Barleywine’s revival in popular beer culture is indicative of something
Greater appreciation for an underappreciated style
Acceptance of the role of high gravity beers in craft beer appreciation
A joke pointing a finger at a relegated beer
A new lifestyle
All of these
None of these

Since when is Barleywine being “revived” in popular beer culture? I can’t remember the last time a saw a barleywine on tap at a brewery.

I was thinking the same thing, but speaking mainly for bottles (I rarely visit brewpubs). If anything, barleywines seem to be at an all-time low around here (Colorado). Which suits me fine.

This seems to be Joe filling the main forums with memes instead of actual discussion. Mods, please move this to OTL!

What does pertinent mean?

It’s kinda like the hot dog sandwich thing on the Facebook rate beer, IMO.

Can it be a real thing if cgarvie hasn’t made an inane poll about it?

Inanae to you, btu i think there some interesting insights. to be got from the polls.
I was certainly surprised that deviation from average was as small as it was.
Conversely i was totally unsurprised by the off line ratings being the most desired update to the app
and quite frankly im getting a little annoyed that the frankly bullying tones im being found aimed at me.

It does seem like a bit more than some good natured ribbing.
Please tone it down a bit, friends! CHEERS!
(Oh wow, I use the double break to indicate I’m referring to a different audience and this new forum does not respect the double line break)

Yeah, just for trying to get the new forums banging.
