What beer are you drinking now? #2055

The sun came out this morning after hiding for 2 days. We did need rain. Cheers

 

Pretty cool label & glass there.

 

Good morning NA BAs and good afternoon Euro BAs! It's another overcast gloomy day here in NW PA - looks like summer! Today's New Breakfast Beer is:



An aromatic spiced take on an English Strong Ale - pleasing aroma and taste but a bit thin and watery.

 

partly sunny...

 

I'm not sure if the kids bought this because it's an APA or for the name Pabst . . .



Clear deep golden color with white cap.

Aroma of piney, herbal hops resting on a mild grain base.

Flavor is hop forward but it doesn't come across as overly bitter. The hop flavors of herbs and pine lean more toward sharpness yet have a touch of citrus like sweetness. Flavors resolve on a dry note but hops are definitely the Belle of the Ball here.

 

Good Morning and Happy Hump Day Ba
off from work today as new windows and intercom are being installed in my apartment..to make the day go easier i busted open a favorite..CBS..Cheers!!

 

That actually sounds kind of decent, might have to give it a whirl one of these days....

 

Hydrating and getting ready to put on woods clothing to go out looking for mushrooms. This beer is available reasonably priced, fresh on the shelf, and I enjoy it as much as beers from Trillium and Tree House.

Gonna be looking for these, which aren't native but escaped from captivity and are becoming very widespread, and are even more delicious than the native varieties of oyster mushrooms. Pretty too. Golden Oyster they are called

And these, common name black trumpets. Native, very strong flavored and delicious. Hard to find, but worth the search. They grow in leaves in moist woods next to sweet birch and oak.

 

Morning BA's



have been rushing around in the evenings trying to work on this old plywood sailboat I bought for $100 2 years ago - hope to enter it in an Antique Boat Show here in a few weeks



it was built from plans - called a Stevenson Weekender - pretty cool

 

Having a Vlaamsche Leeuw Donker in the late afternoon Sun.

Cheers!

 

A cold Hazy Little Thing with my very spicy bean dip and tortilla chip lunch.

Cheers All !

 

The Finger Lakes - really a beautiful part of the state. Hope you get some nice weather while you're there.

 

Today is a special day which calls for a special beer - but later. 16 yrs ago today I underwent a laparoscopic nephrectomy. Part of me will always be w my little brother. I do not have a beer that old or one w the correct number but I think this will do !
