I drink new stuff every so often. I just don't have the palet/experience to really get into a detailed review of a beer.

I either I like it, or don't.



I have been meaning to pick up homebrewing again. It's been so long since I've done a batch.

It doesn't have to be like a professional tasting review or anything like that. Just jot down some impressions of it. Taste, texture, appearance, and I usually like to write down how much it was, and if I think I got my money's worth. You don't need a picture with it, but I usually like to post one.

Blacks should not drink alcohol anyways it makes the ones not immune to mace yet unable to get the full effect when they are raping white women.

Also blacks only drink alcohol if you have grape drink to go with it. Last i checked this was alcohol report, and not koolaid&colt.com

This is by FAR the most laid back place I post at and I love it to death. I can be myself and honestly 3/4 of whats posted here is just to f*** around. If you think someone saying "naggers" or some s*** is them being racist then you just don't know the group

I have a fairly basic set up.. 2 glass carboys, bottling bucket, turkey fryer and Grolsch bottles (most brown, some green) for bottling. I haven't done a batch since picking up the secondary or the fryer, so my first 2 were done on the stove and fermented only in the primary. They turned out pretty good though.

I picked up a peach wheat kit some time ago (over a year ago ) that I wanted to try but I'm sure most of the ingredients are toast now.

I pretty much have the same set-up. 2 glass carboys, bottling bucket and a 5 gallon brewpot.

Right now I'm doing mine on the stove as well.....

I would like to build something similar to this in the near future though Click image for larger version

Extract. I'll work my way up to all grain someday. you?

I'm going to try to head to a homebrew store around here to pick up some ingredients. I've been meaning to get back into it, all this talk is getting me excited again.

I see many jokes and even more racist comments in here, but no real challenges to what I posted.

Every one of you should thank Nick, for selflessly giving you a home where you can pretend it's 1809 and enjoy the one part of the internet where you can feel superior to African-Americans.

Posting true perceptions, in a civil and polite manner, can hardly be considered "trolling".

I suggest a few of you practice your own civility and politeness. Obviously, your parents didn't do a good job teaching you.

I wonder how many of your employers would react positively to your racist and rude comments posted on their computers and on their time?

Ok, let me ask you this. What is it exactly that you think you bring to the table? You have no significant presence in the content forums, if any at all. You come on here long enough to throw out a few opinions that obviously go contrary to 95% of the people on here. Do you realize that no one on here really cares what your opinion is? You either must not, or you're here to troll. Simple as that.

First, it's an off-topic board. My presence is what I bring, just like the rest of you.

Second, for not caring about my opinion, I sure get a lot of replies and insults thrown my way. So, at least some of my thoughts are hitting home.

Observations I've given in this thread are not trolling, in fact those thoughts are potentially quiet lucrative to the owner.

Of course, the real issue here is that to make this board a financial success would require restricting the group id somewhat compared to the current century-old attiude that many regular members enjoy.

That's not going to happen, hence my suggestion to split the alcohol from the report, and make one board profitable, while leaving you frat boys to your shenanigans.

Because, and you can count on this, AR.com is never going to become profitable with the racist crap that permeates the barstool.

Nick is facing what dozens if not hundreds of owners of off-topic boards with no subject matter eventually face- you are more or less holding him captive.

Your selfishness is keeping him from realizing the potential profit in this board. He can't do much about it, because, as he himself stated, ruling with an iron hand would drive many of you away to seek another internet rock to crawl under that allows you to spew this filth.

I hope you're proud of yourselves. You get a place where your little racist fantasies can run wild, at his expense.

Thanks, Nick!

What is it with you all all the racism bulls***?

I doubt anybody here feels superior to blacks (or any other race). I certainly don't. Same with jews. We've got a jew here and always make jew jokes at his expense. But that's just what they are - jokes. Nothing more, nothing less. And I actually respect and admire the jews, taking in to consideration the number of outstanding individuals who can call themselves a jew.

We make jokes about another member here of middle eastern descent. But again, we all respect him and recognize him as an accomplished and potentially successful individual.

One trait that seems prevalent among us, and probably correlates to why we choose to be "regulars" here, is a libertarian attitude. And this is a place were we can be free; where we don't have to confront the thought-controlling aspects of political correctness found on numerous other forums - other forums, where everybody is forced to wear a "mask" if they want to be a member there.

If you are not being a troll, and actually believe the s*** you're spewing here, then you are a control freak who desires to limit our freedoms under the guise of being racially/sexually "sensitive" and non-offending to others. You want us to wear that "mask", with the hopes of it becoming permanent (like that Twighlight Zone episode), so we can become "better" and "civilized" persons, like your highness.

This quote by Thomas Jefferson sums up how I feel, and I can say that it's highly probable the most of the other posters here agree with it, too:

Quote:
I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man
This is why you are going to be met with significant backlash coming here and attempting to impose your version of tyranny over our minds.

In closing, if you want to come here wearing a mask, being politically correct and "enlightened", that's fine -- I doubt anybody here is going to attempt to change you. But don't try to change us. If you don't like how we act, then take a hike.

Of course, the real issue here is that to make this board a financial success would require restricting the group id somewhat compared to the current century-old attiude that many regular members enjoy.

That's not going to happen, hence my suggestion to split the alcohol from the report, and make one board profitable, while leaving you frat boys to your shenanigans.

Because, and you can count on this, AR.com is never going to become profitable with the racist crap that permeates the barstool.
Nick has already addressed all of this earlier in the thread. To the rest of your post, what I am saying is you really have no ground upon which to stand in criticizing others posting habits when you really make no worthwhile contributions yourself. As for the insults, people generally don't like those with a holier than thou attitude. An attitude, which, I doubt you really have due to you being here to merely troll. If not to troll, why are you still around? You do nothing but show contempt to the posters here.

Unwrap that Gadsden flag, Rooser.

I know you don't feel superior to blacks or jews. You feel inferior. Obviously. Why else would you seldom miss an opportunity to disparage them?

You have no idea what it means to be a Libertarian. You like the part you read that says you have less rules, disregarding the fact that with that comes a lot more personal responsibility.

That's not quite true. There are many posters here who I respect, and even like.

I would name them but they would be persecuted by the rest, like negro jews in ancient Rome.

Unlike you, I feel neither inferior nor superior to any group. What is quite obvious is the pretentious attitude you have, and your delusion in thinking you know anything about any of us, assuming (incorrectly) the worst about us. Hence, your "crusade" to "save" us from ourselves.

There's a reason I make racist/sexist remarks. It isn't to make them feel bad, or to make myself feel better. It's to offend those self-righteous, goody-two shoes snobs such as yourself.

I hope you're proud of yourselves. You get a place where your little racist fantasies can run wild, at his expense.
You're free to your opinion, but you're off base. In order for the members to be holding me captive from realizing a profit, I would have had to express a desire to turn this place into a profitable business.

If and when the time comes for that, I pretty much already know how I'm going to approach the situation, and it will be a win-win for everyone. The Barstool will continue to exist in its current form. Like I mentioned earlier, I'm not going to attempt to use the forum as an income earner. Notice how this place is on its own subdomain, "forum", even though the root level is unused? There's a reason for that.

I did notice that- just last night, as a matter of fact. I was expecting a main page, but there was nothing.

I will quit with the free business advice now, obviously, you don't need it.

I can have a main site set up in a matter of days, and it will instantly receive around 1k uniques per day. If I keep the content useful and fresh, that will only grow.

The problem right now is finding several contributors. Finding people who have the time to post excellent alcohol related information is tough. I obviously have a few picked out, but I haven't approached them about contributing to a main site. One possibility is to pull content from the alcohol forums here. Though it seems slow for a forum, it'd be a ton of pages for a main information-only site.
