That would be really confusing at this point. I think I'm too well established as Spiderwrangler to switch now!

I was crew on this shoot, so not on camera, but I think that this is one of the beers that I sent to P-slaps.

Yes you did, it was the first beer I drank out of all of them, and led to my DOTW attempt.

Not one that I'm in as it isn't one of the regular BBA reviews, but am on screen for a few seconds. Good summation of beer snob vs beer geek.

I dont look a beer geek an a negative conitation. I consider myself a huge beer nerd, If people get me started, they usually dont know what they are getting themselves into. I have refused to drink Coors light at friends place, but I wasnt an ass about it. I never refuse a beer from my grandfather in-law though, I guess out a respect, and it is usually Natural, Corona, Old time, or for some reason when we butcher its BL. I love introducing craft and homebrew to my friends and family and have even shown my parents that not all beer tastes like the, as described by them "the bottom of a trash can." Got them to drink my Bavarian Hefeweizen and enjoyed it.

Beer snobs that I have seen and met do drive me crazy though, why does it matter what other people enjoy drinking. A few times in a beer shop I frequent I have gone over to a customer who had just been accosted by a beer snob who worked there. Asked them what they were interested in finding and what style of beer they like. Its amazing to think that this douchebag is scaring interested poeple in my tiny as town away from trying craft beer. I think I might be ranting now. Its been a long week.

So... I'm wearing the biggest hat they had available, but my Sully-esque size 8 dome wouldn't fit.
