What beer are you drinking now? #1461

thanks @duff247

 

This stuff is legit, dry and pretty bitter.

 

Is that the Toppling Goliath sign?

 

Fullsteam Lucky Straw.

 

Real quick hit since I just got home. Want to get it out to give you procrastinators time to run out to the store tonight, if need be:


Thanks to @LeperJim for the adjustments in the graphics. He keeps throwing in classic AALs - wonder if that's foreshadowing of his choice for the theme day?

So, if you haven't already, go buy a beer you haven't had in a while and be prepared to:

1. Drink it tomorrow with a bunch of us
2. Tell the whole lot of us about why that beer fits the theme for you and what you think about it

That's about it. I'll give the full details tomorrow early AM - hope to hear from you tomorrow on Flashback Friday.

(now to check to see if anyone ignored my reminders of the change of day, and perhaps enjoy an after work beer)

 

A cellar pull surprise, Mini-Growler Imperial Stout, a collab between Westbrook and Evil Twin. It's fantastic, so smooth and chocolatey sweet. Cheers!

 

Just, oh you know...visiting one of the Midwest's most acclaimed breweries.





Belgian Quad is different from BBA one. Alternate. It's much milder and very tasty...not that the BBA version is anything to scoff at. Very friendly folks.

 

Hey @TheIPAHunter .... I almost matched you with the DDH Sleeper, but I went with the DDH Summer direction... cheers!

Fantastic Double Dry Hopped Summer Street from Trillium, courtesy of @Frio7 Thanks dude!

 

No, outside Disgruntled Brewing in Perham Mn.

 

Enjoying this latter-day classic. Happy Thursday and cheers BA !!

 

My life is now complete (don't tell the GF I said that after this many years with her)!! I'll take the award, even if it's a pity victory. I don't know that it is. I'm just hearing things. People are saying. (Sorry, too much debate last night )

I was a little worried that although I straightened up the bottle cap pretty well, the Leinenkugel's label is pointing a little to the left of the photo .
In seriousness, thanks for the win, staff!! Getting this award is truly...


A Maine Beer Company beer to celebrate my one day reign as GotD king, this is a good day. Maybe to get even better as I hope to meet up with a fellow BA this evening. Cheers all!

 

I gotta give it to ya, @Barracudas ...I always enjoy the little games you play on this thread, and look forward to seeing if I can catch on. You know how to keep it fresh my friend !

R, L, R, L ...what could be next?

 

Since you have done this in a running theme, I forgive this premature "Throwing/Flashing Back" - I mean hey, it happens to everyone once in a while

 

I had this a few days ago and it was outstanding.

 

Pity Victory?! Now I'm just sad.... Don't let the voices convince you of such negativity. The Staff abides by an unbiased stringent protocol to ensure only the best of the best be awarded each day ! Enjoy the award...don't sell the glass or yourself short! Cheers!

 

Doing some reviews on this rainy evening. This another very nice beer.

 

Ha! Just kidding. I was between having fun "pandering" last night and seeing if the glass would win "on its own." Just playing with my inner conflict over my choice .

That glass is actually from the first ever beer/food pairing I ever attended about, gosh, 7-8 years ago (the best pairings I've enjoyed, also - maybe due to the novelty at the time).
