  • Where i am every microbrewery has an ipa, and most have a stout, but from there you get all sorts. Rhinegeist famously does whatever they feel like, which makes them a nice safe bet. I love an Oktoberfest and I’m never hurting for choices in the fall. I also love me an American ale and we’ve got one brewery that’s got one that’s gained a fair bit of popularity for good reason.


  • I dislike the term hipster in large part because it’s a cultural movement that’s nearly a decade dead. It was people being kinda annoying about the realization that small scale products and culture tended to be better value propositions than mass produced versions. In 2025 everyone knows that. We all know that some no name restaurant in town is likely better than Applebee’s for example. Every gamer knows that a good indie game will likely give you more fun for your money than a aaa game (though the aaa one is more consistently likely to not be terrible).

    Calling someone a hipster in 2025 is like calling someone a hippie peacenik for opposing the Iraq war


  • Yeah for anyone interested in trying the more flavor focused hard liquors (I’m a bourbon and scotch lady myself) I recommend starting with just a few drops. The ethanol can overpower everything else until you learn to taste through it, and try to taste for the flavors mentioned. In whiskey you can often taste not sweetness but the reminisce of sweetness and a mild vanilla like flavor, these are from the corn heavy mash and the oak barreling respectively. Scotch should have a flavor reminiscent of a campfire, that’s the peat.
