    The virtual beer pubs are a monthly event. They welcome non-beer drinkers. They even let one of them host a VPN - but that one did drink beer. They have ruined me.

    I don't know but I have to admit I'm very impressed by their sheer posting volume. They're sampling a lot of beers, it's truly a dedication.

    I know they are doing virtual pubs, I didn't realize they coincided with basketball games, I thought they were just a pandemic thing. Alas, I don't think we've got a good counter strategy.

    Hey! I still have a day job! It's per diem and I have to wait around between projects and I don't get paid very much, but still a job!

    There seems to be one almost robotic poster and then a few prodigious human posters.

    There is some crossover, LTE posters who also drink Beer. And we know the Beer posters come here looking for inspiration sometimes when they want to wander off into non-beer topics.

    Backing up quite a few posts - Shamrog still posts a lot - on FB, where he posts about 2 things, his adorable children and politics. I communicate with TillyGalore over on FB all the time.

    I do consider it a friendly rivalry. And admittedly, now know more about their virtual pubs from LTE folk ...than I did when I made my "watch party" assertion.

    Dang. I was hoping it would be contentious like the turkey thread.

    Contentious!?! I've seen but a single dissenter.

    Seems more a chorus of universal acclamation.

    Oh, don't worry, it's contentious. Ever since they made fun of us talking about lawn mowers, I've been plotting revenge.

    You could get together online or via zoom, all have a beer, review the beer on the Ymmm Beer thread, then start your revenge? I'd love to hear about a good revenge beer. I'm thinking some type of high abv ale

    Why would we want to do that? We are much too busy talking about single malt scotch and the best way to cook turkey. Although, to be fair, our turkey cooking discussions did ultimately require a separate thread.

    It is not possible that there is a better revenge drink than Laphroaig. Oh wait - that's it! That is exactly what Laphroaig tastes like! Revenge!
