Yes for most beers you do want to consume them fresh, but as a general rule some of the higher alcohol styles like barleywine, imperial stout and belgian quads do benefit from aging.
What kind of aging time are we looking at? I've had a few high-alcohol beers over the years and haven't been impressed, but I can not attest to the quality or lineage of what I sampled. But aging a brew sounds, in theory, like something ideal in order to really bring out the flavors. Any low-cost brand, type suggestions for someone who likes hoppy, yeasty notes?

We may be in for a wait. There is very little info on this bug. The only thing I could find at the support site is:
http://community.inv...-threads-r41094
There is no solution there, so you don't have to bother looking unless you're curious. I don't have an IP Board account, though, so I can't see the entire support forum.
My theory is that it's a javascript-based error, where the script is trying to save the post before posting it and it can't connect (or confirm the connection) to the database.

So a brewing friend of mine just got back from a work trip to Europe and I stopped by his place on the way home from work yesterday for a pint or two of homebrew. As I'm getting ready to leave he says that he forgot something, so he runs inside and when he comes back he hands me a bottle of Westvleteren 12 straight from Belgium! This stuff was selling for $85 a six pack retail back in December, now it would sell for many multiples of that on the secondary market if you can find some. I'll need to age this beer and save it for a truly important occasion.
How long can a beer age before it starts to go bad? I had always thought beer had a finite shelf-life compared to something like wine or whiskey.

Right. He seems to be hanging onto the point that if Stafford played the dynamic on the ice would have been different. Who can blame the callers for not buying it?
As an aside, he was as critical of Hecht's presence as I was. :P

This is interesting, Peters is arguing that RR is wrong about benching Drew and thinks that benching is having a negative effect on the team. He is arguing that Drew being benched makes players who are his friends and such question coaching.
That's kind of how it's sounding, but Peters is trying to walk that back a little. Regardless, Peters is definitely throwing Rolston under the bus.
Amazing that he's blaming the coach for last night...Peters isn't too far removed from a NHL locker room not to have some valid insight about what goes on in there. If he's blaming the coach, then what are the players thinking? He is still friends with NHLers...even some Sabres.

What's up, Terry, not a single Mopar? What's with this GM, German and Italian crap?

A bf that is taking me out for a fancy anniversary dinner after the Sabres game on Saturday followed by a lovely overnight stay at a classy downtown hotel. Who knew he was this good? I wonder what else he's got up his sleeve.
Probably something with nubs.

You guys are wound wayyyyyy too tight. I just thought it was funny to watch the big man making a mess of his popcorn like Cookie Monster makes a mess of cookies.

There's talent. It WAS a really good city for music. It WAS actually a great scene. But maybe not for rousing crowd-starter music. I don't know of any local band that's going to put that out.
There used be nearly countless bands that could kick out the jams like that, but not really anymore. A lot of the venues that would support bands like that are gone...if not all of them. Venues close because they don't have enough business to cover the bills. People around here are simply not into live music unless they happen upon it incidentally...the city and the "entertainment district" dipsh!ts squandered a chance to capture something really awesome that was happening around the turn of the century that could have made Buffalo an Austin-North/San Fran-East (more San Fran than Austin).
But this is the awesome thread. Here is a picture of an awesome car:

You know, I'd let this be our new goal song based solely on the first line:
Start the campaign, tell me where to sign. That HAS to be the Sabres new goal song.

Not the best visual at this moment in franchise history; right out of central casting.
Did anyone catch Terry stuffing his face with popcorn while they were showing Rob Ray on the NBC feed yesterday? Definitely not born with a platinum spoon in his mouth.

If someone wants to come up with the video references and help develop a storyboard for a parody, I will stitch them together and add sound.

One thing I will never miss about WNY is the winter season that drags on and on and on and...Having said that, I despise the three months of hot humid ###### weather that we get down here for june to august more than any three month stretch of winter weather in WNY.
I keep trying to remind myself of the awful mid-Texas summers every time the thought strikes me that I want to move south again. But I still want to move south.
Anyway, my complaint is that sometimes I discover music that I missed out on like a decade ago. Got a whole bunch of Daft Punk CDs from the library the other day and am enjoying it all, but, again, a decade or so late.

The angle of his nose is slightly worse than I thought. Poor dude, I don't know if surgery will help that when his NHL career is over.

Anyone hear on WGR today that Ken Sawyer thinks Regier is a genius? I think it was during Schopp and Parker's show.
-
Has he said anything of note/interesting?
Nothing jumped out. I'm under the weather, so he may have said something "interesting" because he's the new coach, but nothing jumped out that would make it through the haze of sickness.
-
LIstening to Rolston on WGR this morning he sounds EXACTLY like Regier talking. The timbre and vocal mannerisms are nearly identical. Ewwww.....
-
Don't think he is a weasel, a weasel wouldn't go to the house of the coach he is firing and tell it in person.
Sorry, but that's exactly what a weasel would do.

Before i say this, I am as superstitious as they come.
For some reason, and i do not know why, Harry Neale is the jinx on this franchise right now. The Sabres have stunk since he has joined the broadcast team..and i am being serious.
Harry needs to go
This is the real Harry:

Sylvester might want to consider calling in sick tomorrow. Either that or take no calls.
Ever listen to Bill Hicks? Here, listen to this, except replace references to "Jay Leno" with "Kevin Sylvester"...

Right. Young players with offensive upside generally need to learn defense. Hope that happens with Hodgson. (It's not like Pominville was a well rounded player when he came into the league either.)
Vanek said as much in one of this post-game interviews - he praised Hodgson and said their line still needs to work on some things. I think Hodgson is going to be quite fine; he's not a lazy SOB not willing to put in the work, that's for sure. And, being between 29 and 26, he's going to learn a ton about how to play the game.

Wow. Amazing...that's the stuff the regular roster should be subjected to, twice a year at least.

I love it. I love hockey. I don't know why, but the behind-the-scenes stuff always seems a little more genuine in hockey...at least with the Sabres. Is that the fan in me talking? I love that Pegula is right there when the Sabres are doing things.
