This Brew Totally Rocks

Inviato da Starbuck il Tue, Aug 3rd 2010, 8:53 am

No- seriously- they use rocks to make the beer.

What, you don't believe me?

It's on the Interents!

Hmmmmmm. I see a craft project in my future.

Yay Beer!

Inviato da Starbuck il Fri, Jul 30th 2010, 9:16 am

In a victory for any human being with actual taste buds (its a joke- you'll get it in a second), A brewery in the Czech Republic has won a major victory over a similarly named usurper from St Louis.

You know- These guys

Yes- I know the St Louis folks started using that actual name first, but c'mon- here's a great moment for both the little guy, and a little class.

A Fine Time to be Leaving

Inviato da Rollerballer il Fri, Apr 23rd 2010, 8:57 am

A nice article in the Star Tribune today about all the great regional beers from elsewhere that are finding their ways into the Twin Cities market.

I hope you enjoy them, Minnesota Collective Contingent!

I Canna Drink Much More O' This!

Inviato da Starbuck il Sun, Apr 11th 2010, 8:51 pm

This just in: Tactical Nuclear Penguin The 32% ABV beer from Scotland's BrewDog brewery) is set to hit our shores. Only 400 bottles though- and only in NYC and California. Bastards.

These are the same craze highlanders who came up with Sink the Bismark, currently holding the world's strongest beer at 41% ABV.

We wants it, my precious.

Update from the Beer Czar

Inviato da Starbuck il Thu, Mar 25th 2010, 10:52 am

To keep the rabble at bay, I will periodically tell you things about the beers I'm brewing for this year's festival. The content of these notices, as well as their frequency will be arbitrary and entirely subject to my whim. Don't get cocky, kid!

So here's the status today:
Done: Jamil's Evil Twin- the hops on this thing might just split your pallet in half. Watch yourselves.

Done: Scottish 60/- A pleasant, lower-alcohol "session beer". Got a taste of this one, and I'm very excited.

In The fermenter: Bavarian "Drag Me To" Helles. This one will be a close race to the finish, but it should be ready. A typical German lager- hopefully with less butterscotch than last time.

Still to come- I think I can squeeze in one more batch of Breakfast Stout before time runs out.

Beer Foamy!

WHAT?!?!?

SO apparently it's illegal to brew beer in your basement, or in a room used for any other purpose in Minnesota. Who knew? Certainly not me.

But I'll plead the 5th on whether that is relevant to me.

But apparently I've been breaking the law every time I go to Iowa with a duck on my head or eat a hamburger in St Cloud on Sunday... and some of the other dumb laws will not be discussed. No office- that's not a chicken... why?

Beer = Civilization

Inviato da Starbuck il Fri, Dec 25th 2009, 1:17 pm

"You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer."

-Frank Zappa

Turns out he wasn't kidding- it looks like you can't do much of anything without beer- even invent the wheel. Yay, beer

NOW it looks like a rec room!

For those not on twitter, a link to some of the stuff we got at the auction. You might notice something familiar there.

Everything happens for a reason, and this photo may be the reason I "won" the drawing. Or can I do better? heee heee heee
