Stone has their brew list at: http://www.stonebrew.com/beers/ Good Stuff! All of it!

Wikipedia has a write-up at : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_Brewing_Company worth a glance-over.

I’d like for them to attempt a Lambic beer. However, natural fermentation in California might only produce acid-rain, or some other unmentionable by-product. Lambic beer is very raw, almost always colored-over with fruity (sissy!) flavors, to make it more palatable. Dammit! I like a beer that fights back. Every swallow of true Lambic is like a mini death match. Your tonsils versus the world!

Speaking of bastards, Thierry & Guy Fat Bastard Merlot is pretty good.

My old man got me into Arrogant Bastard, mostly for the humor of it all. I like a beer that insults me openly as I drink it and pour over the contents. I haven’t had much from Stone Brewing, but enough to know that they are the best microbrewery back in my home state of California.

I work part-time at Andy’s Carryout/Drive-Thru (2480 N. High), and we carry double-deuces of Arrogant Bastard. So y’all stop in whenever you’re in the neighborhood.

I’ve gotta say, though, that when it comes to Stone I prefer the Ruination IPA; but then again I’m a hop freak – if it doesn’t have close to 100 IBUs (or more, even), I’m not gonna love it.

I’ve met a few people who’ve told me that you have to drive to Atlanta if you want an Arrogant Bastard. Not anymore, though. This is by far the greatest intellectual advancement the state of Alabama has seen since I’ve been here.

Congratulations on the Gourmet Beer Bill Vico! All Alabamians must now proceed IMMEDIATELY to the following website:

No more mandatory sissy, fizzy, piss-yellow beer drinking! Real-mens stuff … and yet they love their Southern Comfort … go figure?

The most disturbing thing about this is when you go over to read the BWI BB. It shows evidence (although only circumstantial) that PSU is doing a very poor job of educating those folks. A clearer case of fraud I have never seen. Does PSU actually charge tuition to produce that level of intelligence? If so, then the NCAA should give the entire school the death penalty for impersonating an institution for higher learning. (Straight-line if anyone wants to use it.)

FWIW, Nik, Thursday’s Lantern broke the violations down by sport and briefly described each one – maybe they didn’t do that in the first article because they thought that a “series” might get them in the running for the campus paper equivalent of a Pulitzer (/sarcasm).

I’ll second bupx3 (nice to see you over here bups! be sure to chime in on my roundtable here next month) on the general and regrettable shittiness of The Lantern. If you really want a laugh check out their Op-Eds.

Despite checking this blog multiple times every day, i have yet to post here, but I just have to say thank you for answering all the questions that the “reporter” failed to do, in addition to providing links so that we can look it up ourselves. Another excellent post by you guys to keep us coming back =)
