Settling Down - The End Of Craft Beer Promiscuity!

[chrisluki]

So, us craft beer drinkers are notoriously promiscuous...but will we always be that way?

I wonder whether the comfort zone for craft beer drinkers needs to be considered in the plans of all these brewries starrting up these days?

Thoughts?

It's even worse at homebrew level. I read this forum and see folks wedded to yeast starters and then having a fling with a Danstar Nottingham...or so definitive about carapils and then trying wheat and finding it gives better head...

Google defines promiscuous as (apart from the sexual variant); demonstrating or implying an unselective approach; indiscriminate or casual.
I can't speak for anyone else here, but I'm very discriminating in my beer selection. Quality is paramount because - especially since I make my own - I find it difficult to pay $20+ for a six-pack.

Also, your Beer Healer spruiking link is broken.

Geez I with Toowoomba had a selection like that.

You'd probably gibber at the $65 bottles then?

Once a whore, always a whore, so I'm off to the beer store!

Google defines difficult as:
needing much effort or skill to accomplish, deal with, or understand.
"she had a difficult decision to make"

I found it somewhere north of difficult to part with $27 for four pack of some crafty IPA last weekend. Admittedly this was from a retailer who specialized in wine and the beer pricing seemed somewhat arbitrary.

Homebrewing makes you a pimp. Beer is now your beeach.

Yeah, maybe not quite the right word...but it is one that Jim Koch used to describe craft beer drinkers once!

not sure how to edit the link?

Yeah, that's boutique prices.. I'm talking $36 for two sixers of Four Pines (a damn tasty brew).
