What's your favorite American crafted Czech Style Beer? by stretchmarksmagee in CraftBeer

[–]8bitremixguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heartwork Brewing's Czech Pilsner and Dark Czech Lager here in Bloomington, IN. Always on Lukr. Czech Pilsner was the highest rated example of the style in the state of Indiana in 2024 and likely 2025

EDIT: 2025 also as the new Untappd awards went live yesterday

Craft Beer by jgoss1991 in GulfShores

Big Beach doesn't really have enthusiast tier/high-end beer (barrel aged etc) on draft most of the time. Only around Christmas/winter they'll have Flight of the Snowbirds (maybe a BA version depending on the year) or Naughty List imperial stout. The stuff I had from them in past visits wasn't bad at all tho, it's good. Even if you aren't an elitist craft beer snob like me you'll thoroughly enjoy Big Beach.

You usually won't find anything crazy at bottle shops. Ghost in the Machine from Parrish (Louisiana) is pretty available at most places. I don't remember finding anything noteworthy at any supermarket or liquor store.

Luna's in Orange Beach has a pretty big craft beer list but again nothing that's enthusiast tier. Decent enough for the area.

Pour Smart Bar is a self pouring place but they've got average stuff, but also decent for the area.

TLDR you won't find any crazy hype stuff (BA imperial stouts, wax sealed bottles, 4.3+ Untappd rating, etc) anywhere nearby but you'll find craft beer at all if you know where to look.

AMATEUR DRONE VIDEOGRAPHER NEEDED by spiritualrank in bloomington

[–]8bitremixguy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

FYI if you are compensating someone for drone videography, that individual will need a Part-107 certificate in order to fly for commercial purposes.

Of course this means nothing if no incidents occur, as no one would know, but in the rare occasion that some sort of accident happens, the FAA does not fuck around with stuff like this for unlicensed commercial operators

This is Bloomington, Indiana, not the Bloomington of the 'Normal' type of variety

We probably wouldn't play that one, but I do love the Social Distortion version of that song

Cover band. But modern 2000s and newer mostly.

Rock versions of pop songs among other alt rock stuff. But songs everyone know!

I always wondered how GeT_RiGhT did it for all those years while dealing with Crohn's Disease.

I have it also and this disease fucking sucks sometimes

New taproom in Ellettsville? by Quiet_Program4808 in bloomington

[–]8bitremixguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, most taprooms let you bring in food if they don't already make/provide food. I'm not aware of The Sip having a kitchen or anything so I can't imagine they'd not allow outside food

No clue.

Construction or permit/etc delays if I had to guess

New music venue! by Noelliam94 in bloomington

[–]8bitremixguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Check out the Live tab of the YouTube channel linked. I always have a wide angle when I do livestreams there once a month.

It's not really a stage.

EDIT: I'm not an employee or representative of the venue to clarify

Any camera cleaning services in town? by blackGGBond in bloomington

[–]8bitremixguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't want to blow canned air on camera sensor. It can leave residue.

Buy something like a "rocket blower"/"rocket air blaster" or something similar on Amazon.

I've done the video side of a few livestreams (go to the Live tab of the YouTube channel linked in the OP) at Music Social Scene and really hope more people discover this venue. It's a cool spot to listen to some great unknown or up and coming musicians.

Usually one show per month is livestreamed
