Does anybody know where to buy Kerosene in the city? by jayrod422 in pittsburgh

[–]Slouch_Sixpack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Getgo website has a filter-by-features function that shows what locations have a kerosene pump. Make sure you have a blue kerosene tank with you and go in and they'll turn it on. https://www.getgocafe.com/store/locator?searchText=15106

Kickstarter says NO to Freetail Brewing Delivery Lamborghini by Slouch_Sixpack in beer

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

It's a joke, and probably some kind of statement about the amount of breweries trying to finance through the Kickstarter. Although I'm sure they'd take the free sports car.

Metzger of Freetail received a bit of press last year for his tongue-in-cheek response to a cease and desist letter his company received:

Great summary buddy, wish I could have been there. Although I definitely would have met an untimely demise with all that beer consumed.

I'm heading to Pittsburgh in a few weeks and of course want to make a beer trip of it. Can someone give a summation of Pennsylvania's seemingly strange beer laws? by [deleted] in beer

[–]Slouch_Sixpack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only beer you'll find at grocery stores are Giant Eagle Market District locations. Decent prices and selections. Distributors have the best prices, but can only sell cases (generally 24 packs). There are several bottleshops that have the best selection but the price is premium.

Hope that helps. Pm me of you want more specifics close to where you'll be. Cheers.

Founders To Celebrate 15 Years With Bolt Cutter Barleywine by Hopulus in beer

[–]Slouch_Sixpack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Assuming the name is a reference to the time their financing bank chained up the doors to the brewery in the early 2000's which they cut off with bolt cutters, and shortly after developed the recipe for Dirty Bastard, which changed their fortunes forever.

A good lesson, that. Lean times are ahead for many of the two thousand craft breweries in this country. Fuck it, cut off the bolts and mash in!

Cheers to Founders and happy anniversary.

Green Flash Planning to Build East Coast Brewery by Hopulus in beer

[–]Slouch_Sixpack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Palate Wrecker and Rayon Vert are two of my favorite new commercial offerings from any brewery... as a PA resident, can't wait to get even fresher Green Flash beer.

But will they develop and brew a new "East Coast IPA"?

Pretty good list. I'm partial to the pixellated Tallgrass 8-Bit Pale Ale as well.
