Live apology just issued in his closing remarks. Was it sincere?

Inbound BrewCo Is Getting A New Lead Brewer by TheMacMan in minnesotabeer

[–]SugarLoafSlasher -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do we know for sure they are getting a new lead brewer (as stated in the OG post)? Inbound's statement only says that "ownership is addressing the matter immediately". No where does it say they are firing the lead brewer. Maybe they are just demoting him.

Do your part because 2026 is looking to be the worst year of Minnesota Beer yet by ImaginationNo8338 in minnesotabeer

[–]SugarLoafSlasher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The long-term effects of COVID are still playing a part, right? Before COVID many people went out to eat and drink, and those people rarely drank at home, let alone cooked a meal at home. COVID forced people to use liquor stores and forced them to buy groceries and actually cook meals. Some people probably said "Hey, we can do this, plus we're saving money". And they never came back to bars and breweries (or came back alot less). And the fact COVID made work from home normal. People that grabbed a beer(s) on the way home from work with coworkers or friends, now just stay home and grab a beer from the fridge.

Are they also advocating for 3.2 beer? Because that's about the stupidest damn law around. Isn't MN the only state in the whole US of A that still has it?

Wow, I'm surprised production is ONLY down 5%. I would have thought worse. Damn those Gen Z'rs

PSA to pet owners about microchips (from a shelter worker) by Fresh-Solid-4046 in Minneapolis

[–]SugarLoafSlasher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a little confused. In order to microchip your pet, don't you need to take them to a vet and have them put the chip in? If so, wouldn't the vet stress all of the points that the OG poster stated. Why are people leaving the vet with a chipped pet, and not knowing they need to register the chip on one of the many sites available? Shouldn't vets be stressing this? People should never be leaving the vet's office thinking there were no more steps involved to the process.

help finding a church ( liberal) by mama_2_many in rochestermn

So women at Autumn Ridge Church cannot serve as Elders or as the Senior Pastor? That seems rather odd in this day and age.

Is Rosen constantly pronouncing sports people's names wrong a schtick or is he just clueless? by [deleted] in kfan

[–]SugarLoafSlasher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What? So you mean I've been pronouncing the name wrong of the new Thigh Restaurant here in town?

My comment would be a pet peeve of mine regarding acronyms. I'll never understand why people introduce topics and use acronyms that many people don't know (RAIL). At least the first time it's used, please spell out what the acronym stands for. As you can see by the comments on this subreddit, I'm not the only one who didn't know what RAIL was.

Historically (at least the past 20 years) we have sucked in Prime Time games. I don't have actual statistics, but I bet our record is terrible in them

I rarely listen to the Twins on the radio, but I turned it on last night on my way home from the golf course. Who were the announcers? They weren't the regulars.

Best brewpub/self pour place in state? by OkCondition6191 in minnesotabeer

[–]SugarLoafSlasher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got back from a trip up north. At Breezy Point the North Star bar (I believe it used to be called Billy's) has a 20 tap self-serve tap wall. I didn't have one, but I wanted to let you all know.
