options continuing.

 

Not that they can't it's just an additional cost, employee and space for storage. Plus shipping in the summer is not ideal for beverages in the south when you could have a beer sitting on a porch in the sun when it's 100+ degrees. I know I've had wine shipments stalled as the winemaker wouldn't ship when it was too hot.

I know Tired Hands does Dudley Direct, I'm not sure when that started but I don't know how they handle shipping in summer. Its all very possible though.

 

Baffin Brewing is starting delivery tomorrow, and I am in the radius of them so I’ll definitely be ordering to help support them in this mess

 

Fuckkkk thats awesome. Would love to get some mango unchained.

 

I’m just buying a keg tomorrow. Cleaning everything today and hooking lines up.

 

What’re you getting?

 

Bingo Lager

 

I wish I had a home brew set up at this time. I’d be trying to make some hop water like lagunitas.

 

Trying to go through the old beers in my fridge so I don't drink all of my new beers in a week. Having a Celebration

 

I have beer for months and months, just not fresh IPAs and stuff obviously. But if getting other options becomes harder I can definitely get creative with meal pairings or what I cook with.

 

I was in the midst of going to the gym regularly and eating healthier right before all of this shit started. Typically, I'd limit drinking beer to Thursday-Saturday.
Drinking a minimum of 2 beers every night while playing games with friends or watching movies is certainly not helping any of that.

 

Dude same.

 

Somehow I’ve kept my dry Lent going except for one day where I felt bad and ordered some Dovetail delivery to help them out.

But yeah looking forward to Easter lol
