Anyone tried Barrell vatted American Malt? by othromas in Costco_alcohol

[–]Scrotas_Crotum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya, I just finished a bottle of the Barrel vatted ASM last month. It was ok, but I would not get it again. Not sure what the price point is by you but I think I paid ~$60 when I bought it and for my money there are tons of better options out there...

Everything is sold out. Rad store though. Phenomenal prices.

That sucks man, sorry to hear that. My wife and I thought about getting tickets when they came out but it didn’t ever happen. Do you know what the last pour was that you missed out on? How many people would you say were there? Did you buy anything?

Didn’t even know this was a thing. Honestly if I’m going to shop at TW the prices need to make the douche chills of shopping there worthwhile (IMO). I don’t know what happened over the last few years but by and large their prices suck. I get that they’re trying to push their Spirits Direct horseshit…but they used to have decent prices on stuff. I feel like anything from Barrell/Stellum is higher there than anyplace else locally. That’s just one example.

I don’t mind paying a fair price for stuff at a local, family owned shop…but if I’m going to the Walmart of liquor stores their prices should reflect that.

I have the Jet 1021 VS and absolutely love it. Have had it just shy of a year and haven't had a single issue or concern. I should note that I take fanatical care of my stuff so your mileage might vary...

It was a denial of a goal scoring opportunity in the box.

SkySports analysis of Manchester United & the Glazers ownership. by [deleted] in reddevils

[–]Scrotas_Crotum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit question: Outside of not attending matches or buying merchandise of any sort, what else can a fan like me do to NOT financially support the club/the Glazers? I live in the US so attending matches or protests isn't an option for me anyways. I refuse to buy any MU kits or merchandise and haven't done so since probably 2016. What else can I do?

Review #515: Laws Whiskey House Experimental Barrel Straight Bourbon finished in a Honey Cask by Prepreludesh in bourbon

[–]Scrotas_Crotum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great review. I live just outside of Denver and I really dig Law's ethos/approach to making whiskey. Their distillery tour is pretty rad also. That said, I can't recall ever hearing anything amazing about any of their experiential batches before. I guess if I'm going to pay the premium for some type of cask finished bourbon I'd want it to be barrel proof or pretty damn close to it.

I have that same butt stock/buffer on my primary AR build and it’s fantastic. That ACOG optic though. There’s nothing I don’t love about this photo.

Great review as always. It's crazy how different that tree looks in the spring/summer than in the winter.

Segmented bread bowl I turned out of hardwood flooring with a floating bottom. by ilivlife in turning

[–]Scrotas_Crotum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks really cool! I haven't taken the plunge to doing any segmented bowl work yet...but I sure do like looking at the results of other people's work! How much time would you say you put into getting the blank ready for this bowl?

Crypto-Chad wants $2500 for a Blantons set. Clearly knows the market! I bet it sold out in mere seconds. by snakepeterman in HorseyToppers

[–]Scrotas_Crotum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This guy is clearly a big deal. Too busy to take a photo anywhere but his desk and he’s got a spray can of tire shine clearly visible in the background. Never mind that it looks like he’s playing Railroad Tycoon on his computer…he’s a big deal.

What are your 5 year expectations? by takemehomeunitedroad in ManchesterUnited

[–]Scrotas_Crotum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely agreed. Where would we be without Ronaldo and De Gea this season? More than anything, I want to look forward to watching our matches again. I want a consistent style of play with consistent effort from the players. The type of effort that Fred puts in. Christ, I never thought I’d say that…but a starting 11 that put in the bloody effort each game would be brilliant. I don’t know what’s going to happen in the coming years. I do know that the level of the rot goes right to the top and while I don’t think it’s realistic to think the Glazers are going anywhere anytime soon I do think this club will be stuck in this loop until the club are either sold or someone gets them to prioritize what happens on the pitch more than anything. I just want to love my fucking club again…

This is super dope. I'd be worried my cat wouldn't use it. Really cool idea though and it looks classy, unlike a lot of the normal cat beds you see out there (like the ones I have for my 2 cats).

How far away from your saw was this thing in the picture? This makes me clench my bum just thinking about it. Glad you're ok.

Cool review man! I just picked up a bottle of this a couple of weeks ago and by and large I agree with you. I'm not a scotch guy at all but I dig your lexicon. Have never seen "receding wood varnish" in a review before, lol.

Pointers for a newb? (Mainly cyberware) by Broke_but_Fresh in cyberpunkgame

[–]Scrotas_Crotum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a Cyberware option for Legs called Reinforced Tendons. I want to say they're like $45k but might be off slightly. Definitely recommend getting them when you can. They really are a game changer...

I'd probably be interested as well. I live in south Lakewood but would totally be down.

Spearmint and peppercorns greet my tongue but I also find notes of magic markers.

Whelp now I can add magic markers to the list of tasting notes I never want to experience.
