This is an un-edited transcript of the first ever Pan-continental Cyber-tasting of a Strong Sam brewed beer.
Moss: Well can I open this beer yet or not? (Thread)
Grant: Well....Let me get mine out of the fridge....Thread it is...BRB -- Got it....ready to open?
Moss: I'm still here. Yeah i bam remady
Grant: Oba Taybe. Go for it!! Pouring.......
Moss: Sounds good, smellls fine. Good carbonation.
Grant: Mine has a little chill haze....it was clear when I put it in the fridge this AM....
Moss: Yes, mine does too
Grant: Smells really good though, don't it??
Moss: Smells like heaven!!!!!!!!
Grant: Shall we toast?
Moss: Yes,..... Skál.....to um Strong Sam, may he ever live.
Grant: *clink*
Moss: *clink*
Grant: Hmmmmmm.......tastes different than I remember....
Moss: It has changed. But still very good. It tastes like the strawberries have gotten older. I reallly think there's more alcohol and fizz.
Grant: It almost tastes....burnt? Do you know what I mean? After something has burned...it's considered burnt
Moss: I don't know if I would say that. OH is that what you mean?
Grant: How would you describe it? Older strawberries?!?!
Moss: I think it tastes older. As if the strawberry part decided to develop into a little wine. A dry wine. Just the strawberry part though.
Grant: OK.....Yes....I definately see that.....
Grant: Maybe my "burnt" reference would have been better said.....um...."like it were aged in oak casks...." only it and were don't agree.
Moss: oak casks, yes that's good
Moss: No, but you can say "As if it were aged in oak casks" Because that is the subjunctive case, (I think, I'm no grammarian)
Grant: It has a lovely color!
Moss: Mine is quite a beautiful color as well.
Grant: Subjunctivitis....inflammation of the subjunct....
Moss: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha h
