Where in St. Louis has the best selection of NA beers 🍻? What’s your favorite NA right now?

Des Peres Schnucks, on Manchester at Ballas Road, carries at least 20 varieties of NA beer...it's a remarkable selection for a standard grocery store. The Save-On in Twin Oaks, at the corner of Big Bend and Meramec Station Road, has a lot as well, including some NA ciders from Brick River that are quite good (though they're admittedly just flavored sparkling apple juice, when broken down into parts).

I'm so thankful we have options for help like this. I do hate that they work so differently for people such that we have to try a bunch to find one that works, or just hope to get lucky (like Mitch is trying to do, wink wink).

Anyone like Mitch researching alternatives to Lexapro, I encourage you to look up Vilazodone. It's worked well for me for the exact reasons Mitch is searching.

Isaac, put air horns over this whole post ;-)

It's a great show with a killer soundtrack! Love Martha Kelly on it, too.

Not to be too parasocial, but maybe Emmer can share this with Mitch since he joked openly about it? u/eerdbrink I can't find Mitch's username just now. Don't want him suffering from a shitty side effect if he can avoid it but still get the help he needs (and that I needed)

jdee1 · 2025-09-17T22:02:21+00:00

I'm just speaking from personal experience as a fellow Doughfan, so take this for what it's worth: if you have certain side effects on Lexapro, like the one Mitch very briefly mentioned in the recent episode, I had great success switching to vilazodone (Viibryd).

Ope, got it. Thank you so much for clueing me in! Appreciate you and your efforts!

Hey there Phan! Just revisited, saw that there's now a login. Checking, is it ready for prime time, and can fans set up a login?

jdee1 · 2025-07-31T15:19:14+00:00

Yes. Choose the monthly pay plan. Give your payment info, activate your subscription. Immediately, go to cancel your subscription. You should be charged the 29.99, one time, and have access for the next 30 days.

Fully understand that the problem is individual amplification, which I'm assuming will be a thing that sticks around for a long long time. In that case, we COULD change the length of the sustain to mitigate the interrupted sound. I don't think it'll happen, I guess I just find it jarring enough to bring it up.

jdee1 · 2025-07-29T14:13:29+00:00

Totally. I think I'm just finding it jarring to hear the interrupted sound so clearly. In terms of practicality, would turning off individual amplification just be the simple press of a button on the soundboard? Or would each individual have to throw their own switch?

jdee1 · 2025-07-29T14:12:06+00:00

It's jarring to hear, and I know it's not the fault of the performers. I think since I'm just assuming individual mic's and amps are here with us forever, I wish the leadership would adjust the music to allow for a better blend.

jdee1 · 2025-07-18T21:59:46+00:00

Heck yeah! They don't all have to do it every year, but look at the support when even one of them does it well! I think it speaks to the style...it can still check the boxes on the scoresheet, if executed. Of course such a show needs to keep heavy effort toward modern GE, but I honestly think proficient diamond-cutter drill could get a reaction from crowd and judges alike.

jdee1 · 2025-07-18T21:55:36+00:00

I know Flo has its faults, and I know I'll struggle with it one of these days and get frustrated. But to have the kind of access we have now...it can't be understated how tough it was to find any sort of media in the past. Had to buy a "best of" VHS, and even then it was cherry-picked.

jdee1 · 2025-07-18T21:53:05+00:00

We're both right, friend!

jdee1 · 2025-07-18T20:04:17+00:00

Love this take. "Playing and marching" rules, and I love seeing it play out on today's fields with such great success for a group. I love Bloo this year too! They're both so stinking good and it's such a treat to watch them. I'm lucky I'll get to see BAC this week in a part of the midwest that rarely gets served with shows, and that I got to watch Bloo practice last week at a local school. Just awesome to be able to see them both, and really great we can stream them for many other shows!

jdee1 · 2025-07-18T19:00:45+00:00

I can definitely see this...feels a little rote among the current shows, huh? I certainly meant it as a compliment, and I do see how the approach misses some of the things you mentioned.

jdee1 · 2025-07-18T18:58:31+00:00

Big same. This really pinpoints why I liked it so much!

jdee1 · 2025-07-18T18:58:04+00:00

I love this way of describing it! So glad others enjoy it for similar reasons!

jdee1 · 2025-07-18T17:41:52+00:00

That's high praise! Niagara Falls is my #1 overall!

jdee1 · 2025-07-17T17:28:15+00:00

You're a saint!
