Fraser Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 I dunno about that last part. I go a lot of places and all they seem to have is hipster beer. and by hipster beer what you really mean is good beer right? Cause all the mass produced pilsners are fizzy yellow water. Can't blame people for demanding more from a beer. like raspberry flavouring? Something no one needs from a beer. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty Liver Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 If you find yourself inexplicably drawn to the "Arnold Palmer" aisle in Sears, you probably don't qualify as a hipster anymore. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Actually, capacity is closer to 60K (59k and change if I remember correct). But when metro Vancouver has a population of around 2.3 million .. it's a bit comical that the Lions can't routinely draw 35k+ to the dome. Since the renovation, due to wider seats, the seating capacity at BC Place is now 54,320. Pre renovation it was 59,841. Would have to agree though, it's both funny and sad that the Lions cannot average over 35k in a stadium like that. It all went downhill when Bobby Ackles passed away.

Which is why I don't get Raspberry Porter. "Chicks" don't typically drink Porter and guys don't drink Raspberry. Tree does this and it drives me nuts. I used to be able to get the Porter without the Raspberry and it was really good. Don't know WTF it is with the Raspberry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sell the fruit flavours like shooters that you add to the beer of your choice and they must have had 50 different flavours to choose from. Best one I tried was licorice but to each, his own.

Jaxon Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 If the beer conforms to the Reinheitsgebot, it is worth drinking. If it has fruit in in, it is no longer considered to be beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bavarian purity laws? Which were nothing to do with actually making quality beer but a law about making sure wheat went into bread not beer? There's some damned fine wheat beers out there so to hell with Bavarian purity laws. Plus yeast is pretty useful in making beer as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlanticRiderFan Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Beer should taste like beer and coffee should taste like coffee. Right on the button. No need for stupid flavours in coffee. Ruins the coffee, just like milk and sugar does too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't baileys already pretty much that? although its a liquor and not a beer but still... Baileys is pretty damn good though. Not a big drinker, rarely to never drink, have my own personal reasons for not drinking any more, just seen it destroy several peoples lives completely, once you see that and or lose a few friends from drinking and driving, it changes your perspective on things ... but that Baileys stuff was great.
