Too Stupid To Judge Galaxy Beers Then

Machine Learning HDIPA from Bottle Logic Brewing

Beer Twitter regularly bashes Untappd for everything, especially the people that don’t like the style of a beer and rate it poorly.

While I agree if you REALLY don’t understand the style you are drinking you should refrain from rating it and just leave some comments to your future self like “Don’t drink this again, ya dummy!”

BUT. Untappd is whatever you (and I will die on this virtual hill), whatever you want to use it for. If I want to rate beers on how it actually tastes to me and not what a Cicerone trained geek thinks of it, then I will. I paid zero cents for the app just like you, I’ll do what I want and that doesn’t make me better or worse than Beer Geek Twitter.

While we are here, where does this want for Untappd ratings to be 100% accurate end?

The beer pictured at the top, Bottle Logic “Machine Learning” was a total label-buy. Love the label. Love IPAs and usually Hazzies. The beer? Not really. I won’t get it again.

This is my rating:

Basically if I rate something under a 3.75, I was not into it. Nobody is going to grill me for the mediocre rating. But maybe I don’t know what the hell a HDIPA featuring Galaxy, Idaho 7 & El Dorado is supposed to taste like.

Should I have NOT rated it? Of course not. So leave Untappd ratings alone, yo. Make it how you want. ✌️?

The Last Words Of A Beer

Revision Brewing Battle Of The Lords IPA

Hello.

How have you been?

That bad? Well, it never lasts forever.

Settle your heart or something.

Thank goodness you had me this whole time.

Don’t leave me here alone.

Oh good you’re back. You didn’t fall in did you?

Heyohhhhhh, that is the buzz kicking in. Sometimes a DIPA serves a purpose now doesn’t it? We can’t all be “Lo-Fi” brah.

I hope I was enjoyable.

Don’t worry, there is always another beer.

[This is from the perspective of the beer I drank if it… talked. to me.]

Is There A Second Batch Of Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale? Yes.

Celebration Ale 2021

Every year on the Perfect Pour we wonder if Sierra Nevada Brewing makes multiple batches of Celebration Ale, or do they do it all in one shot.

Well this season, in year of our Beer Lord 2021, I can all but confirm there are at least two batches!!

The first batch to hit Fresno was canned on 10/08/21.

It was looking like that was it because several six-packs purchased later resulted in the same date.

But today (after it sat untouched for a week in my fridge as I moved through previously bought sixers) I have discovered a second batch:

A 11/05/21 Celebration Ale and the Suns game.

11/05/21. It’s at least a second canning date. But with that large of span between dates we can assume that’s a different batch.

Does Sierra have a third batch in them before Celebration goes away? We’ll keep checking.

By the way, the second batch tastes the same as the first, as far as I can tell.

UPDATE!: There are even more batches. This from an Untappd friend, there is a 10/5 & 10/21 batch!:

AND, Nick from the Perfect Pour found a batch at Costco that is from the end of September! So that is five batches and counting!

✌️?
