A classic from Ozzy that makes all of us beer drinkers that wake up confused and hungover thinking there is no WAY I alone drank all my beers, feel seen.

Saturday Night Drinking Post: I Have Stayed Home A LOT
It’s nice when staying the hell home gets “rewarded” with a badge.
“Congrats, nerd, you did a lot of drinking at home this year!”
The beer that put me over the top:
Wouldn’t you think this Modern Times & Humble Sea colab would be a Hazy IPA of some sort? Yeah me too.
Except it’s not. It’s a fucking Hazy Pilsner.
I don’t hate it or anything, just not what I was expecting and I think that was on purpose. Sneaky little bastards.
Can You Toast TOO Much On Untappd?
I saw this post on the Untappd Reddit feed and thought it interesting:
Yeah I kinda think this poster either doesn’t really get Untappd or thinks of it as a private thing. Others agreed:
Someone toasting your checkins is fine, it’s one of the reasons you are on the dang app.
The ONLY thing I will say is maybe the toasts of his old check-ins could be a bit excessive. Which prompts the question:
Is there a thing as toasting people’s checkins TOO MUCH on @untappd?

I think there is. If someone is going REALLY way back and toasting every. single. thing. I’m not sure there is any point to that other than wanting to get the person’s attention REAL bad for whatever [horny] reason.
I Am Only Drinking 30 Day Old IPAs Now
This Almanac Beer Co “Love Hazy IPA” is just 68 days old. It tastes way older than that.
It’s normally a good beer (I have had it before), a great brewer, it was stored cold (in the grocery store at least), so, even being a hazy, it should still taste fine.
It doesn’t. It tastes like it’s 6 to 7 months old. I think I am to blame.
I usually don’t have a hazy (or any pale or IPA really, past 30 days). This has ruined me for grocery shelf beer.
Under three months should totally be fine for any beer, but it isn’t for me. I am broke. It’s either start drinking older beers to re-calibrate my palate so I can enjoy beer that isn’t SUPER fresh. Or choose violence and exclusively drink super fresh beers.
I choose violence.
A PLEDGE!: If a hazy is past 31 days, I no longer will buy it.
