This really irks me and think I just need to vent. I notice that some restaurants will serve a standard IPA in a 12oz glass while most places (even the brewery) will serve it in a 16oz glass. Does this put anyone else off going back to that restaurant?

Last night I went out to a restaurant. They served Fuzzy Baby Ducks in a 12oz glass for $10. I thought that was ludicrous! The price did not bother me as much as them pouring it into a 12oz instead of 16oz glass. Lookup this beer at New England Brewing and they serve it 16oz for $8. Most restaurants will serve it in a 16oz glass.

I understand smaller glasses for double or triple IPA due to higher ABV. But, when they do this to a standard IPA, I feel like the restaurant is ripping people off. It’s always the places that think they are “fancy” that do this. It’s disgusting and they need to stop.

Anyone else share this opinion? Or am I just a cranky old man?

I've been really curious about improving my power curve and trying to get stronger for specific times on the curve (5 min - 10 min for my local small climbs). I just came across a feature in workout creator (connect web) that allows to create a step based on x% of power curve, called "Power Curve Interval". Do you think this is a useful feature and how do you approach using this in your training?

I want to buy my wife a new sewing machine for our wedding anniversary. She’s been sewing for like 20 years using an old Kenmore computerized machine that broke last year and nobody around here seems to know how to fix it, so she’s given up on fixing it. I want her to have something really nice and reliable. Budget is about $500 to $700 (I have no idea what a good sewing machine costs)
