Pumpkin beers started showing up on shelves in Charlotte August 1 when it was 100 degrees outside around here. Come on now.

http://drinkcraftbeer.com/editorial/articles/why-is-pumpkin-beer-released-in-august.html

I'm skeptical the consumer is driving it. Over that same period craft beer sales went up ~ 75% and I would guess google searches for craft beer in general would follow (along with more googlers). Also craft sales surpassed Budweiser so they are constantly adding new products to steal shelf space in an attempt to crowd smaller competitors.

It's retail so I'd say there's a healthy dose of marketing/distribution done by Bud/Miller to plant their flags early which forces the entire industry to follow. The true test is if the local pubs have it on tap and people are drinking it.

since the Braves suck this year, i needed some sport to watch during the summer/offseason. so i picked up soccer, probably watched 10 matches so far mostly MLS games because they're on at a good time.

we did, but I couldn't be bothered organising it. thanks for volunteering though, it should be great.

if we just copy the last cat house draft it should be pretty easy to run,heck we could be uber lazy and use the same categories

[JDR720]

might make up some new categories for it.

speaking of things to fight the boredom, i just realized NFL preseason for the Panthers starts this week. gonna make a game thread and move it here around game day (@ Buffalo on Friday at 7PM)

Newton and Norman got in a fight today at practice.

Personally I don't like having my 100 + million dollar quarterback get into petty scuffles.

You going to a game? I thought you hated big crowds.

Super happy for Jason Day. He has been my favorite golfer over the past year. He's finally gonna get that major he deserves. Golf is in a really good place right now for the first time in a years. 4 best golfers - Speith, Rory, Day and Dustin - are all young, damn good and likable dudes.

Then again, maybe they need a villain in the mix to have someone to root against. My villain will be Bubba Watson. Don't like that dude.

Plan is to get extremely drunk before hand. That will ease my anxiety.

Jason Day is winning at life. Wins major, gorgeous wife, adorable kid, another on the way. Life is good.
