Did you ever want to play questions?

Would their Sculpin IPA be #59 on @daneel’s top 250 list? And don’t they have three total offerings on that list?

Aren’t we all a little old to hang out at a craft beer bar, especially because not all of our children could be there with us? Isn’t this something I just want to be able to offer in the comfort (hah!) of my own home?

Have you just provided the format for when we here on this thread all meet up in Chicago? :wink:

But seriously: isn’t that a wonderful site to bookmark? (Thank you!)

Seriously? Congrats I guess?

Did you know that, when I click on their best-of list for Illinois, about half of the list is my usual go-to choice: Goose Island? Wasn’t it a sad day a few years ago when they had to sell a majority interest to Anheuser-Busch?

edited to add: Guess what I learned? Indiana acquits itself so well that 3 Floyds ranks very high at the national level, so why wouldn’t I get some of their offerings locally while we’re there for the next few days? Wouldn’t it be better to get the beer while the beer drinker is there to offer preference ideas? And why hadn’t I ever heard of 3 Floyds before?

Have you missed this conversation? Isn’t there a whole thread where we discussed this? Didn’t we decide I don’t read enough, maybe? Haven’t I been around BB since forever, long before this system?

Thanks?

I’m chuffed, who knew one could grind so hard at Boing? :wink:

Don’t you deserve it, then? I guess I don’t grind enough?

Haven’t I refused to buy their beer since they sold out?
(See also Elysian, and Ten Barrel, and Red Hood, and Pyramid, and…)

Isn’t it funny that Elysian still sell this?

I realized the real barrier is the reading requirements, so I now have 16 solid days of unread posts in my history. Grind much?

Aren’t favorites and replies the easy part?

Edit- That didn’t make sense, did it? I read all posts and comments for a solid 16 day stretch in my history page.

Oh so maybe it was when I figured out I can scan through a thread with J/K that did it for me?

Should I admit that I’m trying a little experiment based on that thread? Will it make a difference if I just click on all new threads for a moment, not really reading most of them? Especially since this thread alone probably covers the 25% of all posts read requirement?

Should I report back with my findings?

What’s J/K?

Keyboard shortcuts are the bestest things ever are they not?

See the little blue dots to the upper right of new posts as you scroll down to them?

Those are the read/unread marker. They have to fade onscreen to mark read, in my experiments.

How do you think I got regular status? :wink:

Little blue dots?

Does it make a difference that I only read BB on a computer monitor, not a mobile screen?

Why did you give me a flashback to the time I looked down and saw my hands covered in ants JUST LIKE THAT??? :anguished:

Wouldn’t the Sculpin be pretty hoppy for German tastes? Wouldn’t the Pale Ale be more in tune with the usual German sensibilities? Though if they like hoppy, wouldn’t the BP Dorado be even hoppier? But aren’t all the BP ales pretty nice? Isn’t their Victory at Sea pretty tasty, and 10% alcohol, though it can’t decide if it wants to be a stout or a porter?

Not sure if you run what I run? Win7/Chrome.

Not sure if you click how I click? Anything black has posts you haven’t read. They turn grey if you’ve seen it all.
Not sure if you’ve gone very far? You can scroll wayyyyy down on that page and clear out past stuff to get you retroactively closer.
