@aaronwold @FairStateCoop it's just tough to get the haze level where it needs to be...

@pollyanna_chris @Jeremy_Danner @FairStateCoop also doesn't check twitter very often anymore apparently!

[Pinthouse Pizza Round Rock @PinthouseRR]

Our @FairStateCoop collaboration, Crispy Boi IPA (6% ABV) cans will be available at the Round Rock location only. 4-packs will be $18 and we will feature a 1 case per person limit. See y'all at 9AM this Saturday, March 16th.

@omnipotentsco @PinthouseRR @FairStateCoop MN state law prohibits us from buying kegs of collabs we do at other breweries (silly), so no, since this was brewed in TX. However, you might see a different Pinthouse collab come to market in MN soonish...

Social media is toxic, and I'm gonna give myself a break from at least this part of it. Deleting Twitter from the ol' phone, if you need me find me a more traditional way.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

If 4% ABV mini-IPAs that sell as low calorie are actually a thing people want to buy, I all of a sudden have hope for the beer industry. Please let it be true.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

@PourBrewer @dontdrinkbeer Yeah that would actually crush too. Buttery AND viscous, with lactose and 3lbs unfermented blackberry purée per gallon. Blackberry scone goo, bruh.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

@Eric_Harper @dontdrinkbeer You should probably start developing that slime-weizen, man.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

@BeerBrewin @ptak for stuff on the opposite end of the spectrum, get into some legit bottle conditioned Saisons and Belgians, etc. The bubbles on Orval are such an integral part of the experience, it'd be a fun beer to drink even without tasting it.

General Andrew Luck is looking even more gross and weird than normal today. Bodes well for colts fans.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

@SWBurbs @FairStateCoop I recommend going and picking up some of the latest couple batches. We ratcheted the dank up towards where it used to be, and overall I think it's the best it's ever been.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

Random beer update: the regular not hazy at all IPA @FairStateCoop is crushing it right now. So very dank and tasty.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

@BeaubiWanKenobi No robber, maximum 30 seconds per turn total. Regular rules re: largest army and the penalty for rolling 7 with too many cards still apply. Pandemonium.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

We invented speed Catan tonight, and let me tell you it is IN-TENSE.

@PremiumFrye @WildMindAles @FairStateCoop protip: dregs are your friend. Prop it up! As for malts, raw wheat, oats, pilsner. As for hops, lots.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

Also 2018 was, in large part, a dumpster fire for me personally. I honestly wasn't sure how I was going to get through it more than once, but in the end, as always, if you keep putting one foot in front of another, you get to the other side. An excellent lesson learned for 2019.

[Niko Tonks @nikotonks]

@Jeremy_Danner this seems like great news to me

I've heard at least 4 different jazz versions of O, Tanenbaum! today
