Late Night Beeradvocate - Sunday

So sad to hear, having a Hoptimum and thought this was appropriate:


Cheers and thanks for all the great music, good times ~

 

Destihl Antiquity Rye Wine was excellent, very dry and not too sweet; Liefman's Cuvee Brut, always a favorite; De Molen's Cease and Desist was good, but not better then plenty of other U.S. Stouts for less money; Sixpoint's Spice of Life Apollo tasted like really good weed; and I'm very pleasantly surprised by Pipework's Close Encounter double stout, a hoppy monster that stands up to Stone's and Founders' RIS' to close out this Mothers' Day.

 

Say fear is a man's best friend. Good choice.

 

So, that thing I said about keeping it cheap?

I am such a liar.



Opened the fridge and it called to me. Who am I to resist?

I've gotta have this to compare to the Abraxas I have in the fridge as well.

 

Started with a bomber of drake's denogginizer ...mmmm....moved on to a Founders Imperial Stout...taking a trip down memory lane of concerts past...I cant believe these vids exist...

 

And another one…


About to watch this DVD…

 

120 Min IPA

 

Keegan Ales Mother Milk Stout
Seemed appropriate.

 

Nope. I failed. No beer for me today. Thought about opening something but I just didn't want to get into something so heavy this late at night . . . counter-intuitive, I know. So instead I improvised something with vodka, rum, lime juice, dark brown sugar, and some fruity herbal tea I cold-brewed earlier today.

And it's good! But I'm a terrible beer drinker. I'm always DD and don't like opening beers after a certain point in the evening, unless I'm at a party or out at a bar. So I apologize, BeerAdvocate community, for being a terrible beer drinker.

I'll open either the Stateside or the Insanity tomorrow—I promise.

 

Moved on to my first ever Yeti! Very tasty!!

 

Opened a New Glarus Rasberry Tart at a cookout, my wife's favorite beer(happy Mother's day to her)...came home opened a Bitter Valentine...real nice...sipping on a KBS now...

 

Been meaning to ask: is that Andrew WK, friend of David Tibet?

 

I had a very nice, beery Sunday (see NBS for the longer version) and saw the news about Duck on a friends FB post a while ago. Right now toasting Mr. Dunn's memory with a Tripel Entendre from Sound Brewing. This is the song my buddy posted for Duck. I had never heard it, and it kicks some funky ass! Cheers Duck!

 

Haha no need to apologize, I personally am intrigued by your vodka rum lime dark brown sugar in fruity tea mix! Looking forward to hearing about the Stateside and/or Insanity tomorrow! Cheers bro ~

 

Tonight its a Westmalle Trappist Tripel and Surly Bitter Brewer. Listening to Jack White.

 

Had a Ten Fidy, Holy Moses, and a Red Eye earlier. About to take a look into my fridge...

 

For sure, man. They're both new to me so whatever I drink, I'll review it. I'm expecting to drink (and review) a handful of other new ones, sometime soon: Unibroue La Fin du Monde, Unibroue Maudite, Great Divide Hades*, Weyerbacher Double Simcoe*, Southampton Biere de Mars*, Great Divide Yeti, and this might be the week for a number of bigger bottles I've got laying around . . . we shall see. *Already had these before, but not in a setting where I was taking notes or writing a review.

 

nightcap...

 

Also, it's a good drink but I would have preferred to use a little honey and triple sec, maybe skip the brown sugar, have stronger tea and do it over ice—but you take what you can get. I have no ice or honey, couldn't get the triple sec bottle open (cap's crusted shut), and the tea hadn't steeped as long as I would've liked. Eh.
