What beer are you drinking now? #1468

Another under rated album Kansas. Really dig this song & Rainmaker



Moving on to an Enjoy By 10-31-16 Tangerine ( last nights draft offfering was better ).

 

Yup. One of my all time favorites. Very different from album to album just to warn you. Very good in both genres though

 

I love me some Michael Myers and some Donald Pleasence.

Would you mind throwing a top 31 list up when you're mission is complete and tagging me?

 

I started at #11. (Because I have a thing for prime numbers) I will be happy to share the whole list with you. And I was kidding. H20 is not on it. The next four are great horror films and the tie in with Halloween (the day) is strong. At least the top 3 are.

 

Hey hey LNBAs! Hectic week at work and finalizing things on the new house purchase. I definitely earned this always delicious nightcap.



Off to Denver for a work conference tomorrow-Wednesday. Should have a few new-to-me beer pictures for you over the next few days. I know Denver is a great beer city, but I haven't been there before. Pretty excited...and the weather forecast looks gorgeous. I have the most free time tomorrow and Saturday, so will try to do some exploring. Sunday-Wednesday is pretty packed.

I did manage to squeeze a day in Vegas with a buddy on the back end. Because why not? Will be a fun release after working 10 straight days in some capacity.

Cheers all!

 

I was hoping you were kidding but I didn't want to be too much of an asshole about it.

 

... and crossed the finish line with this last one from the Box of Hops ...



... unfortunately it's convoluted and not the same beer it used to be ('had to dump this one, sadly to say ).

So poured a glass of local redemption instead to make up for it!



(selfie pose) Great beer, Ooooo-hh yeah!



... errrrr .... I mean ....





Regardless, a great local beer!

Prost!

 

I'll tell it like it is. Thirsty Thursday is kicking my ass tonight.

 

I tried to bait you. You didn't take it. Cheers to you and your even temperament. lol.

 

The Replacements. Paul Westerberg's voice never got the recognition it deserved in my opinion.

 

...two supers and a wonderful!

 

A nice, fresh, hoppy amber, it's good!

 

Yet another Old Style but with something new. A house made tonic (not my house) and gin.



So I'm makin' love to my tonic..and gin.

 

Still tasting fantastic! Flavors of huge tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple, peach, mango, apricot, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, lemon zest, orange peel, light pepper, and pine hops; with some honey/toasted bread malt balance; and herbal/floral/grassy hop earthiness. Moderate pine/citrus rind/peppery bitterness on the finish. Medium bodied sticky/resinous mouthfeel, with some grainy malt creaminess. Very dry and crisp finish. Hops are still really bright and dank. Got 1 left in the 6 pack I bought, I think. Still holding up extremely well, as expected with pretty much all of Short's IPAs I've had. I've had some that were still great after 6 months.


Incredible again this year. Flavors of huge milk/dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, cinnamon, vanilla, cream, nutmeg, chile pepper, caramel, brown sugar, toffee, and toasted brown bread. Light roast/spice bitterness on the finish. Medium-full bodied; great creamy/silky mouthfeel with some light sticky/chalky roast/spice notes as well. Lightly drying. Zero pepper heat. Balance is pretty much perfect between spices and stout flavors. Glad I grabbed a full 6er this year for once, will not be my only one.


Always incredible, one of the best pumpkin ales I've had. Flavors of big pumpkin, clove, allspice, caramel, brown sugar, gingerbread, toast, cinnamon, nutmeg, and herbal spice earthiness. Balancing herbal/spice bitterness against sweetness on the finish. Medium bodied; balanced malt creaminess and spice stickiness in the mouthfeel. Lightly drying spice finish. Glad we get these in state now. This is probably the most authentic actual pumpkin-fruit forward beer I have had; with an amazing balance of spices. Definitely my go-to fresh pumpkin ale this year. 2015 Southern Tier and Weyerbacher are still lingering on the shelf, but still taste awesome too.


Cheers

 

Did not read all the posts tonight. But gotta say I posted some incredible wild horse pics. (Vids are even harder). No one cared. No one asked a question. Understood. A beer post site. Sorry, my bad.

 

I prefer a Pennsylvania Amish raised bird.

 

Last one for this long day. Cheers and goodnight.

 

My temperament is far from even. Just ask those Toyota Corolla drivin', JC Penney suit wearing, NPR listenin' suburbanites on I-55 that think they can cut you off for no reason at 6am. We're all stuck in traffic!

Baits I do not fall for, usually. I tend to be the one setting the trap most often so I can usually sniff it out.

 

Like it but it is true!
