What beer are you drinking now? #2298

Well took @GreenBayBA advice and headed over to Windmill after stopping at Harold's. Got me a NWI Lite. It was about as much as a human stomach can handle while eating Harold's Chicken. I win internet with this. Game over don't need to play anymore I officially announce my retirement. Do you accept it?

Well maybe I'll have a few more a bit later but, time to take a nap and watch some movies with my own cat.

 

I don't get hangovers unless I drink like an entire bottle of jack daniels. Fortunately for me a half bottle is plenty

 

Sticking with a sessionable German theme with this Hefeweizen from @woodychandler...

No offense to any Pirates fans, but I had to break out my STL Ballpark Village glass. This sudden warm up has me ready for baseball. My son's high school team has already been practicing and Spring Training is right around the corner.

Obligatory? music pairing...

Cheers all!

 

Relaxing by the woodstove today.



Have a good one....

 

Home now, on the balcony with a Jai Alai:



My box of “collectible glassware” shipped out, I hit my cross-town honey holes, and scooped up the last bottle of BCBS (2018) that I know of locally...what a difference a year makes, there was still a case of 2017 sitting on the ABC floor in December...

 

Superb in every way.
Cheers!!!

 

This is literally tasting perfect right now. This is the best black lager I’ve ever drank. American...or German (dare I say?).

 

Big Ugly Touch n Go Pale Ale

 

Crappy round of golf today, but I only lost $2.
Two Hearted at the 19th hole.

 

The more sour beer I drink, the more I realize that my favorites are actually the non-fruited Saison variety. So when Cellador release Laplace & Napolean with the following description...

Un bière sans fruits. Not an overly fruited wait in line and impress your friends sour, but merely a bodacious blend of barrel aged beers brewed and bottled by your truly. With an astonishing ratio of 0lbs per gallon. A level so insane that only a madman could ever conceive of such a farce.
Neither a fruit punch bowl of gimmicks designed to glitter and assault your taste buds. Rather an experience of deep contemplation and nuance. With layers so deep it would make Chris Nolan blush.

I just knew I would love it. So I bought two bottles - a 375mL for tasting, and a 750mL for drinking. Here's the result of the first: Delicious!

I tried to edit my last post but I got timed out...

I read yesterday’s last 2 pages of WBAYDN this morning and I have to give a big shout to @superspak for his brutal honesty.

Being a 5-year “regular” of this thread I’ve often wondered whether or not he was a machine or (even) an Internet bot because I didn’t think it was humanly possible to drink as many beers as he does. Far be it from me to judge, Hell, I drink like 28 out of 30 days in the month so who am I? I think it took a lot of courage for him to write the things he wrote so I applaud your honesty and I want to offer you a heartfelt cheers. Shit like that is why I post here as much as I do so thank you for bringing up what is a difficult subject matter.

 

No second job today, so Futbol ! and Schlafly's TIPA. Cheers!

 

Superspak adds a ton to this site, with his thoughtful reviews, general positivity, WBAYDN and NBS participation and more. This thread’s lucky to have him.

 

Only 28? I admire your restraint.

 

Lol, I didn’t really want to send people scrambling to what he wrote just wanted to point out that it takes a big person to be that honest.

 

Okay, haha, sometimes it is a full 30-out-of-30. I try to keep myself honest, at least, sometimes.
