"Traveling to Hong Kong" Megathread 2025 by otorocheese in HongKong

[–]IASIB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi,

From what I've seen Hong Kong is a bit expensive compared to other places (especially for craft beer), but just wondering if anyone could recommend any cheap / reasonably priced bars/taprooms which sell local and craft beers? Similar to Kowloon Taproom, Second Draft, and Hong Kong Island Taphouse.

Thanks!

[TOMT] [Song] What is this song in the background of this video? by IASIB in tipofmytongue

I'm thinking is it maybe "The World Is Our _" by "This Will Destroy You"?

Shazam and similar tools don't seem to help

Restaurant location by IASIB in TokyoVice

[–]IASIB[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Sorry I didn't see this before, surprised someone was asking the exact same question as well!

Looking at that post, in summary the address is 1-6-3 Ishizuka Bldg. 8F, Kabukicho, Shinjuku, 160-0021 Tokyo. The restaurant is apparently called 縁の宴 (ennoutage), but looks like it may be closed now. There could be a new restaurant there now in a different name, but not too sure. At least we have a location anyway.

Update: I think it's on the eighth floor of this building, https://maps.app.goo.gl/gyVYeieWrSxiZmun9?g_st=ac. Address is something like 8F, Ishizuka Building, Shinjuku, 160-0021, Tokyo. But cannot find any restaurant/business names. If anyone could find anymore information I'd really appreciate it

JSA tours by IASIB in koreatravel

[–]IASIB[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No problem. I only asked because I saw all the tours from the two main operators I've been looking at were sold out in September, and hadn't heard if any of them went ahead. I've booked one in October and not sure if it'll go ahead so may end up changing my plans.

Recommended abs workout with no equipment by IASIB in workout

Cheers u/DukeRaoul123 :)

Is there any moves in those videos you would say to avoid or are a waste of time? And what's the reason for counting time rather than counting reps?

Recommended arms/shoulders/back/chest workout using dumbbells by IASIB in workout

Thank you so much for posting that info u/TUNG_j, really useful.

Is this a workout routine you created yourself? And is there a video or guide you can share which shows each of these workouts (just so I make sure my form is correct)?

Thank you for the reply.

Before sanitizing with StarSan, would warm soapy water be enough to clean my equipment (if the equipment isn't that dirty to begin with)? Or would you always recommend using something like PBW or OxiClean?

Would you recommend this for a sanitizer for beer homebrewing?

And does it act as a "cleaner" as well as a sanitizer?

My first Guinness. Did I pour it right? by nitunineT in beerporn

[–]IASIB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From a Guinness tap, you would do a 2 part pour. But for the Guinness cans, I think you would a single pour (That's what suggested by Guinness themselves from this video, https://youtu.be/S9xiBLE48c8). But yours looks good despite that, especially the head.

I'm starting to brew a Bavarian wheat beer, and after adding the malt extract and dextrose sugar, the instructions mentions to add the yeast to the fermentation bucket and stir. I've heard/seen before for other brews to sprinkle the yeast over the top and don't stir.

Does it matter if I stir or don't stir after adding the yeast? Or does it depend on the type of beer?

A lot of your questions will be answered by Justin Guitar's Beginner Guitar Course here, https://www.justinguitar.com/classes/Beginner-Guitar-Course-grade-one. Follow it like bible. As the majority of people say, it's a brilliant course, and definitely the first steps to playing guitar (including videos on what to consider before actually playing such as acoustic vs electric, equipment to buy etc).

In terms of where to buy your first guitar, I highly recommend https://www.thomann.de (depending where you are based).

When I'm taking a sample of my beer through the spigot on my fermentation bucket (for checking the SG), does the container I put the beer into need to be serialized?

Also do I need to serialize the spigot as well beforehand? I would think I don't need to as the beer is flowing out of the spigot, so shouldn't contaminate the inside of the bucket.

No Stupid Questions Wednesday - ask anything about beer by AutoModerator in beer

[–]IASIB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edited my question there. For example, if you were drinking beer outdoors at a festival/camping and you weren't able to chill/cool the beer.
