MD guitar co + beer  =

“Paul’s Perfect Pour”: PRS has brewed up guitars for John Mayer, Mark Tremonti and Carlos Santana – but now it’s making beer
Brewed in partnership with PRS' neighbors at Cult Classic Brewing, the Irish red & kolsch ale was masterminded to celebrate Make Music Day

Not content with crafting 2023’s best-selling guitar, Paul Reed Smith now has his own craft beer – and it's being pitched as “a pretty rad sip”.

Brewed in partnership with fellow Maryland-ers Cult Classic Brewing, 'Paul’s Perfect Pour' is a 5.2% ABV Irish red and kolsch ale (blend) that's sure to strike a chord with guitar and beer lovers alike.

Sadly, it doesn’t appear to be available to purchase online yet, meaning wannabe tasters will have to, ahem, hop over to the Cult Classic Brewing bar on Kent Island, Maryland.

this past saturday, i was running around Seattle and stopped in to Fremont's urban garden (AKA tap house).  had the 2020 and 2023 versions of their Rusty Nail, a barrel-aged spiced imperial stout.  the spices overpowered everything else so not my fav.

on my way out i grabbed a sixer of Head Full of Dynamite, their rotating hazy series.  this version featured Riwaka hops, and was canned less than 24 hours ago.  ridiculously hoppy, and delicious.

[Blow, me, Joey]

I was just thinking about this thread, and how it used to excite me so to post in here, the beers I would find and drink. Now, I am too lazy to do it anymore.

Plus, I somehow found it suddenly becoming overwhelmimg showboating and douchey to do it. Who cared what I drank? My palate might suck. Wait, a minute.

Kind of feel the same way. Though it's really no different than posting in a what tickets did you buy or what shows are you going to this week or what music did you listen to thread. Though technically this is a music forum and not a beer forum.

I just got back from a solo work/pleasure trip to the PNW. I went to a ton of breweries and drank a ton of beer. Sweetcell even took me to his local. (Thanks, dude!) But does anyone here care what breweries I went to (or what music I'm listening to?)

I like the scene reports on beer still, but surely in the minority
also there are so many breweries now, it's impossible to keep up   

but it's somewhat jumped the shark running after the latest concoction and queueing up for hours to get one beer of some special release (thank god)

I've decided the best beer is Slighty Mighty. It's low alcohol, low cal, and I can drink 1 million of them at the beach
