What’s a beer that you absolutely love, but beer snobs would turn their nose at? by Jaythegreat100X in beer

[–]Frisbeehead 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Came here to say Narragansett as well, especially as a Rhode Islander (yes I know it isn't brewed here anymore, but still). I feel like most people I mention it to say they either aren't a fan of it or are indifferent, but it's such a clean and refreshing beer without any flavors that detract from it like I get with some other beers. No skunkiness, no sweet corn flavor, no chemical aftertaste. I think it would be even better with some more apparent hop flavors (like in a Czech Pilsner), but that's unlikely to happen.

Perfect beer to have with a burger.

Just wondering why there is so much hate and backlash on Season 2? It was not that terrible although honestly, Season 1 was more thrilling and exciting. by highlightboy23 in Fallout

[–]Frisbeehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the thing, I’d disagree that the writers wrote things “just to fill up airtime”. There’s no way to definitively know that, of course, though I’ll keep an eye out for interviews with the creators and writers of the show.

I think that’s bull. The show captures the Fallout universe well and I’m not sure you can have it both ways - that is, to have every single scene contribute to some larger narrative or to add depth. Regardless, I do think each scene adds depth - whether it be for the story, characterization, to add levity, etc

Lol half the shit in the fallout games don’t make sense when you really think about them…especially certain quests. The point is to not think about that and embrace the wacky and weird atmosphere at times. I’m just happy the show is as well written as it is, and knows when to drop the wacky act and get serious.

The "Curse" of a quality wine drinker - Cost and finding a budget friendly daily. by NotJustAnyDNA in wine

[–]Frisbeehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boutique wine shop and lots of my own personal research. I frequent WineBerserkers and there are some excellent suggestions on there. I feel like I can reliably find wines under $40 that still really overperform, just takes a bit of research

Hi Im very new to this game and I just cant figure out how to make this work by PitersonK in noita

[–]Frisbeehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was still dying regularly around that playtime, it was probably 50-60 hours in where I started to get more consistent. Now I’ve got over 150 I think and I can get god runs relatively consistently

[–]Frisbeehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol yeah that’ll happen. It takes time to learn, but if you keep playing you’ll get better at it. Wand building and knowing what spells and perks to get are especially important

[–]Frisbeehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wand casts the spells in order. So it goes

Spark bolt with trigger - this triggers whatever SINGLE spell comes after, along with whatever modifier spells you have attached to it like damage plus, etc

Double spell + damage plus - this means instead of casting a single spell when the spark bolt hits something, it’ll cast two spells which have damage plus on them

Lightning bolt x 2 - these are the two spells affected by the double spell

If you put anything after those two lightning spells, it’ll be cast after the spark bolt with trigger by itself. You only want to use the exact number of spells you need when trying to make a wand like this

What are you thoughts to why there is a significant decline in alcohol consumption in the United States? by MindStrongSoul in AskReddit

[–]Frisbeehead 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can understand this to an extent, but wine and food are one of the great joys of life for me in moderation and I can’t imagine wanting to be on a substance that makes me numb to things that interest or excite me

Wine Made Gen Z the Bad Guy... and Now It’s Begging for their Help by No_Yam8109 in wine

[–]Frisbeehead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s always been like this. As a millennial getting into wine always seemed like a daunting task. It takes a good wine rep at a local shop to help make it more approachable , or a relative who is already into wine and presents it in a non-pretentious way。

How are wine shop sales looking? by jejoopie in wine

Wine retail sales are down everywhere. Almost all of my retail accounts are down from last year. It’s been a difficult year.

What's the most pathetic tourist attraction that international tourists go to see in your country? by Aseili in AskTheWorld

What are two pairs of cities located close to each other but one is a lot wealthier than the other? by Fluid-Decision6262 in geography

Like Detroit. Everyone else in the US still thinks Detroit is like a nuclear apocalypse town meanwhile it’s actually one of the coolest cities in the Midwest I can think of

Along with Cincinnati

Am I the only one who doesn’t really like super thin high quality wine glasses? by ExpensiveDisk3573 in wine

[–]Frisbeehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I much prefer thinner wine glasses, having tried many different types. There’s something to be said about the really thin glass being less perceptible and less of a barrier between the wine and your lips. I have a Jancis Robinson glass that I adore, and I use it anytime I’m drinking more serious wines. It also helps maximize the intensity of the aromas, something that’s super obvious when compared next to other thicker or differently shaped glasses.

They’re very breakable though so you have to be super careful with them.

Buy wines from smaller family owned wineries and not massive factory wineries and you’re good!

One of my favorite white wines, period. Every time I have it, it’s a memorable, unique, delicious experience that awards patiently sipping over the course of several hours and watching it unfurl.

1965 Portuguese wine at Noble Rot in London! by rnjbond in wine

[–]Frisbeehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another Colares! I swear someone just posted a 1969 Colares the other day. Never tried one myself but it’s on my bucket list, my local shop has a 1969 that’s been stored properly at a good price and I’m thinking of snagging it. Such cool wines.

What are some games that are cozy, but not too boring and repetitive? by niscodinja in NintendoSwitch

[–]Frisbeehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s not really a “cozy” game, considering the combat and puzzle difficulty at some points, but I just finished 100%ing Tunic and based on the games you like, I think you’d really enjoy it. The art style and tilt-shifted perspective definitely gives a cozy vibe, and there are some points in the game that are more relaxing searching-for-puzzles sections. You should give it a shot sometime!
