Now it's time to hit the Panic button: Beer Shortage

Discussion in 'General' started by BigBird, Sep 20, 2022.

    BigBird blah

    A carbon dioxide production shortage caused by natural contamination at the Jackson Dome — a Mississippi reservoir of CO2 from an extinct volcano — is forcing brewers to cut back.

    Brewers across the country are reporting production delays in getting beer to the market and drafting contingency plans to switch to nitrogen.

    Thats surprising, as bad as that stuff is, you would think it would be the last one standing.

    The cases of Titos handles in my garage make me less than concerned right now.

    I'm a Booze Prepper™.

    solution...

    1) be a man
    2) throw your panties away
    3) have a whiskey

    you're welcome. (or brew your own toilet wine like a degen)

    Aluminum cans have been the issue here.

    I don't like taking bottles to the track.

    Meh, beer all tastes the same (and has to be ice cold for me to entertain drinking one)

    I couldn’t get past the fact that we harvest CO2 from burned out volcanoes. That’s pretty cool.

    Hmm don’t know the TN heavy hitters very well.

    You ever tried the real approachable craft stuff like Boston Lager or Fat Tire? The German stuff like Weihenstephaner/Hoegaarden/Franziskaner is also super approachable and very good.

    I love beer, wine and bourbon but if I had to choose one booze to drink for the rest of my days, it’d be beer and it’s not even close. Too much flavor variation to choose anything else.
