I’m particularly confused over the salary. It says the job is not a 50k+ job, so… its less but they want someone who is extremely capable. Wat

I can’t tell you how many job listings I see that want a single person able to do six completely different full-time jobs, all while working for near-poverty wages.

Adding woodruff syrup to Berliner Weisse is a traditional, delicious thing that a lot of people think tastes like lucky charms. Because it kind of does.

Strangeways (also a Virginia brewery up route 64 from Norfolk) makes / serves a Berliner Weiss w/ woodruff. They call it Lucky Charms. This could be a riff on that taken in a completely wrong direction. Or maybe just a coincidence.

After a few, that’s not normally a problem.

The rule of avoiding “flavorings that appeal to children” apparently applies to nicotine but not alcohol.

A friend that worked in the newspaper business for 30 years used to share job listings like this on a near weekly basis.

IPA. In other words it’s shit. I don’t need the lucky charms part to tell me that.

Fucking shitty IPA, double IPA, triple IPA, super IPA BULLSHIT MICRO BREW TREND OF GARBAGE.

give me a real fucking brew. A nice deep dark rich stout. Shove the hops up your ass.

I’m a tad salty on the IPA trend.

I don’t think that’d taste bad since citrus notes is something regularly seen in beers. I have had their Sriracha beer and it was surprisingly not terrible, think it was a porter so it had slight chocolatey notes with a faint heat in the after taste. My mom who hates most of the beers i buy really did not mind it.

Salted Beer Nuts Double IPA. I’ll send you a sixer.

Extremely low barrier to entry.

I think a lot of people’s first beer is unreasonably ambitious / creative. Usually you grow out of it before you’re running a full on brewery

(not that creativity is bad or anything, but a lot of these seems like ideas that are “neat / cool” at the expense of tasty. fun to try, but why would you sell it?)

Actually. Given my nostalgia for beer nuts. I might like that.
