If any of you wanted to take a break from the thread, this is a good read. I know everyone has heard the story, but there were some details here I didn't know about. I like the astronaut part.

“Is this what you always wanted to do growing up?" he asked. "Going around hassling small businesses, threatening to shut them down?”

Actually, the agent replied, he'd wanted to be an astronaut.

So in 2006 Lagunitas released Undercover Investigation Shutdown Ale, a strong brew containing 9.75% alcohol. Its label described it as an "especially bitter ale in dedication to all the world's would-be astronauts."

quote:

The parties were simple and informal. Enjoy some deeply discounted beers in the loft above the bottling line. A live bluegrass band might play in the background. Go outside and play some cards. Smoke some pot — no one would bat an eye.


Sounds like a pretty good time to me.

they also make "Censored", a copper ale, whose original name was The Kronik.

Personally i like Maximus and Hop Stoopid.
