    lol count me in as one who just does not get Balenciaga’s athletic shoes; I mean, I’m all for high/low fashion at times but these just seem so... uninspired, like also-rans from New Balance and Nike :rolleyes2::snore: Here’s wishing for better VP and beer for the rest of the trip :thumbsup:

    @tringlomane I found space dust, albeit in bottle form, and with an Expiry date 1 month out, meaning this beer was likely bottled 4 months ago.
    Regardless, happiness masks any old code.
    3.75 Sips.

    As a man of integrity, I am going to abide by the rules and order up an uber to palms... (though I will likely do hoffbrauhaus another time anyhow) Enroute to Palms!

    Thanks for the type up! Following along, that space dust is a very tasty beer, I had it on draught at Park MGM earlier in the year, and SLS if I recall correctly.

    Basil Hayden's rocks is comped. Reasonable, middle ground bourbon for a comp. I like it.

    IMG_20190923_1241397.jpg

    Apparently I did ok at Cosmo earlier, must be getting wasted...


    Now crossed the street to goldcoast. Never been here before. It's fun. It's localishish, let's win.

    Yeah that's on the old side. :( i also hate when they use BB dates now. I tend to avoid space dust at 2 months or older. If you end up making it to ParkMGM, try one on tap, you'll see a big difference I bet. The one I had there earlier this month was the best one I have had since the last time I drank it there. Lol

    Couldn't agree more. When you post BB, you can get away with sin. Any brewery I've worked with, we put production date, and post 3 months, it's heavily oxidized, and post 5months, I wouldn't put my lips on it.

    Like curious George, I found another space dust for our study at Gold Coast. Still ooooold. Is this popular here or not?
    No way in this market a popular beer should sit this long. IMG_20190923_1251035.jpg

    One thing about finding a casino bar with 22 beers is you have to wonder if the craft-y ones turn over fast enough.

    Eh, it's probably reasonably popular, but I could see the Gold Coast crowd not drinking it as much.

    It's pretty amazing how old the beer casinos comp out gets. Here's one of my favorite local brews. I got this at Charlie's Sports Bar at Wynn two weeks ago. Canned on my birthday (3/20)! [emoji849]

    If you would make it to SLS, err Sahara, somehow, try it on tap, it was the freshest I have ever had there!

    That's definitely some of it. That's why TAG cut down its lineup after awhile.

    If you can find it fresh then sure. Problem is that's tough to tell. I would want at least 3 months before best by date minimum.

    It was quite good on tap last year at the Sportsbook bar at Cosmo. But I think you said they were tapped yesterday, if I read right.

    Saint Archer IPA was next up.
    Actually asked for a new keg here to get something new and fresh. She said this would suit. iT did!
    She worked at a local craft and knew what she was talking about.
    If you like 60% finished beer (my brewery completes them),
    Then you will love this one. Very offensive.
