  1. For all you Houston folks, Tejas Barbecue trailer will be at my brewery at 5pm this evening. Great opportunity to sample their wares without driving all the way to Tomball.

  2. Yesterday hit up Matt’s for a Jucy Lucy, Fulton Brewing, InBound Brewing, Indeed Brewing, Psycho Suzi’s, and Modist again

    Matt’s is a total hole in the wall. Burger was good. Not mind blowing, but worth the effort.

    Fulton seemed like a cool space but the vibe sucked for some reason. Just didn’t feel like a fun place.

    InBound served me the worst commercial beer I’ve had in years. Undrinkable IPA.

    Indeed was great.

    Psycho Suzi’s for great sunset tiki drinks on the Mississippi and solid enough pizza.

    The coffee lager at Modist has been my favorite beer of the trip so far. Sounds awful, but tastes great.


    Dinner reservation at Bar La Grassa tonight.

  3. You here yet [mention=193]patrickdrinksbeer[/mention]?  I want updates.  Also, are there any conference events or activities that I may want to crash?

    Just got in Monday afternoon. Hit up an industry thing at Blackstack and then ate at Surly. Finished with a couple at Modist before waking back to hotel. About to head to convention center for trade show and seminars. Not sure what extracurriculars are on tap today. f85d555d79a3b3b92fd83d948d5748a0.jpg

    awesome show—it was my first time to see MMJ. also first time at white oak. loved the venue but the parking situation was fucked. prepaid for the B lot and it took nearly 30 minutes of waiting in line in my car to enter lot.

  5. bump.

    heading to minneapolis first week of may for craft brewers conference. staying at embassy suites downtown. i’ve got all the breweries bookmarked, but would love some downtownish food recs since it’s been 2.5 years (precovid) since this thread was active.

    also top current brewery choices from [mention=2568]TexasHooch[/mention] and [mention=1238]Al_4_ISU[/mention] if you’ve got time.

    bummed the twins won’t be in town.

  6. To set the record straight, guiness is sub 100 calories and 4.2%. It is womens beer. I get really tired seeing the guy at the bar thinking hes cool ordering a guiness when its fucking water. 

    To set the record straight, a pint of Guinness has about 160 calories.
  7. So, if the Astros go 101-61 next year we will finish the season 1 game over 500 for the history of the franchise. I think we’ve been over 500 for something like 2 weeks in the history of the franchise (week 1 of the franchise and then something like 1 week in April or May of 2006 I believe. 

    April 18, 2006, Astros reach .500 for first time in franchise history (since their inaugural season) at 3507-3507.

    May 4, 2006, the astros reached 4 games over .500 for franchise history at 3516-3512, the high-water mark for franchise history.

    May 14, 2006, the Astros began the day at 3519-3519 all-time, but would lose and fall below .500. They've been below .500 since.
