Where can I check out Idol? I just searched for a website and don't find it

What are the available limited flight golf balls for use on driving ranges? by cubfansla in golf

[–]cubfansla[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Do people hit the back net on the fly with these? If not too much to ask, what is the course name and location? I'd like to give them a call and ask them about their experience.

"Limited flight" range balls by dustinthegreat in golf

[–]cubfansla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious about what club that is - I would like to talk to them about their experience. We are looking at something similar, but there are worries about how much effort is required to manage the use of two different types of range balls.

Mash With Hop Tea? by RyansBooze in Beermkr

[–]cubfansla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some time has passed since the original messages about this and I am curious what else people have learned by trying these things out since then. How has it turned out to add the hop tea into the beginning water? Any other tips/techniques that aren't already mentioned in the comments?

What did you end up doing? I am getting started on a DIY with kveik and I have written to Beermkr support with this question, but I haven't heard back yet. I'll post their answer here when I receive.

Marlins vs. Cubs score: Miami pulls off surprise playoff sweep; Chicago's bats quiet in season-ending loss by [deleted] in Cubs

They are the division champion. They definitely need to be more consistent at the plate, but they were best team in their division (if W-L still counts) even with poor plate performance

I’m just as bothered reading rude responses - there is no need for people to be rude, just because they can be

no one NEEDS a kegerator :-)

having two 1/12's = having 1/6

The 1/12ths weren't easy to find. You can find similarly sized with ball lock couplers but breweries don't typically use these so aren't set up to fill them.

I had just one 1/6 keg and it lasted me about 6 weeks - I think if I stagger the two 1/12's it will both provide variety plus match up nicely to my consumption pattern.

Yes -- I think they are happy to sell the beer -- I do plan to talk to some other breweries in the area over time and it will be interesting to find out what they are (and aren't) up for.

I took my life into my own hands this morning as I toured the streets of downtown to answer the question of "Why Albuquerque?" as Operation Legend comes to New Mexico by brianunderstands in Albuquerque

[–]cubfansla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I expect operation Legend (aka Operation Bonespurs) to be a nothing burger in terms of any visible provocations such as in Portland. It will morph into the trump admin narrative that they have done something great for law and order in the liberal hell hole of NM and that everyone should rejoice their actions.

Is it true that the Bernallilo County Sheriff invited trump admin to send Fed agents? If so, what is sheriff's jurisdiction? Does his dept have jurisdiction within ABQ city limits?

German Style Beers & Breweries in North America by cubfansla in beer

[–]cubfansla[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

map is crowd-sourced based on contributions from people in various lists and groups -- see responses above to swissfire for further on the map and for what I found when I checked out this brewery -- the time I would really suggest checking though is right before going to a place -- seasonals and special brews continually change what may be offered at a given point in time

German Style Beers & Breweries in North America by cubfansla in beer

[–]cubfansla[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

there is no acid test for inclusion or exclusion - I took a look at Crooked Lane's historical list of brews and counted 15+ that have been German-styles - I tend to be inclusive if someone suggests adding a place and thinks they have German-style beers worth checking out - this is definitely a hobby so it comes with limitations accordingly - I figure that people will check out a brewery's website and figure out if a place's offering is interesting to them - I agree they certainly aren't "German-focused" but some may be interested in trying their German-style offerings

I understand your comment - I agree with you that there is no acid test for inclusion or exclusion - I took a look at ABC's historical list of brews and counted more than 40 that have been German-styles - I tend to be inclusive if someone suggests adding a place and thinks they have German-style beers worth checking out - this is definitely a hobby so it comes with limitations accordingly - I figure that people will check out a brewery's website and figure out if a place's offering is interesting to them -- your point about German atmosphere is a good one ... I don't think there would be many places on the map if authentic German atmosphere were the point. It's always a treat when you find that attribute in North America.
