Second attempt at a raspberry sour. This time, allowing a few days of ferment before adding the fruit, and a cold crash before bottling for higher clarity.
Was hoping their two songs last year would mean a comeback, but doesnt look like it unfortunately.
Capitalism strikes again. This is why we can't have nice things, capitalists keep fucking them up.
There's a pre-release for this product? That seems strange
Could be good if they move beyond young-adult/teen themes
Arena is even worse value in my opinion. At least with in-person drafts you get some money back in the cards you get (sell anything of value). I can't justify paying the high cost they charge for *digital *drafts.
It's a real shame too, I love drafting, but there's no way I'm going to pay AU$20 for a single digital draft. I can't believe anyone else does tbh.
I was ambivalent to the play boosters change because it was just the culmination of what we had seen coming for years... increasing the cost of the game for us players.
'Project booster fun' was always about asking the question "how fast and far can we push the price-point up for boosters?" They threw a bunch of options out, tested the water, and ultimately decided enough players would pay the higher price-point for the same cost to print. Pure, unfettered greed.
Magic was already expensive enough as it is. I won't be forking out for in-person drafts at the new price. Bootleg cards serve my playgroups needs at a fraction of the costs. Greedy WotC execs don't respect players? We shouldn't respect them.
Was a really fun event, great at building our community, thank you to all involved! Looking forward to the next one
Took a lot of patience, team work, and negotiation. Biggest thanks goes to you eatham for driving the whole thing!
Unfortunately, his right foot might need a star

Actually nothing, turned out fine. Just experimenting with how much of a noticeable difference it makes giving the yeast a few days head start on the wort without the fruits.
There's a lot of 'folk wisdom' in the brewing world I've found. Recipes which claim "you must do X" or "if you don't do Y, it won't work". So I like to test different theories and see what's true and what's superstition.
