Crunchy beer.

Well yeah, obviously. You can't drink woodchips and they wouldn't fit in a bottle either. But the beer has aged for a year with the woodchips in it so you can taste them (and the cognac they were soaked in)
I've also got an imperial stout that's been aged with oak chips and cocoa and one that's been aged in old 4 Roses barrels.
I just want a stout that's been made with bacon now.


And Horsemouth, who doesn't?

We have beer & whisky testings in our School (due to hosting like... the world's best Brewing and Distilling postgraduate course).

For some reason all this talk about woodchips and barrels has made me think of cooking something with Marmite. I don't even like Marmite.

You mean tastings? Cause if so, go to one? There aught to be more than just Brewdog in Scotland as far as beer is concerned.

You did something wrong then, beer is too good to not drink.

Not like one or two beers means you can't get up early anymore. Plus, alcohol is good for you as long as you don't drink more than one glass a day, or two if you're male.

Looks like the interior of Kauai so no. We get that here after heavy rains and I can see it from my lanai. So yes and no.

It was titled something-or-other-falls, so I'm guessing it's a permanent thing and not near you then.
Still awesome if you can see similar stuff after heavy rainfall though.


Also, thread title needs to be Beered Druid Thread or Bearded Druid Thread. Srsly.

Geez, how'd you get such a low alcohol tolerance?

Unless you drink Brewdog's Sink The Bismarck, with 41% ABV two of those will get you drunk if you're not fasting.
Either that or their Tactical Nuclear Penguin that has 32% ABV.


I'd actually try the penguin if it didn't cost €45 for a 33cl bottle...

I don't want to get into whiskey for that exact reason, no way I can afford it.
Beer may have some rare brews that cost 50-150 euro, whiskeys go so so far beyond that.

True, but you need to drink a lot of beer before you've spent 100 euro. Roughly forty great beers and you don't get that many glasses of whiskey out of a single bottle.
