getting progressively more tipsy (Beerfest 2018)

[@strwrsgirl13]

It's extra funny to watch the "Let's go to Barkerville... not actual Barkerville" part after Road Quest

[@Haights]

14:09 THE FORESHADOWING.

[@Haights]

14:18 I mean, "We got distracted on the way to Barkerville" is just a good summary of the first few RQ episodes, innit

[@ericdhubbard]

Graham, you should get a LoadingReadyRun growler produced, and sell it as the GrowLRR.

[@GrahamStarkVlogs]

+ericdhubbard 😮😮😮 we SHOULD

[@dahudlefthanded]

I'd buy one!

[@SmaugUKA]

ericdhubbard I think you just started something here. Be on the lookout for it. How Graham replied to it showed major interest.

[@dragonbretheren]

If I got some of these names wrong, please correct me - I'm not a drinker.

[@David_J.E.]

So.. does Matt not age or do you just un-freeze him every time you want to include him in a vlog.

[@Cowcow211]

'I've had, I don't want to count how many I've had.' Ok, Graham channelling Jonny right there.

[@TheTotalIgnorance]

0:50 DAT GLARE THO

[@wormspeaker]

That's the kind of look you give when you unexpectedly spot a cheating ex across the room.

[@TheTotalIgnorance]

Wait! is that her walking in on her ex at 22:40

[@Oliver_JW]

That's some grade A+ side eye.

[@elkboy888]

Not positive but it looks like Graham might have grazed her as he past by. Still, at a beer fest one should expect the odd bump (depending on how long the event has been running at that point). Fine motor skills be damned!

[@MrJones-fq9rx]

That was great. The beer count showed in the voice, but not in the footage quality. :)

[@RecklessFables]

Autofocus and HDR for the win

[@IRikuXIII]

Great to see you all having so much fun! Kudos on managing consistent vlog coverage throughout the day, while sampling the delicious beers

[@Yhelta]

Is it strange that drunk Graham is only marginally sillier than normal Graham?

[@MaraK_dialmformara]

Well, we do usually see him in comedy mode...

[@Yhelta]

True...

[@BobbyBoxhair]

Now, Normal Graham doing Drunk Adam Jensen, on the other hand...

[@milamber319]

The effects start being noticeable about min 7 1/2. i shall keep watching to find out how drunk he gets lol

[@milamber319]

Noticeably exaggerated mannerisms by 14 min lol

[@taknarian]

I'm a huge fan of the fact that drunk Graham is just Dave's Spokesman.

[@MaraK_dialmformara]

Not a beer fan, but I've discovered I _am_ the kind of person who will watch anything you put up. (I did share this with my boyfriend's dad, who just retired from teaching brewing history.) Also, nice haircut.

[@steelfox13]

Coming back 3 years later and this was the video that made me branch out and fall in love with sours. Thank you Graham!

[@Doom5115]

out here in colorado we have an annual beer festivel called the great american beerfest which back in 2014 had roughly 700 breweries in attendence and is one of the largest beer festivals in the states

[@Ardanae]

'Ooh, thats nice' should be Graham's catchphrase.

[@HuggyBearx64]

Most Canadian beer coverage ever. "This is nice. Oh that's nice. This one's really nice."

[@WiresAndChords]

0:51 - such angry

[@brennonr]

Amazing! How does Matt look younger since we last saw him??

[@morganharrison1136]

The only person to make 25 minutes of "that's nice!" Really entertaining. Thanks for another vlog, Graham!

[@t3hf1gm3nt9]

21:16 I FOUND WALDO!

[@varmintx0]

Been watching for well over a decade now...I don't remember ever seeing a drunk Graham before. It was quite entertaining.

[@aziraphalesshop]

Tipsy Graham, plus camera angle gave me some brief flashes of Sir Digby Chicken Caesar.

[@ThinEndOfTheSWedge]

I thought exactly the same thing!

[@MichaelCastorano]

Add the beer list to the info!

[@EricOrang]

Starting to sound like Drunk Jensen around 17:30

[@SeraphimKnight]

Raspberry Changeling Artifact - Beer Changeling (This beer is all beer types)

[@Niniju8970]

It would have the ability Changeling. Changeling is not a subtype.

[@brandonrichard9568]

Shapeshifter sub-type. Boom. Solved.

[@wizkida981015]

The quality of this video improved in direct correlation with the amount of beer consumed. A++. Also, Godspeed, Bear-man.

[@Masterlitchuk]

Phrase of the day...'Ohhhh that's goooood!' ;) Looks like your all had fun Sir. Nice video made me smile on a grey, bad news day! Thanks

[@DudelidouX42]

Next time try Trou du Diable. It's one of my favorite brewery in Québec. Really love their shawinigan handshake.

[@MangaVally]

That was a very fun watch. Hope you do it again

[@TomHanrahan]

If you're in the UK in May next year I recommend the Cambridge Beer Festival. It was 200+ different beers (ales) this year, as well as ciders, perries, meads and fancy lagers and it lasts a week. (p.s I thought it was pronounced go-zz )

[@MadMontyMN]

"Godspeed Bear-Man!" I laughed.

[@MadMontyMN]

Also 21:20. Found him.

[@SosaStarlight]

Graham and James have now been to real Barkerville. Would Jimmy like the beer?

[@afgeaj1]

"It's really nice."

[@johngoff3426]

Wiggins sightings!

[@devsfan19]

14:09 foreshadowing for roadquest

[@buchanan1966]

Have to agree on the sour beers. Had the Cran-Gose from Devil's Backbone this weekend and loved it.

[@azninsect]

I thoroughly enjoyed the...progression to a joyous afternoon at Beerfest :D Really enjoy the vlogs, Graham :D

[@mimicranch]

Holy crap, Backroads is from where I'm from! The brewmaster there is the former brewmaster of Nelson Brewing Company, another excellent brewery.

[@peanut3009]

17:05 That look of shock, to that cutaway. That's a good bit.

[@mtgcarver]

I almost went to beerfest since we were in Victoria this weekend. Would have loved to run into you guys. Decided to go down to Chinatown and eat at Jam instead. Looks like I missed out on drunk Graham. 👍😏

[@orienlouttit6160]

Wheel house I believe is from Prince Rupert BC.

[@marklittle7976]

First few beers.. "citrus/smokey/sour".... Seven beers in... "oooh that's nice"... "ooh that's nice"... "oooh that's nice" 😂 😂 😂 love it Graham!

[@ShackledRage]

This was amazing, you should do beer fest again next year!

[@xh1199]

"Alright, last beer of the day" smash cut to another beer.

[@TheAmazingTGIF]

This was a really nice video. It's really nice.

[@mally25]

I also don't like sours, but this year at beer fest I think they figured it out. My fave of the day was Strathcona Mango lemon, it tasted like a beer mimosa

[@PantherAssaultCannon]

So the beer I'm most curious about is one of the only ones that you didn't say who made it: The Peach Gin Sour from around the 7:50 mark. Who put that together?

[@TheUnspokenKibbles]

I'm allergic to beer, why am I even watching this? Oh. Tipsy Graham. Right.

[@TheOneMiffy92]

I am so sorry for your delibating disability through life, and hope you still find happiness at the bottom of a mead bottle.

[@TheUnspokenKibbles]

Eh, I find I prefer mixed drinks anyway. Of course, it's easy to prefer "does not make me throw up" to "makes me throw up," so I can't exactly speak from the position of a perceptive palate.

[@funkymankevx]

I think this was my 10th year going, GCBF is always a blast! Cool video.

[@irishbear8383]

17:25 is when they sit down and finally let the drunk materialize

[@Scrizati]

Yesss join us with the sours! But seriously Strange Fellows is perhaps my favourite brewery of all time. The Bridge Brewing blood orange and bourbon is disappointing for me because it's neither blood orange or bourbon enough

[@gravitycannon]

I made a mistake watching this at 7am- and i want to find out what's going on with Canadian sours now, cheers G.

[@rodvincent]

Albertan here. We also have an amazing local brewery scene. We have SO many good sours and saisons. It's mad.

[@gravitycannon]

oo good to know. when i eventually take a trip through north america will keep that in mind as a stop, thanks =D

[@itwashimmusic]

God speed bear man. First shirt from the GVlog?

[@bv310]

Oh man, they have that Grisette canned over in SK. It goes down real good when it's cold

[@J4c03]

can you send some of that rain a little bit farther south please?

[@TimeTravelingBunnis]

Oh man Graham, sounded like you were feeling it at the end there. Cheers!

[@aaronbeaveridge2338]

It is probably my imagination, but I think I ran the 50m track and field event at that park when I was a kid.

[@StapleCactus]

I thought I recognized that "growler" from Dice Friends. Just so happens that I'm rewatching these and there it is.

[@Inorisso]

Gotta say, as someone who doesn't drink at all, this was still VERY enjoyable to watch, keep it up! :D

[@Maximilianus101]

I don't drink beer. But I could listen to Graham read the goddamn phone book and I'd still be entertained.

[@hatchcrazy]

8:07 I was 1000% expecting Graham to say "...this hat."

[@Haights]

There may be better sources for brews...

[@FluidGurl]

Watching in 2020 after watching Road Quest: you know what else they have in Squamish? You guys for like a couple hours lol

[@JennyDelest]

Ok, new business venture for LRR: let us pay you to come to Victoria and go to breweries with you. Cards Against Humanity for a bonus fee.

[@Craul08]

I guess growler means something else in Canada lol.

[@madAlric]

growler = half-gallon container as far as i know. aside from the nice design, that looks like every growler i've ever bought.

[@Winterpandacookies]

As someone who doesn't like beer that much, I kinda want to go to the Oktoberfest/Beerfest in my college town now

[@Raphtyr]

I like how they tell us how awesome the brewery hats are and then completely neglect to show us any!

[@danniluxgarbe429]

In fairness to ICBC, I've attended a Beerfest-type event as a Designated Driver. the DD bracelets had the same writing, but were a different base color. As for why I attended, none of my friends trusted themselves to not fall asleep on the bus, and (much to my brother-in-law's chagrin) I can't tolerate the taste of beers, so there was zero risk of me being tempted after 6 hours on my feet with nothing to drink but chilled water.

[@mrbreeze3954]

0:51 what happened to that girl right behind you?

[@ChrisWood]

Bearman is not the hero Victoria needs, but the hero Victoria deserves.

[@DragongodZenos]

As someone who doesn't drink beer of alcohol in general, this was cool to watch and makes me want to try small sips of various beers to learn how to appreciate beer

[@Mattteus]

12:34 the face you make when you get a text but you're still filming

[@stephenphilips8024]

How was Ian not here?

[@chan742]

Rain+drinking+sharing drinks. I'm pretty sure all of Victoria will have a cold by the end of the week.

[@DeadnCold]

Ok, now I want a Drunk Graham game stream. I don't care what he plays, I just want to see more of happy drunk Graham.

[@EternalDensity]

I think Graham is talking about shades of blue and indie game developers?

[@bl4xb0x1]

I will admit, when I started working at a brewery, I found my palate agreeable to sours. I now love me sours.

[@DERIKTHEGENERAL]

I'm also a fan of sours, and have recently got the same glasses as Graham, basically the same person.

[@SmaugUKA]

If you go to a massive beer tasting and don't end up at least with a REALLY good buzz on, you're doing something wrong.

[@LaughingComedian]

17:10, the moment all that alcohol started to hit Graham.

[@Ghost26968]

Watching Graham's ability to keep the camera steady progressively get worse is just hilarious.

[@thenintendoguy643]

Matt has returned! Now he can tell me how to make budget mtg angel decks

[@MichealDraven]

you went to a beer fest without ian? dafuq

[@sankethbhaskar4236]

MichealDraven Yeah, I was like, someone better hold Ian down

[@GravedSanctuary]

Ian is probably sitting somewhere where they bring beer to him, while he sits down by the fire.

[@DaveTube145]

It was almost to the point that each beer was better than the last, as the drinking continued.. but then there was that cucumber one. Anyway, looked like a good time.

[@Huschel1988]

I was going to say. The beer got suspiciously better, the more that had been consumed.

[@Kithas]

Watching graham's face get progressively redder, is quite fun. Also I miss matt.

[@Luteloots]

How is this not something Ian would go to?

[@n0where189]

James is here even though he was in the Assorted Anyonymous and The Couch videos....Are we trying to kill him? He JUST got clean!

[@kyler133]

Are those glass cups? Canada, you so classy and trusting.

[@superbadluck7895]

I can hear the drunk.

[@andyhill5712]

I love how much shorter Matt is than Graham and James

[@grmunch]

"It's the summer beer of me". Lol

[@SnowmanTF2]

20:15 God Speed, Bear Man

[@Chatty_Protagonist]

15:07 for adorkable couple on the background.

[@hunterking87]

Lol i see its raining like it was here in western Washington.

[@thecx]

It has been said before, but I'll say it again. Drunk Graham is the best Graham. Drunk Matt is best too. James seemed quite sober, actually.

[@MustNotContainSpaces]

Ok, rant time: Berliner Weiße is NOT 'traditionally' flavored with syrup. Traditionally it was flavored by dumping fruit in the barrel whil it was ins storage. However, proper traditional Weiße has been lost. Why? Because it was a sour beer which relied on a combination of yeast and a special strain of lactic acid bacteria, however what the brewers didn't know was that these bacteria lived in the wood barrels which were used for storage. So when the brewery changed from wooden to steel barrels they were suddently confronted with the fact, that their new beer was sh!t. Unfortunately by the point they realised what they had done it was to late and they had already trashed all the old barrels. And this is where the syrup-thing comes from, since the idea was that if you dump a bunch of syrup in the beer, people will not notice that its actually crap. - rant over

[@TheMrVengeance]

What's the problem with having thrown away the barrels? You can literally just buy Pediococcus and Lactobacillus cultures. Especially nowadays, it's common for making Lambic style beers. (See eg.: Wyeast 5733, Wyeast 5335) Or do you mean that the original Berliner Weiße had some different sort of mystery lactic acid bacteria strain?

[@Archangel72985]

I feel like when Graham says "that is fascinating" is like when I say food or drink is "interesting". That is to say "I'm not into it but it is a thing i can see someone else liking."

[@Archangel72985]

Also if Unibroue had their Maudite there I would have happily just had it and not cared that they didn't do anything different. Then again I can't get it around where I am and I love Abbey style / Trappist ales.

[@bentheman8112]

I'm from cologne, the city where Kölsch is from. In Germany it's forbidden to call your beer Kölsch if it hasn't been brewed in the city of cologne

[@alexsduthie23]

You guys should experience the great kiwi beer festival

[@EmilyGridlock]

jeez, graham is like my beer-twin, preference wise

[@theoges]

Take a drink every time they say nice. Then call an ambulance.
