Brooklyn Black Ops Barrel Aged Stout. At $15 for 4-16oz, 11.x% abv. this is hard to beat. Fucking tasty, one of the best beers Ive ever had.

Ok 3 of these might have been a bad idea
Re: Thread O'Booze REVISED!
Also a hell of a deal considering it’s barrel aged. Had that once in 2013 but it’s not easy to come by around these parts.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
Re: Thread O'Booze REVISED!
I just happened on it by accident, Brooklyn Brewing has gotten a bit rare the past few years in these parts. I think 1-2 is probably a good limit to set for a Tuesday. My buddy was over watching the GA election results. He tried one and it was too much so I took his and 3 of those on top of whatever else I had is a bit much.

Re: Thread O'Booze REVISED!
I hardly smoke weed at all these days. Maybe one puff a month on average? In the last year and a half, I’ve found in wine and beer what I spent the last 3 and a half decades looking for in weed (smoking a half ounce a month). I’d been almost alcohol-free for 2 decades. No shit. We should hang out. I’ll bring the weed, you bring the beer.Silent Majority wrote: ↑14 Oct 2022, 3:00amI hardly drink at all these days. Maybe four lagers a month on average?

Re: Thread O'Booze REVISED!
I was a fairly entrenched heavy weed smoker, 3-5 fat bowls a day, a half ounce a month, for over 30 years. But at one point, about a year and a half ago, I started taking tiny bb-sized half-hits (instead of huffing down a bowl) and then waiting 10 minutes or so before smoking another tiny hit. I found I was happier with one puff than with 2 puffs. I quickly dropped from 3-5 bowls to 3-5 puffs a day. Probably dropped my blood-THC level by 95%. Within a month, a single tiny hit made me anxious and paranoid. Before I knew it, I had gone a week without smoking, without missing it. Then I went a month without missing it. I never "quit", which implies some effort, I just stopped. But around the same time, I started picking up bottles of wine or 6-packs of beer instead and I’ve hardly smoked weed since. Maybe I just needed a change of pace. Either way, if I mix weed and alcohol, it's a fine line and I just risk ruining the whole thing and needing to sleep it off. I’m happy with my 2-3 drinks every couple evenings (or 8-10 on special occasions). Maybe some day I’ll switch back. I will say, the drinks put on weight like the weed never did.

Re: Thread O'Booze REVISED!
I get the munchies like crazy when I smoke, so it's very hard for me to tell which is the bigger offender for weight gain. I try to keep the snacks in the "healthier" forager side (nuts and fruit rather than chips and ice cream or whatever). However, I'm trying to cut down to one binge drinking session per week to get my beach body ready, so I'll probably find out then.Kimmelweck wrote: ↑13 Dec 2022, 10:29amI will say, the drinks put on weight like the weed never did.
The anxiety is really a shame though, I recall when I first started smoking it was so fun, and I'd get into laughing fits and so on, but the longer I smoked heavily, the less fun it was. Probably doesn't help that my age was dovetailing with increased responsibility and more evidence of my body's natural decay.

Picked this up...
Its good but almost milkshake like. You ever have a can of starbucks doubleshot vanilla flavor coffee. This is like the beer version.
