    I've also learned this the other way... When home, every time I go to the store or to the bottle shop to buy me beer, I make sure to buy the woman a bottle or two of wine.. She likes and drinks beer too, but wine is her first love. 2 or 3 glasses of wine and solid chance that I am going to get a little bed time fun!

    Unfortunately mine doesn't drink, so I'm S.O.L. as far as that approach.

    Yeah, pretty much... chase is right. And I'm not kidding either.

    Not to be a dick, but....avoid Goose if you can. They're owned by ABinBev, the company buying up and watering down your favorite local craft breweries, while muscling the remaining craft beer companies out of the supply/distribution chain.

    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/a...raft-beer-brewers-by-hoarding-hops-2017-05-11

    I drink it time to time when there aren't other options, but I don't go searching it out

    Nah man, didn't take it to be dick like, I hear what you're saying. I haven't bought it, but I had it a few times at other people's house and it just takes like a solid go-to ipa. I usually avoid some of the "craft" breweries that are actually owned by AbinBev, didn't know Goose Island was one of them. @uhplifted talking about Ballast Point is the reason I never buy any lol.

    Haha I figured you all had enough of me saying don’t buy ballast point so I let the goose go this time. Glad @christyle was on top of it for me though! :rofl: I will x2 what he said and leave it at that. :cheers:

    I'm alright with the Ballast Point/Constellation deal, barely. Seems to have been an infusion in cash and some light watering down, and from a company that doesnt seem to be trying to kill craft brewing.

    My issue with ballast is more with how much they charge for their beer. It’s not even that great for what they’re charging. I can get a sixer of Swammis and they’re pints for the same price, if not cheaper than a sixer of sculpin. AND Swammis is way better.

    Curious your thoughts on the 420? Had some few weeks back and did not have my socks blown off like I expected I would. I think the Hemperor by New Belgium is 100 times better! If ya have not tried it yet, give it a shot.

    Liked it. Definitely thought it would WOW me more. Really like Sweetwater IPAs. Will look for the Hemperor.
