if you like black coffee, never go to dunkin. they only get away with shit coffee because they add a ton of milk and sugar to it. wawa is mediocre. as much as i hate the starbucks aura, it's the only decent place near here (20 min) with good black coffee.

lmao at waiting for beer releases.

Agree 100% with your coffee assessment.

That line is nuts. Shit I get angry if I get up before the coffee starts to auto brew. Always nice to wake up to fresh pot rather than wait.

Line took 35 minutes

Because I’m not a regular coffee drinker I get pretty caffeined up off coffee and espresso.  Usually I’ll drink a sugar free red bull before I go to karaoke for extra wings. The one Mexican cold brew they sell at Whole Foods is pretty good..it’s slightly sweet and sort of a cinnamon flavor. 

That Mexican cold brew sounds good. Is it pre-made or is it made to order?

black + a shot. only way to go. mexicoffee is decent for a little change of pace but just a cup or two will do.

Agree with that as well. Too much easily available beer to wait in lines for a beer. 

[PSUFrankenstein]

I've never waited in line for a beer release.  I know people that used to wait in line all day for new Tired Hands releases.  I drink a lot of iced coffee...usually make a pot of coffee at night, then put it in the fridge after it cools down and drink it the next day. 

Drove past a few grocery stores earlier and they were completely mobbed...people buying stuff for Mothers day I guess

I’ve heard of bang but never seen it.  Do they sell it at mini markets??  I did try cocaine energy drink and it was nasty.  

 

Oh i forgot tomorrow is mother’s day..

I know that the sunoco around here has it, along with an exxon. not sure if they have an agreement with the manufacturer or not but i'd start there. those are the 16oz cans. My wife showed me some energy shot style, like a bigger 5hr energy bottle. I'm waiting for someone to start using it for mixed drinks. itd be like 4loko 2.0

We buy whole bean and grind it fresh, nothing beats the flavor.  I typically add cinnamon to the grounds and depending upon the day, I’ll add cayenne pepper, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, smoked chipotle, etc. too.  The spices add a hint of flavor not normally encountered in your typical store coffee.

Forgot about the bagel posts a whil ago, meant to chime in. Best bagel store hands down is the bagel exp in brodheadsville. The key is the water. I was told they truck in NYC public water for production. 

That's not to discredit tarponheads, I'm sure those are amazing. Baking pics are on point.

My dad got one last week, but he’s not in law enforcement nor is my mom.  They’re available to anyone to here 🤷‍♂️
 

He too was negative.

I did it one morning and didn’t tell the wife.  She came up to the “office” later in the morning and asked if I thought the coffee was spicy.

Lebanon and Dauphin counties are doing the same supposedly. Dauphin includes Harrisburg and suburbs so I'm a little surprised they're reopening early
