not sure what free AF is?
Its indicating it's not just free, but it's (as the kids would say) free as fuck.

AF may be one of the most annoying acronyms to surface in recent months.

Also, rumor has it Space has year's worth of Doom stocked up.
I always VISIT DOOMLINK for my Doom needs.

i fear that many here can't appreciate how awesome a reply that was.  POTM.

You couldn't be more wrong. That may have been the only beer my wife ever had her own supply of because I refused to drink it. Blech.

Though to her credit she has evolved and doesn't drink it anymore.

For many years, Celeste and Rhett went around shouting "DOOMLINK" to each other at random times. It doesn't get any more romantic than that in terms of 9:30 board romance, does it?

I'm assuming you were doing this while enjoying a romantic dinner at the Birchmere? If so, yes: peak board romance.

Hey Smackie, what kind of pizza do you want?  Pepperoni.

Hey Director, what kind of pizza do you want?  Double pepperoni.

Sweetcell, I'll watch your beers, go get the pizza.

Alright.

Bartender walks over, sees Sweetcell's 4 beers lined up....

That dude didn't take off did he?

No, he's getting us pepperoni pizza.

Oh good, that's a lot of fine beer there.

Sweetcell comes back with some fancy ass pizza that has pepperoni and a ton of other shit...

You had one job, dude.  Barkeep, come take these beers!

It’s 5.8% alcohol by volume, has a finishing gravity of 1.005 and is 3.36 pH. It is unfiltered, unpasteurized and 100% bottle conditioned.

Trillium Brewing Company:

-Plum Super Soak - 7.1% -
Super Soak: our Soak series amped up with a bigger malt bill, increased ABV, and twice the amount of fruit as Soak. While still sour, the higher ABV in Super Soak serves to moderate the lactic acid formation.

-Macaroon - 12.3% -
We teamed up with our friends at The Veil Brewing Co. to brew the latest iteration of our dessert stout line: Macaroon, inspired by the delicious coconut pastry of the same name.

Macaroon presents an inky, opaque black and leads with a rich, wafting nose of coconut, chocolate milk, hazelnut, and marzipan. A thick, creamy mouthfeel is complemented by flavors of Mounds bars, powdered chocolate milk, and a chocolatey hazelnut. Macaroon is decadent, rich and drinkable.

-Permutation 32 - 9.2% -
Permutation is our experimental series of small batch offerings, showcasing the unique visions and innovative concepts developed by our brewing and cellar crew.

Permutation Series #32 beckons with a powerful pineapple, melon, and orange creamsicle nose. A cantaloupe and pithy grapefruit palate with soft bitterness is complemented by a pillowy, full mouthfeel.

Bissell Brothers:

-Swish - 8% - Our Double IPA. Citra, Mosaic, Simcoe, Apollo.

***will be tapped after Swish kicks***
-Big Small World - 5.5% - Our first beer to feature a grain bill grown entirely in Maine, this APA also packs a globetrotting hop punch from Hallertau Blanc (DEU) Galaxy (AUS) and Motueka (NZL). The rise of beer as culture and art have enabled producers to source ingredients the world over, while selling the finished product locally, to a relatively small audience. It's a big small world we now live in, thanks to beer's newfound renaissance!

Oxbow Brewing Company:

-Cavern - 6.5% - Barrel-aged/fermented blonde farmhouse ale spiced w/ cara cara orange juice & zest.

**will be tapped after Cavern kicks**

Hope to see y’all then!

Yada
