kobe or wagyu klobasneks? -
Had a really good dry hopped saison from Wooden Bus in Houston. That seems to be a style that is getting more popular.
wtf is wooden bus? -
As time keeps ticking on, anyone think we negotiate with Keuchel?
i would be shocked if they’re not even checking in with boras periodically. -
Berkman got five votes. Fucking shameful on the part of the voters.
it’s the Hall’s fault for their stupid ass max-10 rule -
Yep, his pitching performance in the clinching game was one of the best Astros performances ever. Verlander's 2017 ALCS Game 2 outing may have topped it.

A Houston Bar Will Serve Wine Out of Pringles Cans - The Branch for merlot served in the classiest vessel possible
Inspired by a Wichita Falls woman barred from a Walmart store for riding around the parking lot with a Pringles can full of wine, Spring Branch bar the Branch will offer Houstonians a similar opportunity to get lit.
On Wednesday, The Branch will serve wine in mini cans of Pringles.
why would anyone want to do this? and why would you want those people in your bar? -
That is indeed a very cool story, bro

I've said this before several times on here and I'll say it again, regional breweries are a thing of the past (nationally, but especially in TX).
this is 99.5% trueYou want a successful brewery? Get a partner or two to help run operations. Make a cool taproom. It doesn't have to be the nicest, just warm and inviting. Self distribute, but only distribute like 5% of your beer to high volume accounts for advertising purposes. Sell the other 95% out of your taproom. Get a brewpub license and sell crowlers (or growlers, but just do crowlers i mean, come on) to-go. Keep your footprint small and get into an underserved neighborhood or community. Play good music, make it kid or dog friendly or both. Have an outdoor space.
opening and running a brewery is extraordinarily expensive. unless you catch absolute fire, you’re not paying 2-3 full time salaries on taproom sales alone. maaaybe if you’re an industry name and sell some upfront equity at a high valuation before you open with zero debt. -
Jake's intellect outside a couple sports is dick and Corby's isn't far behind. Danny would be the most intelligent person of the 3 in the room by far...think about that.
danny is a moron. i don’t mind him on the hardline. he’s kind of funny and has good stories, but if he has to actually discuss anything other music, he’s fucking clueless. corby and jake are both 10x smarter than danny. -
you should post that in the comments

Beane RN.

sitting in lafitte’s right now. first time here in 6-7 years. i will never waste my time visiting this place again. digital jukebox on the wall blaring usher, touch screen nudie photo hunt on the bar top, and jaeger/fireball shot machines behind the bar. what a fucking disgrace.

Prediction: Brut replaces hazy as the next thing.
not happening -
question that came up with a buddy: what are your top 3 bucket list breweries to visit? let’s keep it to USA only, so we don’t all list cantillon or one of the abbeys.
tough question, but right now i’m going with:
sierra nevada-mills river (been to chico)
pfriem family brewers
hill farmstead -
i think this will be a big year for citra and mosaic.

Kikuchi has to sign by Wednesday. If there is a Boras-Astros connection that would be my guess.
huh? -
Yes. Graham Elliott
thank you. he’s been wearing those stupid fucking white glasses for 6 years.- 3

i thought the idea was really cool but the actual story was the least interesting of any Black Mirror episode made so far.

Sure is nice when a member of the baseball writers association, you know, writes about their baseball HOF ballot.
would like to hear his position on schilling -
Haven’t had a Brut IPA yet.
We’re about to keg our 3rd batch. I’ll send you a crowler if you’re interested. -
You guys know this shit better than me. How does Lance being out for a year effect his contract? Does it effect his time with the Astros? Do we get a mulligan?
he will get full service time credit

either of those guys could get easily get $35M per if they were willing to sign a 3 year deal.
