Beat it, ginger. Nobody is buying the tough guy routine.

Kennedy was a criminal and a Nazi sympathizer.

And alcohol was prohibited for 13 years in the USA, so not everyone has shared your idea of its greatness in building America.

I didn't say it was great. Didn't opine as to whether Kennedy was anything but a robber baron type with their wealth based in alcohol. Just stated the facts.

Alcohol employs millions, directly and indirectly. It did fuel the american economy, and at a certain point it was a major force in it.

It did send JFK to the WH as our 35th POTUS, which in turn gave us the birth of NASA, and in turn the first man on the moon. Et cetera and so on.

Good or bad is relative to the observer. i wasn't trying to argue with you, Dane. I just stated a couple facts concerning the impact that alcohol has had in America, period.

Is that the joint out in Philly? Watched our playoff game against the Steelers where they won with only FGs there. :-)

Alcohol is a major business in Missouri thanks to Anheuser-Busch.

Went to the brewery many times when i lived in STL. Two friends on mine worked there as 'hosts' or something, so we'd take the tour at least once a month. Got to try out dozens of beers no one's ever heard of. one was Carlsberg, which was a Danish beer, iirc, that they eventually began selling in the U.S.

But you didn't want to live downwind of that place. Stank like hell when they were cooking hops or whatever.

Craft beer is actual American manufacturing owned by Americans

There's a good Chiefs bar out here in the Valley - Jalapeno Pete's. But you have to be in line for 2 hours before gametime to get a table, or you're standing in people's way the whole game. It was a lot easier before Mahomes.

There used to be a place called Kansas City BBQ - run by a guy who used to work at Gates then moved out here. It had pretty good BBQ (very rare for LA) great beer, always Chiefs games and wasn't usually too crowded. But like pretty much every bar in the Valley, it went on one of those bar makeover shows. After that it sucked. The food got worse and it had some stupid attempt at an upscale BBQ "lounge" on the bar side. So dumb.

You're desperately in need of an SSRI you miserable fuck

KC BBQ was pretty good, then they changed their vibe and it went downhill fast.

Jalapeño Pete’s is about 12 minutes from me and I’ve threatened to go several times, only to stay home and watch in comfort infront of a 75” 4K TV that I have all to myself.

I’ll have a few THC Lagunitas to go...
[Reply]

Don't forget the Distilleries!
[Reply]

They’re 50% owned by Heineken and don’t meet the craft brewery criteria as a result but I like where your head’s at
[Reply]

Dude, they’re freaking awesome! I had my first one earlier this year down in Carlsbad Village and it was as good as any Craft beer we had that night. Seriously.

And unlike edibles, which can take a few hours to kick in, those 5 mg Lagunitas kicked in really quickly, like in 30 minutes or less. They’re about $9 dollars each at the Dispensaries but that’s the bottom dollar I’d pay for for an Amstel during Happy Hour in Hollywood, so it’s really no biggie.

If you get the chance, try one. :-)
