Beer and Skateboarding

Beer and Skateboarding are my two favorite things. I was gonna rip this off and do it myself, but then realized I probably can't do six tricks anymore. I got about three and I love em. Also, after two beers I couldn't ollie up a curb (maybe a small one). Ok before I lose you on this skate talk, watch this. Oh, and this is irresponsible drinking, but I'm ok with that. Sometimes:



I love Gravette.

Happy Friday

Make sure you stock up on beer.

Beer River

Brookston put this up last night. Why are they filming this? Did they know for sure it was going to fall? I'm guessing they tried to right the problem before filming, otherwise I call shenanigans.

What does this have to do with beer, wellllll, not really that much. Portland I guess.

What's with beer and emo-instrumental music? Cut it out. Enough inspiration. We're drinking your beer, stop making us blush. It's becoming lame.

I think craft breweries should release their own promotional DVDs like skateboard companies do. Dude, did you see the new (512) video? So sick!

I told you about the Trappist. I still need to do the Beer Revolution post, tomorrow maybe. Today I got some Triple Rock action for you. I did not go, my wife and her family went after I had returned to Austin. Great thanks a lot, go after I leave. But at least they shot a MLP for me.

I am a Craft Beer Drinker

Duh, I have a bleedin' blog about it. Last year or whenever it was, when Greg Koch came out with that I am a Craft Brewer video, I had the idea to make a spoof of it called I am a Craft Beer Drinker. I was going to shoot it at the Draught House with patrons of the pub. The idea was for every one to get more and more drunk as the video went along, ending in complete nonsense. Now that would have been a good video. But I was either too lazy or too busy to fully realize my dream. That was probably a good thing, because the craft beer scene seemingly has little room for cynicism. The video probably would have been shouted down and defamed.

As you know, Greg's original video inspired many, not me, I was just embarrassed. But maybe I am just a jerk. Where I am cynical, others out there are sincere (and apparently more hardworking). New Brew Thursday released I am Craft Beer Drinker over the weekend. I am not going to put the video on the site, but you can watch it here. I know it is inspired, but they basically use the same song, same script, shoot the video in the same style and is almost exactly the same length as Greg's video. Come on.

But I ain't hatin.' It's just not for me. This is more my speed. It may seem to have nothing to do with beer, but I think it's more about craft beer than any Sigur Ros laden cheese fest:

No Bitches Brew BOTTLES in Texas, Bummer!

***Update: Thanks to my commenters. Apparently we will be getting Bitches Brew kegs. I should have been more specific and said we are not getting bottles. Yeah, that's it.

After Sam first announcing, IN TEXAS, the release of new beer to honor the 40th anniversary of the original release of Miles Davis' Bitches Brew, we find out today the brew will not be available here:

Lame.

Stone Skips Across The Pond: Part 1

Greg is no Anthony Bourdain, but it's about beer - sooooooooooo it's still fun.

From Stone:

Here at Stone Brewing Co., we’re not content to merely work with awesome brewers from around the world on our collaboration beers. That’s why we’ve taken it a step further, by visiting a couple of our collaborators in their exotic homelands, brewing at their breweries, drinking their native beverages, and…eating their whales(?!)

To capture these madcap adventures, we’ve created a documentary of Greg, Mitch, and Steve’s trip to Norway and Scotland, where they brewed-up batches of collaboration beers at Nøgne-Ø and BrewDog. Along the way, watch as our intrepid crew relishes a Viking feast, braves the choppy waters of the North Atlantic, and seemingly attempts to bribe their way (with beer) into owning a lighthouse.
