    I was drinking from a very similar Anchor bottle just the other day. Enjoying it?

    I want to eat that sandwich. Portillo's is usually the first place I visit when I get to the Chicago area. Unless it's Lou Malnati's.

    The best - a staple in my fridge! Always a pleasure to drink. Next time you're out there, check the feasibility of a pipeline to my house :grin:

    I've had 5 or 6 different versions and the best that I've had was from Carton out of NJ.

    Pinthouse Pizza Brewing (Austin, TX) Blind Jake robust porter, followed by a Rodenbach Alexander - both are wonderfully flavorful beers that went well with leftover beef roast.

    I’ma take a guess and say that @GreenBayBA has not had Ensenada style fish tacos. Ovbi the best are in Ensenada, but these ones here from Baja Fish Tacos are the best in the states. Maybe we’ll grab some when you get out here... Oh yeah, Bohemia:

    Managed to wash and wax the car today, perfect weather for it. Unfortunately, back to work tomorrow. I was looking into renewing my driver's license and they want proof of citizenship these days so I had to order a birth certificate from the city hall for $14. WTF, I've had my license for over fifty years and now I have to prove I'm a citizen?!! So that also means I can't just renew my license online, I have to go to the DMV with my documented proof that I'm a citizen. What a bunch of BS :angry:

    Another mystery beer from @Justonemore91. NEIPA, obviously. Glorious lemon curd haze on the pour. Decent head, minimal lacing. Aromas of succulent orange, grapefruit peel, blueberry, and kush. Taste follows with some pineapple candy and waning herbaceous character on the back end. Soft up front, resinous and chalky on the back end. This is nicely done, and a real pleasure to drink. I'm guessing a 7.2% abv, but knowing my luck, this is going to be in the DIPA range. I have no f*cking clue who the brewer is, but they nailed the look. Peace...

    Time for the reveal...
    A 7% IPA from Timber Ales feat. Narrow Gauge on the collab. Thankful.

    Cheers!

    I agree Tim, one day we will pour a shot on the bar at Kettlehead, could be next month. @Thankin_Hank told me to try the "Ultra" so I'm on the hunt for it.....

    My second and final Sly Fox Helles for the evening. This time I did add a lime slice and a pinch of sea salt...for hydration :wink: Delicious, and totally hitting the spot.

    Same here. The premise at the time was that you would get cramps because your body was focused on digesting food and your muscles wouldn't get enough blood circulation.
