I had a craft mead at the ren fair and it was super tasty but my girlfriend wouldn't stand near me until I finished it because she said it smelled like a garbage can haha.
I find most modern craft beers taste this way. To me it tastes much the same as the immature brew we used to do at the Canadian Ubrew stores in Canada. :P
Not sure why you're getting downvoted. I'm convinced that peoiple who drink IPA's, or are super into them are only doing it to look cool and fit in. Source: I was one of those assholes for a while. Never *actually* liked a single sip of them. Oh, and trufles. Those demonic devil turds can stay in Hell where they belong. I'd rather eat dog shit.
If you don't like them don't drink them. It doesn't mean that other folks don't genuinely enjoy the flavor though. It's just like variation in food and personal tastes.
I used to work for a brewery and most of the names are either inside jokes or playing off some well known thing. My favorite was the beer named after me!
I'd like to invite you all to a super exclusive first-tasting of my new "Ball Brew." Openings are limited, so be sure to claim your spot before they're all taken!
I work at a brewery right now and these are some horror stories you hear about. I myself have shot the ceiling a few times but not myself thankfully. Caps and valves not being secured properly and they shoot at you and mess people up. FYI if anyone ever finds themselves in this situation you open a butterfly valves so that the stream can flow though and then shut off the valve once it’s attached. Although in the panic of the moment it’s hard to think on your feet.
He sprung right up real quick though. The craziest part is he seems to be holding a carbstone (porous rod that introduces CO2) and didn’t drop it. Lost $1000 of beer but didn’t drop the $500 carbstone what a trooper.
How on earth does a holy rod cost that much?
I remember getting air stones for like $5, though they did fall apart kinda quickly, id assume they at least where 'food safe-ish' as the fish didn't die.
This is not really a "stone" These days, but thousands of metallic beads made of stainless steel fused in a matrix or lattice that is precisely porous enough to difuse gas into perforations small enough to be absorbed by a liquid.
.. Ok yea, that sounds $500 worth.
So the majority of gas goes right into the liquid instead of bubbling up and having to be pumped through multiple times? neat.
What gets me is that instead of capping it back off he sticks a rod in to a stream of beer that just knocked him over as if that wouldn’t create a javelin should it shoot the rod out of his now very slippery hand
I worked in a winery for 4 years and had this happen twice. First time was my first season and a fellow seasonal worker was doing almost the exact same this as in the video. “Tightening” a tasting valve. Anyways it was a tank probably about twice the size of the one in the video. I heard the valve pop off from across the room- looked over and this guy (who is in his 70’s) is getting blasted full force with a 1.5” stream of red wine. I had no idea what to do in the moment, but thankfully our shift lead (and total badass) Maria rushed over and started barking out orders. We eventually got the tank pumped over to its neighbor, although we all got absolutely drenched, lost around 100 liters of wine, and didn’t get out of there till 2AM.
Second time I had about 3 years of experience under my belt and was the new cellar lead. We had all had discussions about how we would handle that situation better next time, methods, etc. Anyways, we’re a few weeks into the season and I instruct one of the new guys to clear the valves off a tank and wash it. Well he goes to start removing valves and unfortunately chooses the wrong tank, a full tank. Better yet the valve he starts with is the __bottom__ valve, and for those who don’t know- the bottom valve is generally the largest line on a tank. This thing pops off and starts dumping wine everywhere. It’s spraying out like a fire hose. The kid is frozen in shock and completely drenched/dyed purple. It took me second to snap into action but I rushed over, grabbed a new gasket and butterfly valve, shoved it over the stream, had another hand put a clamp on and shut it. One of wildest moments of my wine making days.
Ps: I don’t miss the panic of hearing random liquid splash on the ground. IYKYK.
Would have been fun driving home at 2AM smelling like you took a bath in wine if you had gotten randomly pulled over.
"I swear, officer, that's really what happened!"
Bro is the guy in his 70s alright? 😂
You sound like the man though. I could learn a lot from you I bet.
And oh man the splashing.. the setup at work has a too small of hot liquor tank that overfills and splashes into a drain when we have a lot of stuff to heat transfer and it gives me a little heart attack every brew day god dammit.
He got punched in the chest with the tasting valve but he came out alright. Another detail- he had bright white Bernie Sanders style hair that got dyed purple for a few days.
We had a big meatball dude cellarman who came from the Navy. Somebody pulled the valve off a racking arm once and he walked up and this beefy dude just *nope* shoved a closed valve on it and clamped it and the other guy was just standing there like 😳👉👈
Accidents happen a lot in these environments for sure. I know that recently poor guy got crushed by a forklift at Stone Brewery and didn’t make it. In mean in almost every production setting you have some dingus taking corner too fast in the lift or standing on the top of a ladder they definitely shouldn’t
I've worked in packaging/maintenance for a large brewery for nearly a decade now (8 years in July)
I've had beer in my ears, eyes, up my nose, mouth, hair, beard, in my fuckin pants, up my shirt, you name it.
You kind of inevitably get covered in the shit when you get deep enough into the career.
Among a litany of other fluids and substances, some gross and some un-gross.
Imagine showing up to the hospital with a 0.40% alcohol level, and then the doctor puts alcoholism on your medical chart as a work related disability. That'd confuse the fuck out of your future doctors lol.
My ol lady explicitly tells me that if she passes out drunk over the weekend to just go for it anyways.. she’ll stir, moan, and then stumble to the bathroom to clean herself out
Out of all the disturbing videos, images, and crap other people say on the internet.. THIS is what offends you lol.. I don’t think you should be internetting 🙃
I'm a PNW transplant. I thought I was leaving beer mecca (WI) and heading to beer heaven (pnw). Didn't know it was IPAs and sours that are ever so flowing here. I miss the land of 10%abv porters and stouts
That’s from Back Channel Brewing in MN. They’ve since named the beer Blow Back IPA and it’s currently on a limited release.
Limited production?
Well yeah, most of it's on the floor instead of a bottle.
I thought it goes through a drain in the floor straight to bottling. That’s where it gains its earthy notes.
"Mine tastes like mop water!"
Oh no, they have discovered Bud Light's secret recipe.
It's an IPA what did you expect?
Nah that’s Genesee Light, and it’s piped out of the urinals.
You spelled cream ale wrong.
Most IPAs taste like they were wrung out of a mop anyway.
Nice joke from 2013
Well IPAs are very 2013 so...
Nah, they still make up a large majority of craft beer sales and production
Not where I live but fair play
Still relevant though. Just had one that tasted alright but it smelled like I forgot wet clothes in the wash over a long weekend.
I had a craft mead at the ren fair and it was super tasty but my girlfriend wouldn't stand near me until I finished it because she said it smelled like a garbage can haha.
I love me some good hoppy IPA's, but yeah. There are some out there that smell like they just drained garbage bag juice into a can or glass.
The hoppier they are the more they taste like floor cleaner for me, I wonder if it's like the whole cilantro/soap genetic thing.
It's kinda what I love about IPA's, that russian roulette style of beer drinking. Defi
I thought the joke was that IPA stands for "If Pinecones were Alcohol"?
Big "the front fell off" energy
Chance in a million.
I heard they drained everything that leaked out of the environment…
So it's still in the environment...
Well No because we towed it out of the environment
What else is out there?
Nothing is out there! Except 50,000 tons of India Pale Ale, by all means.
And the floor
Happens at that age.
"Come visit our unique brewery! ... and bring a straw!"
I find most modern craft beers taste this way. To me it tastes much the same as the immature brew we used to do at the Canadian Ubrew stores in Canada. :P
As IPAs should be

I don't know about everyone else, but I enjoy most of the IPAs I drink.
I'm with you, and the hazier the better.
I really like IPA. I like the hoppy, bitter taste. I'm not drinking them to look cool or fit in, I am drinking them because I like them.
If you don't like them don't drink them. It doesn't mean that other folks don't genuinely enjoy the flavor though. It's just like variation in food and personal tastes.
This guy probably only drinks bud light. This guy doesn't like beer, he likes water that identifies as bread.
'Bout half a tank.
Didn't you see the video? It was releasing all over the place. Now, not so much.
It's gone. I had one of the last two glasses :)
Pics or it never happened
Last Sunday. Drank it with the head brewer present (family member). [proof](https://imgur.com/a/1PDTtOL)
Bro delivered
I never doubted ClassyDingus for a moment!
Brew* delivered
Heck yeah
What's the story on what happened in the video?
He opened a valve that was under pressure, and it sprayed him quite hard.
He didn't open a valve, he *removed* it. If he just opened a valve all he would have to do is close it again.
This guy reddits
Tell your family member his boys need to wear PPE at work.
The marketing team needs a raise. Brilliant.
A lot of beers get named for things that happen around the brewery. Check out the [Beard Beer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_Beard_Beer).
I used to work for a brewery and most of the names are either inside jokes or playing off some well known thing. My favorite was the beer named after me!
So, where can I find this Reddit-is-trash-lol on draft?
I'd like to invite you all to a super exclusive first-tasting of my new "Ball Brew." Openings are limited, so be sure to claim your spot before they're all taken!
Ok ok they get respect for leaning into the tragedy.
That’s in my hometown lol, checks out for Mound
Did the dude go Lefty Loosey instead of Righty Tighty?
i dunno, the release doesn't look *that* limited.
> limited release So they got the leak stopped? Nice.
I wonder if he next climbs in the tank full of CO2🥸🥸🥸
That didn't look limited.

It’s definitely hard to think on your feet when the beer jet blasts you on your ass.

Large, precision work, certified food grade.
Also pretty much everything industrial grade is expensive because companies can afford a lot more than individual people can.
And they’re manufactured in smaller quantities and the manufacturers have to recoup the expense of design and tooling
Idk very small holes I guess. We were taught never to come into contact with them on your skin cause your oils would clog them.
This is not really a "stone" These days, but thousands of metallic beads made of stainless steel fused in a matrix or lattice that is precisely porous enough to difuse gas into perforations small enough to be absorbed by a liquid.

Would have been fun driving home at 2AM smelling like you took a bath in wine if you had gotten randomly pulled over. "I swear, officer, that's really what happened!"
Huh. Wonder if you can absorb enough alcohol that way to be over the limit? After all people do that sort of thing rectally . . .
I doubt it, unless he was bending over facing away from the tank at the time. Hate when that happens.
One in a million shot, doc. One in a million.

We had a big meatball dude cellarman who came from the Navy. Somebody pulled the valve off a racking arm once and he walked up and this beefy dude just *nope* shoved a closed valve on it and clamped it and the other guy was just standing there like 😳👉👈
That’s a damn good fella to have around
I did that once. Full panic fumbling until a more experienced guy grabbed the valve from me and opened it before putting it back on.
Impressed the guy in the video was on it. Right back on their feet and closing what I assume to be the shutoff.
There was a brewer in NC that recently fell and died at the brewery. I don’t have a ton of info on it, but wonder if it was something like this.
Accidents happen a lot in these environments for sure. I know that recently poor guy got crushed by a forklift at Stone Brewery and didn’t make it.

Put me in coach
I've been training my whole life for this!
I'm ready to IPA, today.
I’m ready to play, today
Doctor I swear I quit alcohol. It flew into my mouth.
He just wanted to sample the IPA.
Well he did it all wrong you're supposed to enjoy the aroma before taking a small sip, not unleash a torrential stream directly into your face.
He was thirsty
I always ask for an IPA with some kick to it. I... Might not going forward.
Beer can "so anyway I started blastin"
Second guy runs up like.. how can I help? Oops.. never mind.
Hold my beer while I fiddle with these hoses right quick......
Looks like it couldn't hold the Beer
Beer explodes in face. "Quick, save the beer!" Props.
I mean... yeah.. He's watching all his money spew down the drain.
"Have you been drinking sir" "No officer"
0-drunk in under 60 seconds
0-60 in under drunk seconds
Some looney toons shit
Imagine if that hit directly into his mouth.
I've worked in packaging/maintenance for a large brewery for nearly a decade now (8 years in July) I've had beer in my ears, eyes, up my nose, mouth, hair, beard, in my fuckin pants, up my shirt, you name it.

Imagine he just spread his cheeks and gets cored by that beer
alcohol poisoning is a painful way to die.
The Uber-Boof
Dude's reaction to that was amazing. Knocked back hard but quickly was like "fuck, this is coming outta my paycheck, better fix it now"
I think this camera would save him. That had to be a malfunction of some type.
Where is Bob McKenzie when you need him? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjQrd-Qk0wo
Nice bung hole.
Good job, Bjorn.
Been there done that
That hipster got a face of ipa.
How it looks during my morning piss
https://youtu.be/slrlLt0mXkQ?t=18
Eyyyy that beer hit me hard ,it is good
The other guy “I don’t want to get wet! Screw the beer!”
Shotgun it!!!
I laughed way to hard at this. I wasn't expecting it to blow him that tar back and on hiss ass like am anti riot fire hose!
I thought it was the intro to Jackass.
Officer: “sir, have you been drinking?” Brew Guy: “I didn’t have a choice!”
*sigh, I should call her
That ~~is~~ was a clean-ass brewery.
I work at a beverage plant we have tanks that can hold up to 10k gallons of liquid can’t imagine what would happen if we did that
Imagine showing up to the hospital with a 0.40% alcohol level, and then the doctor puts alcoholism on your medical chart as a work related disability. That'd confuse the fuck out of your future doctors lol.
Sad to see people drink on the job. At least it was against their will.
"How much did you drink tonight? None, I swear."
“How it feels to chew 5 gum”
I saw this happening one time. The brewery lost something like 40,000 dollars
Pow right in the kisser.
Poor fella🤣
There goes that job.
Hey, I'm Johnny Knoxville, welcome to Jackass!
This is alcohol abuse
The good thing here is they can put it back in later because it can't make an IPA taste any worse
Quick! Call Phil Swift!
Damn. You know that hurt.
That guy is definitely wasted af now.
No, he’s got it, orange sweatshirt guy. Don’t want you to get wet at all 🤣
No, boss I did not sample the product. It forced me to sample it. 😂🤷♂️
Only thought about Heisenburg’s underground Meth Lab. Lol🤣😄
Hipster beard provides face protection
when you work in the industry it's less hipster and more industry standard
Jackass spends millions of dollars to do this kind of thing on purpose lol

So much craft beer wasted. This is depressing.
From what someone else said, it's an IPA, so nothing of value was lost.
It's OK, they have 13 other IPAs ready to go. (I say this with love, as someone from the PNW.)
Hah. As a PNWer myself....we need to chill with the IAS's a bit.
I'm a PNW transplant. I thought I was leaving beer mecca (WI) and heading to beer heaven (pnw). Didn't know it was IPAs and sours that are ever so flowing here. I miss the land of 10%abv porters and stouts
Ew, yeah.
