Saturday night and hey hey. It's beer time!!
You might notice a different look to the normal beer splash picture above?
That's right, because there are literally a million fucking beers in that picture!
A million! Count them. Or try. You don't have enough fingers, trust me.
So why so many beers? Have I gone full Banana?
No, no full banana. However, with the mad onset of shops closing everywhere due to the Corona virus. I had to order a stack online. And today they came!
I am a happy chap.
Nothing new, all ones I have reviewed before. It is like a greatest hits. A greatest hits from Tempest Brewing that is!
The list.
Void Vision - Mango and Chilli IPA
Mexicake - Chipotle brown ale
Old Fashioned - After the cocktail
Marmalade on Rye - IPA with lots of orange!
Yule Scotch Ale - the only one I havent tried - I can't wait
Old Parochial. Mmmm mmm whisky barrel aged Scotch Ale
All the leaves are brown- Bourbon barrel aged brown ale with maple syrup
Red Eye Bourbon Barrel. Coffee stout aged in bourbon barrels
There were some happy times had, like with this one, which will be first tonight. Old Parochial - An Imperial Scotch Ale aged in ex-bourbon casks.
It was a cracker and I cannot wait.
Or this one.
All the leaves are brown, an Imperial brown ale aged in bourbon casks for six months before being re-fermented with Grade A maple syrup, A 10/10'r!
Tempest brewery has supplied some top quality beers over the years and these will keep me going tonight!
Cheers everyone, stay safe!
Beers!
Glad to see some old faves making an appearance, just in time for me to think 'have i got any beers in the fridge?....' And the answer is no! :O
Enjoy your brews!
p.s. HIVE is live on Bittrex :O
I need to log in and see!! That's a big thing getting listed there!!
In pie eyed man. Yup here is mental with almost locked down Ness. I was glad that I could get beer delivered!! Go out and grab some, quick!!
I could use one of those Beers with all these forks... I'm so confused on where to vote or not to vote or where to post or not to post, or which services are on hive and which ones are on Steem...
I have decided to just vote manually and fuck bothering about voting power. I have also been switching between the two thinking ah well, when in Rome!!
I've been trying to vote manually too.
BTW, do I have a profile picture? It isn't showing on my end and I've already updated it... I guess hive needs a couple of weeks to be fully operational
You don't, it's a weird nothing where your pic should be!
I think it's best if everyone votes manually. It gets shit and full when auto takes over
Bottoms up @meesterboom! Glad to see you hiving!
I am trying to get into it, I still can't get half the stuff working! But, I like what is working so far and things are moving fast!
Well, most of the hardforks on Steem were awful and that was with extensive testing. This thing was done in a huge rush and I Know that with the developers that are here they’ll get things sorted out soon.
I can’t wait to have access to the Wallet. Seeing is believing!
Yeah, the wallet straight from the regular site will be very good to see. Have you used PeakD yet? It is quite good and you can access the wallet from there. themarkymark has a guide I believe in a post for installing keychain to chrome.
They have done very well in a short space of time. I hope the image upload is working next!
Thanks for the PeakD tip I’ll give it a try! You good mon!
No worries man, keychain will be on the chrome store soon but if you get stuck I took some notes with getting it installed but I think themarkymark might have it covered :OD
Lol. Beers online. No excuses now as there must be some really funky ones. Don't tell bear man you are using another source.
I would tell him if I could, good shop has been closed ever since the Corona nonsense!!!
I do like getting beers delivered I must say!
You did mention it was shut. Obviously he is so well off he doesn't have to worry. Can't believe people just literally shutting up shop for this to be honest. This would have been a busy time and all he has to do is make sure everyone sprays their hands before coming in and he wears some protection. Shops are booming here right now.
No one can get any bloody hand sanitiser here! I wish I could get my hands on some. It is amazing how much shortage there is.
But aye, I either think he was incredibly prescient or just a panic merchant.
We have to use it to go into shops as it is compulsory thank god and readily available. They have people dishing it out before you go in which is rather nice as nothing is free anymore.
That would be good. They have it some places here but they have been so complacent it is ridiculous. I am hoping this shit ends soon but it looks like there might be a while to go.
So is it not too bad there yet?
No but it will. post tomorrow about it as we had some shit happen yesterday. The problem is an underlying one as a large percentage have aids. The ones on the drugs will be fine but there are many who aren't and they have no immune system to fight this. Records show 40 percent are not on Antiretrovirals so if it spreads we have big shit. Talking millions and not thousands.
Marmalade on rye is such a great name, and some how an orange flavour beer is quite appealing too!
It is a fine beer, it really does taste exactly like marmalade on rye!!
Thanks for the #beersaturday reminder..
It's the one and only!!
A bear sounding like a monkey at the door, now I would not trust it and send it away too. It might as well have been a bearded man inside bear costume, who forgot what a bear sounds like. You never know what those people are up too.
This hard forkening has been a pleasant one so far. But not as great as those brews you had. Caramel all over ones tongue,now that must have felt pretty amazing!
Have a great weekend, cheers mate!
I am stupidly working my way through them. I have only managed for so far but I have high hopes!!
The amount of barrel aged one I got was ridiculous! But amazing :0)
Cheers matey!!
Today I decided I would drink no more beer.
Yet, no less either.
They really sound like marvelous ones, barrel aged, Scotch, oh man, so much goodness, how and when to know when to stop!
Guess at that moment when you want to say something and all you hear is: "fnkinglhg kiiftuplvs, mkay?"
Proost!
Proost to you too!
Staying at a level beer pegging is a great idea! I am feeling the effects of em all now. I suspect tomorrow might be a challenge!
Can imagine it might be tough, but sometimes it is just worth it.
Going for my second round. A Grand Prestige, some caramel taste in there too.
Oh aye, there is caramel in that!
Always worth it when you have the good beerrs. Not so worth it when you are drinking slop!
True, had a Rodenbach Grand Cru a few weeks ago, that was horrible. Sour as fog, one of those extremely rare times when a beer does not end up down the hatch but instead gets poured down the drain.
Keeping off the posting until things settle.., it's all a bit mad right now. I could use a beer looking at these, but can't as it's too late and I won't get any damn sleep!
It's not a bad idea. I was torn between posting and not. In the end I went for it but it did take a few tries and I had to upload my images on steem.
I have decided to shit post on steem to get money out of the fecking place before it crashes and burns, lol
Image hosting on Hive isn't working?
It wasnt up till a few hours ago. I felt bad for using steemit as an image hosting site!
I just checked there though and they have it up! Thank feck
When I do my massive Urbex posts, I compose the post on Steempeak, but then it only gives me so much image allocation and then tells me to fuck off. I then have to add the rest on Steemit, and then post the whole lot to busy (for the vote).
This is now all ancient history as there is no longer a busy vote and I won't be posting on Steem anymore.
Good job we know what we're doing eh?
Hahaha, yeah. Old hands at the game! I am really looking forward to everything calming the fuck down and the platform becoming about content and content discovery. I wouldnt be embarassed to share my links to twitter anymore. We just need to get over the tron and Justin thing. He's done, revenge was had.
I need to drink a fresh beer, but I finished the last one at home. I have to buy them the next time I could go to buy food :P Bear hugs, dear Meesterboom! ^_^
Big bear hugs lass!!!
I got mine online, they left the box at the door and everything. It was mighty handy!
