    Which one did you prefer the Trillum or this? Seems pretty equal. Be interested to know how strong/sweet the malt profile was on this one compared to the Trillium brew

    Wasatch was kind enough to share his recipe for another one of his one pot dishes and I can confirm they taste as good as they look!

    When necessary my vet comes to my house and it is a comfort. I just had a New Belgium Trippel and really loved the spice notes and the 8.5% abv. Cheers to dog and human years.......It is a blessing.

    Hard to figure out the canning stamp on Foreign Objects beers, but this one just came in, and there's only one other review on BA - from Tuesday. So, I have reason to suspect this is quite fresh. Hopefully I'm correct.

    This beer is best described as a lively, hoppy, thin, puree-like fruit smoothie. From the nose to the palate, there is a blend of tropical and citrus juice, lightly sprinkled with sharp and bright herbs. In some order: papaya, kiwi, banana, oregano, pepper, lemon, mandarin orange, mango, pineapple.

    Fairly lively, but smooth and almost thick for the ABV. Outstanding across the board. Definitely a fresh brew.

    Ranger is beautiful. Reminds me of the long haired German Shepherd my family got when I was 10.

    For the price the Reading Premium was excellent and I could see this being in my regular rotation, especially during the summer.

    The Black Lager is delicious and I am really glad that I got a four pack, I can totally understand you wanting to drink this on multiple occasions. RIP Stoudts but at least will still have Sly Fox.

    I agree 100% with you here. Heretofore I have only had one draft pint of Reading Premium but I can certainly see a 6-pack of this beer for summer drinking.
    I have had a thought about buying a 4-pack of this beer but my homebrewed Tmavý Ležák (Czech Dark Lager) is bottle conditioning right now so I will soon be 'full up' as regards Dark (Black) Lagers.

    Cheers!

    And you have already contributed by buying/drinking your three pints so hopefully between us and others they will do something like this again :wink: The cans are really awesome, though, especially with the homage to Black Flag. And interestingly enough the BL has the 360 top on its cans and the RP did not...I am not a big fan of the 360 top so for me I can take it or leave it.

    Hi all, hope I did this right. First post in NBS, first from my phone.
    As pictured, provided that link works, is New Holland’s Brunch Stout. The first in what I can only think is a series.
    9% ABV, an imperial oatmeal stout (I am a big fan of their normal imperial: Night Tripper) with maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon added.
    Pours very dark, good head that settles slowly and leaves light lacing. Mouth feel is smooth and almost viscous as a BA brew.
    Taste, well, very good despite the fact that the cinnamon was more prominent than the other flavorings. I suppose if you like cinnamon in your hot chocolate then you will be loving this, I’m just not that person. It’s quite good, but I have beers I like better. May be interesting to see how this cellars.

    I can't tell if that beer is really beautiful or very weird looking and ugly. I think maybe it is both.

    That’s a sad story about your dog, I’m sorry. But I suppose either human or dog, that’s a good way to go if you must. Dogs are the best and it sounds like you are ready for another so good luck!

    Fantastic. And really represents the theme on NBS. We all come together on Sundays regardless of where we are or what we are doing. (Within reason for the most part). Its a day I look forward to since Ive joined BA. Really to me the best thread.
