<description><![CDATA[It is impossible to imagine the life of a modern person without social networks. Social networks have broadened our horizons, because with their help we can not only meet and communicate with people from all over the world, but also observe the lives of others through their everyday video and photo publications. What is the advantage of TikTok over other social networks? The advantage of TikTok is in its algorithm, which is able to maintain a balance between the usual selection algorithms and a comprehensive analysis of the user and his interests. As soon as you log into the app, you see a feed of videos from people you don’t know. The tab with the name “For you” is a selection that was created based on the history of your views and likes. The application selects those videos that were interesting to you earlier. If you are shooting a video for TikTok, then when using the services of TikFuel, take into account which genre of video you can now shoot so that the service works effectively.

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">What is the advantage of TikTok over other social networks?</h3>
The advantage of TikTok is in its algorithm, which is able to maintain a balance between the usual selection algorithms and a comprehensive analysis of the user and his interests. As soon as you log into the app, you see a feed of videos from people you don’t know. The tab with the name “For you” is a selection that was created based on the history of your views and likes.

If you are shooting a video for TikTok, then when using the services of <a href="https://tikfuel.com/tiktok-kaufen/">TikFuel</a>, take into account which genre of video you can now shoot so that the service works effectively.
Thus, TikTok studies all users so that the content remains interesting for each circle of people. For example, you are interested in studying what kind of beer there is in the world, and you are increasingly coming across collections of beer tastings.
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">TikTok for everyone</h3>
We are used to seeing that only beautiful, rich and famous people gain popularity. However, TikTok allows everyone to be seen. Someone needs less time for this, someone more. All users can create videos by recruiting users with similar interests. At the same time, it is not necessary to do something outstanding, you can just fool around with friends, dance, sing, share your stories. You will not receive condemnation, since your content will only get to the user who is interested in this topic of your videos.
Thus, TikTok rose to the peak of popularity, ahead of other social networks, thanks to its diversity and qualitative analysis of users.

Beer is best brought from Germany and the Czech Republic. Only there this drink is rich and natural. Liquor is best brought from Italy, where it has a pleasant aftertaste. It is best to bring alcoholic tinctures from local herbs from Vietnam. Although the Vietnamese can drink beer or vodka while playing vesomienbac.

<description><![CDATA[Photo by Pixabay.com When men care for hair, complex preparations (shampoo, balm and conditioner in one bottle) are popular. The desire for speed and efficiency of the procedure and grooming care for African American facial hair is the reason for the lack of interest of men in the army of bottles and tubes that exist for such purposes. Many companies, with rare care and responsiveness, offer special balms and masks to strengthen and nourish the hair roots, containing vitamin complexes, plant extracts and elements. However, it should be remembered that not one of them will increase the number of hair follicles, but it may well stop the loss.

<description><![CDATA[There’s a generally accepted adage that beautiful, warm places have shitty beer.

Maui Brewing Company has a nice reputation on the west coast for creating a nice variety of canned beer, the most famous of which is the Coconut Porter that I was lucky enough to get a 4 pack of. Not having ever had any coconut beers, I didn’t know what to expect, and after reading about how the oils and proteins in coconut can be destructive to head retention and mouth feel, I was even more intrigued. After killing two cans in about 30 minutes tonight, however, I’m ready to set all preconceived notions aside, and if you don’t hear from me for a few weeks, you might just assume I’m holing up in Maui swilling this stuff like it’s my job.
Coconut Porter pours a deep black with a large tan crackling head. Immediately upon pouring the beer, chocolate, roast coffee, and coconut flavors pour out. It’s interesting that this beer would be popular in someplace warm, but hey, craft beer drinkers are an adventurous bunch, and Coconut Porter finishes clean and dry enough to dismiss most people’s notions that “dark beer is heavy beer.” The same elements that come through in the nose come through on the palate as well, a nice range of chocolates, bitter grains, and a light hint of coconut. Perfect in body, sessionable in ABV at less than 6%, and therefore eminently drinkable, Coconut Porter combines the classic elements of a Porter with an ingenious use of indigenous ingredients that just makes me really fucking happy. I’m glad I have two cans left, but I’m sure they won’t last long.The post <a href="https://jucie.org/lets-all-move-to-hawaii-maui-brewing-co-coconut-porter/" target="_blank">Let’s All Move to Hawaii (Maui Brewing Co.

<description><![CDATA[HaandBryggeriet is a small Norwegian craft brewery that along with the fine gentlemen at Mikkeller, Nogne, and…well, that’s about all I know actually, are revolutionizing Scandanavian beer making.

HaandBryggeriet seems like quite a promising brewery from their web page, depicting two killer looking Norwegian dudes chilling with a brew inbetween bottling several hundred bottles of beer in a day long session. They’re aging beer in Aquavit barrels, making sour beers and aging them, and doing so as a gesture of craftsmanship and respect for beer.

<description><![CDATA[New Belgium is an absolute powerhouse in the Craft Brewing scene — the kind where you know what they stand for even if you’ve never had their beer. The only experiences I’ve had with New Belgium’s product include a few bad experiences with the flagship beer Fat Tire, mostly while already very drunk in Los Angeles. So in other words, as always, my judgement may be off.This time, however, I approached the issue head on and with about a clear a mind as they come for me these days. La Folie is a very significant beer in our country’s brewing history because it was the innoculation point, pun intended, for a streak of brewers who ended up taking the initial experiments of Fort Collins, Colorado via Roeselare, Belgium (New Belgium’s brewer, Peter Bouckaert, came from Rodenbach) to a variety of deep levels all over California and Beyond. The barrels from the first batches of La Folie were used in other experiments by other brewers, reliving the Rodenbach tradition of sharing it’s resources with other brewers which was brutally severed by the corporate hand of Palm.

So in other words, as always, my judgement may be off.This time, however, I approached the issue head on and with about a clear a mind as they come for me these days.
La Folie is a very significant beer in our country’s brewing history because it was the innoculation point, pun intended, for a streak of brewers who ended up taking the initial experiments of Fort Collins, Colorado via Roeselare, Belgium (New Belgium’s brewer, Peter Bouckaert, came from Rodenbach) to a variety of deep levels all over California and Beyond. The barrels from the first batches of La Folie were used in other experiments by other brewers, reliving the Rodenbach tradition of sharing it’s resources with other brewers which was brutally severed by the corporate hand of Palm. The beer itself has gone through the paces at this point, now in it’s second or third incarnation, taking it’s place amongst the “Lips of Faith” beers which serve to classify the “experimental,” including a few Sour or “Wild” beers. Of course just as people say that Rodenbach and Orval have changedm they say La Folie has changed, but I wouldn’t know.
La Folie is an Oud Bruin or Flemish Brown style Sour Beer. It’s one of my favorite styles because of how it incorporates the chocolate and earthy flavors of both good brown ales and good sour beers. La Folie doesn’t dissapoint at all, pouring a deep dark brown with a very crackly head, immediately releasing lots of great barrel and sour aromas. The chocolate is big in their too, as well as on the tongue where it is very assertive. An awesome, desert like beer with a very intense sourness that is pushes the boundaries of sharpness but retains a very round flavor which comes with age. This is a blended beer as well, taking old and new batches to find the right balance. It’s awesome to have bombers of this in circulation, printed on like a regular American Style beer as opposed to being in a cork and cage. I think I’m going to have to make some friends in Fort Collins so I can get a more regular supply of this and their other sour beers. La Folie is a great example of a beer that really pays seeking out and more evidence of how huge and deep our beer culture is at this point, and it’s good to know that even a company with a message can produce awesome tasting beer.

Even though this is an appropriately dry Saison, there is a decent amount of maltiness and body, and the herbal and citrus notes do a lot to compliment that and prevent it from overwhelming the beer. One of the better Saisons to come from anywhere outside of Belgium, Nogne scores again with this very balanced, very delicious version that would go very well with almost any food imaginable — I’m thinking a nice Steak, but I’m usually thinking about Steak these days, so that doesn’t say that much. At an event at Spuyten Duyvil a little while back, I had the opportunity to sample some of the beers of Brasserie De la Senne, a Belgian brewery in the Senne Valley, where certain Belgian beer styles are said to have originated. The beers are difficult to find in the United States, and as it was a joint “event” with the greatest brewers in the world (Cantillon), I was more than pleasantly surprised to learn that Senne’s Saison is actually blended with some of Cantillon’s young Lambic beer. This Saison pours a pale golden color with a slighter quantity of carbonation than the Nogne version, but still enough to keep the drinkability nice and high. There is a tartness in both aroma and flavor here, in addition to an array of sweet, spicy, and citrus notes which all come together in one of the more complex variations on any style I’ve ever had. Easier-going than a Lambic, more adventurous than the average Saison, Senne’s version hits so many notes that really all you can say is that once again, Life is Beautiful. Also check out Senne’s website for some of the best beer label artwork ever.The post <a href="https://jucie.org/life-is-beautiful-saison-senne-and-nogne-saison/" target="_blank">Life is Beautiful (Saison Senne and Nogne Saison)</a> first appeared on <a href="https://jucie.org/" target="_blank">Time for Beer</a>.]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[When I started to ferment hard cider in my basement, I knew that I had to get deeper into the world of hard ciders. Since I grew up in New York State, which still produces a hell of a lot of apples, I definitely knew the difference between commercial, filtered and pasteurized juice, and fresh from the farm apple cider. Of course I enjoyed them both as a kid, but as an adult, I try to only drink apple cider, as opposed to what us Americans call apple “juice” — overly filtered, sugar added, bright yellow, and mostly lacking the taste of fresh apples or apples at all for that matter. My first stop on my impromptu world Hard Cider tour is the Basque region of Spain, where the tradition of the sagardotegi, or cider house, is still alive and well. Basque Cider is distinct from many other ciders of the world in that it is still, typically served from large barrels, and has many distinctive serving rituals associated with it, including, but not limited to, pouring directly from the bottle into the glass at a height of 3′ or more (sometimes behind the back) and tapping the gigantic barrels<a href="https://jucie.org/a-pile-of-apples-sarasola-sagardoa-basque-cider/" class="more_link more_link_dots"> … </a>

Of course I enjoyed them both as a kid, but as an adult, I try to only drink apple cider, as opposed to what us Americans call apple “juice” — overly filtered, sugar added, bright yellow, and mostly lacking the taste of fresh apples or apples at all for that matter.
My first stop on my impromptu world Hard Cider tour is the Basque region of Spain, where the tradition of the sagardotegi, or cider house, is still alive and well. Basque Cider is distinct from many other ciders of the world in that it is still, typically served from large barrels, and has many distinctive serving rituals associated with it, including, but not limited to, pouring directly from the bottle into the glass at a height of 3′ or more (sometimes behind the back) and tapping the gigantic barrels and filling a glass directly that way. Both of these serving methods produce bubbles that promote aromatic explosions when the Cider is consumed, and are necessary because in the bottle or from the barrel, the Cider is completely still.
Sarasola Sagardoa is one of the few Basque Ciders that makes it into the United States, brought in by the venerable distributors at B. United. It pours a bright and vibrant yellow color with tints of green and a bit of sedimental cloudiness. Drinking Sarasola was a complete revelation for me, as I’ve been searching for other “wild” tasting beverages ever since I got my hands on some Cantilon and Russian River bottles in the past few years. This Cider manages to maintain the careful balance between sour and sweet, wild and mild, and everything inbetween. A sharp, tart initial flavor is balanced and rounded by sweetness, but a dry finish makes it more drinkable than even a normal glass of Cider. Low in ABV, there is no alcohol on the nose or on the pallette, and this gentle beverage manages to maintain an enormous amount of its original apple character. Naturally fermented without the addition of yeasts or sugars, Sarasola Sagardoa is as pure and delicious as any wild fermented beverage could possibly be — deep in flavor with a tannic quality, and a very complex flavor profile that changes over time, this is perhaps the most wine-like beverage I have reviewed yet for this blog. This is a great Cider to drink with some food – and next time I am going to have it with a grilled steak like they do in Basque country. If anyone knows of any other Basque ciders I can get my hands on, let me know.
Up next, some Cider from France, and some from Brooklyn…my own.The post <a href="https://jucie.org/a-pile-of-apples-sarasola-sagardoa-basque-cider/" target="_blank">A Pile of Apples (Sarasola Sagardoa Basque Cider)</a> first appeared on <a href="https://jucie.org/" target="_blank">Time for Beer</a>.]]></content:encoded>

Victory might not be the most hyped brewery that makes the rounds of beer shops and bars in New York City, but they are pretty venerable in terms of their history of brewing distinct and unique styles — their Golden Monkey was one of the first American-Brewed Tripels, and they keep their styles diverse enough that their reasonably priced beers deserve attention. I’ve had a few of their bottles here and there, and haven’t been wowed, but the growler I purchased this morning is almost gone, and that attests to how drinkable and clean it is. At less than 6% ABV, this roasty, dark ruby beer is more drinkable than it looks. It pours with a bright, white head and the carbonation is ample — enough to really send out tons of chocolate and coffee aromas. Bags Packed has a perfect amount of body, not too heavy up front, and finishes very clean. I drank the last half of the growler at “winter room temperature,” and it was perfect — very smooth and creamy mouthfeel, nice crisp hop bitterness on the finish, with a great amount of dark flavors to finish everything up. Since it’s been a while since I’ve offensively punned, I’m going to go right ahead and say that my Bags are Packed — Pennsylvania, here I come.The post <a href="https://jucie.org/i-really-need-to-go-to-pennsylvania-victory-bags-packed-porter/" target="_blank">I Really Need To Go To Pennsylvania (Victory Bags Packed Porter)</a> first appeared on <a href="https://jucie.org/" target="_blank">Time for Beer</a>.]]></content:encoded>

After trying an Alpha King, TF’s American Pale Ale that I got as an extra in a trade a while back, and reviewing the Double IPA, Dreadnaught shortly thereafter, I knew I had to get my hands on some more. I was introduced to the Gumballhead, after hearing a lot about the beer, and the bad ass cat that adorns the label (brazenly stolen and pasted above), at the Ommegang “Belgium Comes to Cooperstown” event, where Gumballhead was flowing from the tap and was easily one of the more popular beers there, amongst many greats.
So of course, having sampled the sweet nectar of these two session brews, I quickly arranged a trade with an amazing dude who lives in Chicago that likes Captain Lawrence beers as much as I like Three Floyd’s beers, — and the rest is history. Delicious, delicious, history. I recieved one six pack of each which I was careful to share as generously as I could, although many of the 12 became quick out of the bottle brews while brewing, right after work, or at band practice. Awesome.
Alpha King is an indredibly floral and delicious Pale Ale that keeps it balanced while pushing one of the headiest hop aromas I’ve ever experienced. There’s really solid malt in this beer, a sweet and almost bready base that supports the awesome bitterness and insanely complex nose. Lots of citrus, a little bit of pine, well shit I can’t even accurately describe it — the smell is amazing and must be experienced. A low alcohol session beer that is so flavorful and balanced that you can’t believe it. Obviously I’m not saying very much that’s original or even insightful about this beer — I tend to lose my words when I’m so in love with a beer. This is Life Is Beautiful — just drink it, don’t ask questions.
Gumballhead is an American wheat beer that pours a beautiful clear golden color and has the perfect amount of yeasty smells to keep it authentic. There is a formidable hop presence to this beer as well, which gives, with its bitterness and slight hop aroma, a nice American Craft twist on the classic wheat beer. Out of the bottle or into any kind of glass this beer will completely satisfy you and amaze you with how deep the flavors can get. I prefer this one on the colder side, as when it warms up it becomes a bit too much with the nose kicking you in the face (hm?) but for real, you can’t go wrong here. Grab as many of these as you can and drink them fresh like they want to be drank. And if you can get this on tap, I officially hate you!The post <a href="https://jucie.org/life-is-beautiful-three-floyds-alpha-king-and-gumballhead/" target="_blank">Life is Beautiful (Three Floyd’s Alpha King and Gumballhead)</a> first appeared on <a href="https://jucie.org/" target="_blank">Time for Beer</a>.]]></content:encoded>

I bring this up because during the course of reading the aforementioned tome on Beerthinking, I was repeatedly assaulted with what is most certainly one of the foremost questions in Beerosophy, namely: “Is any beer objectively ‘good,’ or is it all just taste and opinion?” I’m not interested in discussing this quesiton here, as it’s too complex and not all that interesting in the end, but I will point out that the same tack taken in pursuing the line of arguing that all beer tastes, and by extension all tastes in general, are inherently personal and subjective, are often leverage by beer nerds against wine snobs who pay $300 for a bottle of wine and say things like “I won’t drink wine with a screwtop” or “French wine is unequivocally best.” We love beer because everyone drinks beer, right? Because anyone can appreciate it? Give me a break. You drink it because you like it and maybe because you can skate by for a couple of years on the wine vs. beer argument, but in the end, a beer nerd, ( or a “beer douche,” according to the Beer Retard ) will always show his true colors by doing things like buying beer books, writing blogs, making dumb comments, etc. But I digress. What the hell does this have to do with the North Coast Pranqster?
Pranqster is by many accounts one of the first American produced Belgian-styled beers that was successful in approaching the complexity and deliciousness of Belgian beers. A “Duvel-like” strong pale ale, at 7.6%, this was a stark contrast to any beers being offered at the time, and displayed a committment to the craft that was astonishing to many. Hearing many people wax nostalgic about how awesome it was to stumble upon this back in the day, I had to give it a shot.
Unfortunately, my taste buds have been sharpened and worked out by many Belgian-styled american beers and even more actual Belgian beers by the time I got to the Pranqster that I was left underwhelmed. While a perfect rendition in body, carbonation, color, aroma, and even taste, of a Belgian strong ale, this beer offered me nothing that I couldn’t get elsewhere. If I were going to drink an American Duvel-like beer, at this point in history, there are so many to choose from that I doubt I would find myself going back to this one very often. A fine beer in and of itself, and if I was into rating brews I would rate this highly, but even after sitting out in my room for an hour, warming up, and continuously sipping, I couldn’t find anything in this beer that wowed me. A good beer, but not a great one. I need to try other North Coast offerings whose reputations don’t proceed them quite so strongly.
In other words, sometimes you flog the legend, and sometimes the legend flogs you.The post <a href="https://jucie.org/flogging-a-legend-north-coast-pranqster/" target="_blank">Flogging a Legend (North Coast Pranqster)</a> first appeared on <a href="https://jucie.org/" target="_blank">Time for Beer</a>.]]></content:encoded>

Not that this scenario is in any way particular to Belgium, or even the Belgian regions known for producing Saison, but in the case of Brasserie a Vapeur, one of the oldest and well-known producers of Saison, it’s quite a statement that they’re still producing the same core of beers that they were as little as a decade ago.

I have tried to get through two newer bottles of this beer, adorned as they are with a half naked woman and a stoned looking jester, with little success. One was so “light-struck” (the big boy name for SKUNKED) that I had a hard time finishing it, and the other was infected or something and spat out 3/4 of the bottle in foam form. I collected as much as I could and tried to drink it, but it was pretty ruined.
The 12 year old bottle of Folie I sampled was an entirely different story. A corked and capped big green bottle seems like it would have little chance of “making it” this far, but it did quite well. The cork was soaked and a bit disintegrated when I pulled it out, and immediately I knew I was in for something quite different from a “traditional” or should I say “modern-traditional” Saison, even a “spiced Saison” when I smelled it. The nose was closer to a lambic or American wild Ale than the spiciness and hoppiness associated with Saisons. The beer smelled acidic, a bit fruity, and had some of the more “farmy” qualities you would expect from a Saison as well. Basically, complex as hell and equally tasty. Drinking this was quite an experience — this beer was exceptionally dry and tasted very much like limes, but not as much in a burning citric way as a floral way, know what I’m saying? It poured a beautiful pale golden color with little head and maintained a nice amount of carbonation considering the age, but didn’t have the full bubbly profile you would expect from a Saison.
Purchasing and drinking this beer was an extremely rewarding experience, and I’ve noticed how many bars and shops around NYC carry vintage Vapeur bottles. I highly recommend picking any of these up. There’s some 1989 bottles floating around at bars for reasonable prices, and I’m dying to get my hands on one.The post <a href="https://jucie.org/12-year-old-country-air-1996-vapeur-en-folie/" target="_blank">12 Year Old Country Air (1996 Vapeur en Folie)</a> first appeared on <a href="https://jucie.org/" target="_blank">Time for Beer</a>.]]></content:encoded>
