    West O, Blum, and banning exile brewery from your thoughts

    Wasn't sure where to put this, but Nebraska is getting an NIL beer. https://www.ketv.com/article/nebraska-nil-cornhead-lager-beer-huskers/44910305

    Ames Lager

    We always try to keep something light in our fridge. In the past it's been Busch Light. It'll likely be Ames Lager from here on out.

    Ames Lager

    I should have added the follow-up. I found Cody Road (five varieties) at Grimes Spirits & Liquor. I was happy to give my money to that small local business rather than the corporate overlord that is HyVee.

    Cold Brew by Northern Vessel

    I want this. If i hadn't had a crazy week already, I would have used my lunch hour to go down there and get some. Especially since I'm running on five hours sleep today and am on the struggle bus. I believe I saw Brent post today that it should be in limited stores starting today and will be...

    Ames Lager

    The guy at Johnston HyVee is not my fave. I've gotten attitude from him before too when we asked about Cody Road. "We don't have it and aren't interested in getting it if it's Cyclone."

    I was a little annoyed he said that. But maybe he didn't want to go into all the details and nuances of the styles. Bruno would probably have explained it well.

    Ames Lager

    No one confirmed that they are the same beer. The gentlemen on the radio kept saying that, but I didn't hear anyone from Backpocket confirm it. Clone Fest is a fest bier and Hawktoberfest is a marzen. Those are not the same thing, even if they're in the same family of beers.

    Friday OT - Crossing the Streams

    Appropriate for this forum, a musician I follow and know a little bit turned "Cyclone" into a slow acoustic jam.

    They did it in the second hour of the show. Right after the commercial break.

    ***2023-24 MLB Off-Season Thread***

    The Angels have wasted Trout's best years. He can't stay healthy lately, so he's a shell of the player he used to be. They're going to do the same with Ohtani unless he moves on in free agency. The Angels are good at signing big stars but don't know how to build an actual roster.

    Friday OT - Crossing the Streams

    I love the John Mayer cover of Beyonce's "XO."

    Ames Lager

    I think it depends if you like reds. I do, so I like that beer a lot, but there are a lot of people who do not like reds.

    KXNO Sports Fanatics

    From what I've heard (from people more knowledgeable about beer than I am), they are two different recipes. One is a marzen and one is a festbier. A lot of people think they're the same thing, and I'm guessing it was easier for the guys on air to just say they're the same thing than to describe...

    I like the format of their show too. Very on schedule and good guests. I still don't care for Trent, but I can tolerate him more because I like the flow of their show.

    I'd be in favor of this. Completely. Travis should have been ditched years ago.

    Ames Lager

    I forgot to add that the Grimes Hy-Vee said they fielded phone calls about Ames Lager all day yesterday. I can only imagine the other locations did as well. It's worth calling ahead before driving to the store.

    I don't think Stanz has announced his new venture since leaving CF. This would be a great step, but I don't see KXNO ditching Heather anytime soon.

    Ames Lager

    Crisp, clean, and crushable. It'll be perfect for the home opener, since that's looking to be a hot day.

    I like Weather Underground.

    Ames Lager

    It's on an end cap. It took us a minute to find it too. The spirits cashier tried to sell us the vodka too, but we weren't in the market for it at the moment. We'll probably go back for it though because we're suckers.
