In order of science (and being unemployed) I shall test it right now by pouring a can of 12 oz. beer in to the goblet and drinking it.

Will edit post.

[Edited on February 25, 2010 at 3:58 PM. Reason : 12.5-13 oz]

^ so it holds a bottle...fair enough

2/25/2010 3:59:18 PM

I will admit, that beer didn't taste as good as I remember I guess I just had found memories of it b/c I enjoy Monty Python

2/25/2010 4:00:29 PM

It should hold 16 oz...thats a real beer...12 oz is just the American pussyfoot version



and Fox, at least the Fox out by my neck of the woods, has waitresses on the same level if not hotter than the ones at Saucer up by Jeepin

I banged one back like 7-8 months back

2/25/2010 4:01:02 PM

I haven't been to the FS in Charlotte in about 8 years so I can't speak for them. However I think its gay that it is in North Charlotte. Put that shit downtown.

2/25/2010 4:07:04 PM

you are at Ballantyne right? If so, yeah you're right. Plus it's a pretty nice cougar den.

2/25/2010 4:07:59 PM

Yeah Charlotte is diamond shaped cultually

90 percent of the good shit is at the center of the city or south of it

Yeah I'm at Ballantyne

Think I'm lying? Visit me

don't sweat it, i believe you.

2/25/2010 4:12:10 PM

Ballantyne might as well be in another country

2/25/2010 4:13:18 PM

and ^you might know why this is. We asked wendy if we could get our glasses early and she said she couldn't until 7. Yet the table right beside us which was a couple older guys and then that one Jerry Garcia guy who comes each week and brings his 12 year old kid with him (to DD home we all joke) had 3 of the glasses sitting on their table at 6 oclock. how come they got theirs early?

My rents live next to Ballantyne (and formerly in Piper Glen) so that's pretty much where I go when I'm in town (F&H) if I don't go uptown.

2/25/2010 4:16:37 PM

They just tried to approve new public housing for Ballantyne and we shut that shit down post haste

Last thing we need is mexicans and blacks bringing down our property values

2/25/2010 4:17:43 PM

agreed. there's already enough in the area to maintain the grass down the median...

2/25/2010 4:18:30 PM

^^ did you hear about the "Masters of the Universe/ MOU" debut last week? Those geezers are part of that, and it appears part of the bonus of being in the five-plates-or-more club is access to glassware early. Neat, but I'm not in a hurry to get my purple plate in another 150 to go!

^ah that makes sense. I want to find out why that kid always comes...i'd hate my dad if he dragged me to the bar every week and made me sit there while he drank and spilt nacho cheese all over his beard

i, too, was going to post a beatup face to that statement

2/25/2010 4:22:48 PM

^^ could just hire Wiggles as a sitter

2/25/2010 4:27:54 PM

2/25/2010 4:32:21 PM

One of these days when I'm feeling somewhat flush with cash I will do the Chimay challenge.

2/25/2010 4:33:38 PM

^^^oh man yeah

[Edited on February 25, 2010 at 4:35 PM. Reason : well and ^^,^]

2/25/2010 4:34:56 PM

Is that like a gallon challenge, only with Benelux's finest?

2/25/2010 4:35:45 PM

charlotte was supposed to have Maudite as their glass night tomorrow night. But now it's Sam Adams . Oh well, i'll still be there.




fleetwud, have you heard about the Stone 2L growlers on the 24th?

3/2/2010 8:01:22 AM

Tonight. Saucer.

3/3/2010 3:18:16 PM

what glass did yall have last night?

3/4/2010 10:18:58 AM

The Raleigh location is tapping a keg of Bell's Batch 9000 tonight, so I might stop by for a pint.

3/4/2010 1:07:39 PM

2 beers down

198 to go.

Not to mention you get free brunch on sundays....not a bad deal.

3/4/2010 5:02:42 PM

What about free brunch on Sundays?

3/4/2010 5:03:45 PM

99 bottles of beers to go for my second plate. been takin this one real slow, also savin a lot of $$

3/4/2010 5:15:01 PM

Have yet to try the SunBrunchDay... and the Stone growler sounds awesome except for management being funny about filling the damned thing!

How much is that?

3/6/2010 12:29:10 AM

question: do the beers drank at the raleigh location carry over to the charlotte location?

3/6/2010 12:30:50 AM

I bleev that'd be the 3L Chimay Blue for $100.

3/6/2010 12:31:54 AM

^^yes.


^whats the issue about filling the growlers?

3/6/2010 11:41:30 AM

Our adopted Chimay Challenge that he is referring to is just buy one of each smaller Chimay they sell (including the draft) and the last one to finish buys it all... We always make sure someone is drunk already and pretty much guaranteed to lose before doing it.

They say 60% of the time, it works every time.

3/6/2010 11:49:05 AM

i can never find a seat in that damn place

3/6/2010 11:49:20 AM

bttt. anyone know what the SPD glasses look like for tomorrow?

3/9/2010 4:38:17 PM

they are green, kinda the same style as the valentines one a couple years ago with the metallic-ish look

3/9/2010 4:41:17 PM

grrr, they've done the green metallic for three years now.

3/9/2010 4:47:59 PM

u mad?

3/9/2010 4:50:19 PM

Don't machine wash that metallic green thingamawhatsit!

3/9/2010 4:50:50 PM

better be worth going straight there from work.

then again, I haven't been to the saucer in 2 weeks so I'd like to go anyway

3/9/2010 4:51:06 PM

What's this about brunch?

3/9/2010 4:51:19 PM

Sundays, free for UFO club members, 12-3 IIRC

3/9/2010 4:51:51 PM

yep free brunch, 2.75 NC pints.

3/9/2010 4:53:25 PM

I killed three Red Oaks Sunday after a paltry 12-mile bike ride

Fuck off... it's not like you're going to be the one who has to scramble for a table. It's a cool glass from what I was told (he told me what it looks like but I was half paying attention) but I didn't see it. He said it was different from the years past though...

I'm hoping to be back in Raleigh by 5 so I can go get a ticket. I'm thinking I will fail.

3/9/2010 5:27:49 PM

anybody know what the beer is for the tap night on thursday?

3/9/2010 5:35:08 PM

somebody knows

3/9/2010 5:36:51 PM

so the answer to your question is yes.
