The Beer Thread

[Space Freely]

I'm assuming Space doesn't have cable, but if he did, I wonder how he felt about those beer commercials last night during the world series?

You don't need cable to get Fox.

Do you mean the Sculpin commercial? I thought it was weird. I thought they should have gotten a better looking spokesmodel. The commercial itself whas kind of boring. What did you think? Were there other commercials I missed?

Yeah... just quite interesting to all of a sudden see a Sculpin commercial when I'm typically used to tapping the Rockies or Clydesdales during those types of sport events. I thought the commercial was nothing special, there was also the very sentimental Latino veteran commercial with him and the boys crushing Modelos.

Also, when did mini commercials during the telecast start happening?

Is anchor steam really the first US craft beer?

[grateful]

It was either that or Sam Adams, no?

depends how do you define craft beer.

i recently listened to a great interview with the head brewer at August Schell which was founded in 1860.  they are definitely "craft" in my books.

so, what do you mean by "craft"?

Jim Koch for some reason likes to take credit, but Sam Adams was 1984 compared to Sierra Nevada in 1979.

Anchor has them both beat, 1896.

The Latino guy was the first Latino astronaut. Not sure if he's a veteran, though he very well could be.

Yuengling claims some skin in this game.

[hutch]

Oh come on..yuengling may be the oldest American  brewery but craft?

again: how are you defining "craft"?

if we're using some nebulous "you'll know it when you see it" definition, then there isn't much point in this discussion... a man sees what he wants to see and disregards the rest.

[grateful]

I'm sure the for a long time in its history, Yuengling was well below the artificial production levels that some people use to define micros.

NOVEMBERFEST 2017
This was really good last year....spent most of my time at The Veil and Answer tables
but Penn Druid, Aslin, Commonwealth and Ocelot will likely be sampled too

Managed to fit in a fly by in the middle of an awesome Autumn bike ride

Sorbet - Aslin and Marshmallow Eyes - Commmonwealth...OMFG!
VA is really producing some insane beers.

honorable mention to Cinnamon Streusel Hornswoggler - The Veil Brewing Co

too little time and too many good beers
easily could have had 10 others

I define craft as a beer the brewer wants to be good...
