And you find it too hoppy/undrinkable??

I think the problem may be downstream of the beer.

I’m pleased to see my sons’ generation does not drink nearly as much as we did.

In all seriousness, one of the things I told my kids is to not waste half their youth in bars like I did,

Had a buddy we used to just call "too tall". He had health issues.

[DeluxeMoustache]

A buddy of mine is 6’4”. He’s fine

[powderjunkie]

My uncle was 6'7. Still alive and doing great at age ~78. But I think he's only about 6'5 now

Zero Issue posted this to Instagram. TLDR: They closed.

Nemesis has been vanquished, and now we find ourselves in a state of Cryostasis. We aimed for Infinity, but the Venom ran deep and we are now all but a Fossil, Artifact, or perhaps just a Relic Remnant in the memories of the many cherished friends we have made along the way. Together we have battled the Innsmouth, Golem, and explored the Nine Realms! Terraforming new lands while building Temples, and Fortresses along the way, in preparation for the Invasion that we hoped would never come. But here we are, in this Dystopian future, overlooking the Carnage, that even a Guardian could not protect us from.

Thank you all for the many Campaigns, through Risa, Pangea, and Arrakis, to name but a few. And to those who helped us find the Nebula, even you dear Hitchhiker, on our faithful Starhauler, our gratitude is immeasurable. Please don’t forget the Clones that were created by the Overlord, or was that the Barber? Our memory of the past grows hazy, with the inevitable Passage of time.

One day, we hope to again find Resonance, and Tranquility, perhaps in a new Celestial space, equipped with Cloak and Dagger, or maybe just our Exosuit. For now though, we must close this chapter and like the hero before us, announce that we are Adrift.

As we close our doors, we want to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has enjoyed the beers we brewed at Zero Issue during our 8 incredible years! Thanks for the laughs, and memories that our little brewery family will cherish for years to come.
Cheers!

RE: Cider. French cider is the best. Properly earthy, nice apple taste, simply the best. Brittany and Normandy cider in 750ml bottles with the wired on champagne like cork. Nothing better. Highlander typically has some bottles.

Scenic road cidery in Kelowna makes some great cider. Plus it’s a great spot to bring some food and enjoy the weather when it’s nice.

I know of plenty I like from California/Oregon/Washington but for whatever reason I don’t find it great here. Reminds me of IPA when it caught on here and it just came along much more slowly than it did in California.

Like you I can’t drink most Alberta and BC ciders. If you like a good dry cider give Uncommon Cider a try. Great taste and refreshing. Love their haskap and craft dry ciders. Calgary company.
