Last year I brought a six pack of Coors Banquet into the brewery. Everybody rolled their eyes except our head brewer at the time and he took three good pulls off a glass and said “Like it or not that is a perfectly executed Beer.“
Kevin, unless there’s a seachange at a brewery, the beers don’t change but our beer palates do.
in a few years you might be singing the praises of a quality Pilsner.
Lawsons had a brief quality control issue at Two Roads but I believe, with their new brewery, everything you are getting in Massachusetts is from Vermont.
Sorry, as somebody with professional brewing and beer judging experience, Alchemist and Lawson’s still outrank most of the current fanboy haze darlings.
Both of those breweries can also make damn good Pilsner’s and lager quality is often a measure of a brewer’s skill level.

Information travels fast in the craft beer world. We thought they were done a year ago.
I had been thinking about getting into a new line of work but the beer/ brewing world still has some job security so I guess I should count my blessings.
I have some friends who are school administrators in various towns and apparently it is very tight finding new teachers to hire and they are pretty much no substitute teachers available.
If “they” are here, they have probably been here for a long time.
I wonder how many people would even be shocked by some type of extra terrestrial disclosure from the government?
Have you ever listened to the Bob Lazar interviews?
My cousin’s first husband worked at at Nellis AFB. He had some interesting stories after you got a few beers in him.
We are 18+ months away from any sense of normalcy, especially when factoring in societal impact, economic impact etc.
I’ve been discussing that probability with my family and friends and neighbors, just to be mentally prepared.
I just saw Saturn‘s rings clearly through my neighbors telescope! I’ve never seen them before. Pretty mind blowing!
edit: Jupiter and 3 of it’s moons also!
