Let's celebrate labor day weekend by supporting brands who promote conspicuous consumption by advertising themselves as luxury items, while their parent company actually owns beers in multiple classes - playing the brand against each other to convince you to buy their product. https://t.co/o0mOSm690s
Let's celebrate the holiday meant to be about honoring the success of the working classes' plight by drinking a brand that is suggesting you better buy their rare products so you can be better respected by the powers that be.https://t.co/XeOkrDGQqX
HAHAHA. I'll drink to that."One reason for Budweiser's drop in the list of best-selling US brands is that the beer has failed to capture millennials' interest in the same way it won over Gen X-ers who came of age in the '80s."https://t.co/l6Cycoiuir
The more Anheuser-Busch doubles down on advertising to the largest demographic they have, the more this will drive millennials away from their brand. We are seeking to differentiate ourselves from the past. Mass market products will continue to die.https://t.co/ompaxolLvS
It's been fun to see wine centers in stores grow in popularity. Seeing exotic berry vineyards crop up everywhere in Vermont. I enjoy beer myself, but you haven't lived until you've tried elderberry, or lingonberry wine. I'm hoping mead comes back in style.https://t.co/xFKLeJ4Nmn
How did that contrived attempt at marketing to Zoomers (just starting to turn 21) to get them to consume your beer work for you, eh @budweiserusa?It's been funny to me watching this unfold as a memetic parasite is routed out.https://t.co/eXpGr6FVoI
I think I might make my own wine once I have my lab space built and can spare some thought to it.Going to call it "fuk'n honey" cuz I think I can spike it with herbs that boost semen quality.https://t.co/Jo0Hem7reY
This 4000 year old ancient Sumerian poem makes more sense if you consider honey-mead was used as an aphrodisiac."My precious caress is more savory than honey,In the bedchamber, honey-filled,Let me enjoy your goodly beauty,Lion, let me caress you."https://t.co/mvvw8f3QiE
I've been experimenting with Avocado. I think I solved any issue with not being able to produce enough semen to help train the microscope on.Lots of other cool plants in this book I need to explore. Many of them are viable as a mead spice.https://t.co/s7356dJsPT
I can maybe even get rid of wheat and corn based vinegar from my diet if I can make mead vinegar or hard cider. I may be able to entire escape the industrial food crop ecosystem.https://t.co/WJ1qTtGMdt
This makes me laugh. ABI is basically just full of hypocrites. When they tried to advertise 'no corn syrup' as a thing, they were still dumping HFS in some of their brands.https://t.co/t5lhOapqkN
Can I use avocado in mead? Hmm.https://t.co/vAAU0uv6L7
Yes you can?!I'll be able to fully embody my millennial heritage and have avocado wine on toast!https://t.co/ffGdyOMLBO
I think mead should be the easiest thing to start with.https://t.co/tPYYtLZQog
I want to diabetic testing kits that involves fermenting their pee and using a hydrometer + some machine learning to guess at their approximate blood sugar levels over sampling period.DIY insulin testing needs to exist alongside DIY insulin.Inspired:https://t.co/gbeDeLCwWX
