One benefit of AI is that video game movies will no longer suck.
Too many stories can't be done with live action.

@BleachedAnusDawg, was that any good?
My Friday night drinking was a disaster this week. Picked up five beers, two that I know are amazing, three I've never had. Went exploring through the three I'd never had, and it got increasingly disastrous:
1.) Banana Chocolate Big Bad Baptist: Clear cut case of the adjuncts making the beer worse instead of better. Wasn't terrible, and got better as I drank it thanks to buzz setting in, just not that amazing for a $15.50 can of beer.
2.) Cinnamon Roll Big Bad Baptist: I loves me some BBB, but this was two for two letdowns. This one surpassed "meh" and was at the point that I felt like I was working to finish it.
3.) Biscotti Bourbon County: This was the biggest surprise, as Goose Island tends to not fuck around. And I loves me some biscotti stout usually. This beer was downright fucking disgusting. Poured the last of it out.
The beers that I passed on for these three disasters were a 2023 Bourbon County Backyard Stout (mulberries, boysenberries, marionberries) that's fucking amazing and a Ladybird Stout from Kings and Daughters (vanilla, cocoa nibs, coconut) that's also fucking amazing. Some other day, I guess.

The Puppy Love was actually pretty damn tasty. Be sure to roll the can before pouring as I missed out on a little sludge at the bottom. Really good, though, and at 6% you don't get sick of it.
I saw that 23 berried Bourbon County in a cooler recently and thought hard but didn't pull the trigger. Maybe I'll go back and get it.
 
Knocking back a Fast Fashion while making chili. One of the breweries I regrettably couldn't get to while in Bend a couple summers back. Highly recommend.

Had a fancy Matchless coffee stout last night that was great. Not a syrupy mess, not overbearing with some chocolate aftertaste, actually perfect for the weather right now.
 
3-Way, right?
I had that the other week. It was good, but not as good as some of the offerings in years past.
Correct.
I wouldn't even say it's better than Vortex.
But it just reinforces that Ft George is one of the best breweries in the entire PNW.
 
Alll depends on style of beer at this point. I could pick it a dozen "best brewery" based on what I'm drinking. Pfriem is on the overall top tier, though. Many good things there.

I stay in good river every year. Their beer scene is better than almost everywhere else.

I usually stay across the river from Hood River on the Washington side at least once each year. Girlfriend's family has a house there. Not a big brewery guy but will have to check out.
 
Pfriem is outstanding. They've seriously increased distribution into northern Idaho grocery stores and I'm grateful.
I like their color coded can system. When it's hot out and I'm on the river or golfing it's White Cans. When I want to mess with @chuck 's golf game it's Black cans of IPA with high ABV.
