    Goat Patch Brewing -- Peaches and Cream Ale

    Murky peach colored body; thin, wispy head, spotty and patchy flecks of foam cling to the glass. Excellent peach aroma. Prominent peach flavor, fairly fresh; heavy sweetness; wheat. Heavy body; cloying sweetness throughout.

    The brewery nailed the peach presence, but any sense of a cream ale is buried with too much sweetness.
    --------

    ...a rare drain pour, and probably my first from the Goat Patch...

    Excellent picture! I grew up a Sox fan because of family, but back in the time where you can like both. Really liked their baby powder blue uniforms in the 1970s.

    Thanks for giving us your gift of music, be it on your birthday or the other 364/5 days.

    Cheers!

    May all your days be like this one (or two, I believe the game went past midnight).

    35th Anny Expedition. Absolutely tremendous. Originally intended to have 1 or 2 now and hide the rest of the 4 pack in the cellar, but I doubt I'll be able to show any restraint. I'll have to grab another 4 pack or 2. Cheers!

    Brewing Projekt Weird Pop Cream Ale with Blood Orange and JalapeƱo, 5.1% ABV. Pours hazy orange with no head, which of course leaves no lacing. Nose is orange and peppers. Taste follows with the orange prevailing, moderately sweet, moderate pepper heat, no bitterness. Well balanced sweetness and burn. Decent smooth mouthfeel, if a bit under-carbonated. Overall outstanding. Can't really tell it's a cream ale under the covers.

    4.21/5 rDev +8.8%
    look: 4 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25

    Not real hot but will still use it as an excuse to drown the flames with another brew, as if an excuse is necessary.

    And its Sketches of Spain time.

    Sipping on and Old Stock, love this beer. Thought I had a few older bottles lying around, but this is a 2020. Still incredible.

    This is good, but a bit strong at 6.7%. Some Bockish notes.

    I think most people grow up a fan of whatever sports team because of family. I grew up in Champaign, and our block was split right down the middle Cubs/Cards fan. There was a lot of friendly pranks back and forth. I mean, I know the Cubs have sucked except for recently (I grew up with that ha), but even so. I remember a time the Cubs swept the Cards in a series, and my Dad had a toy rubber chicken, so we went out late at night to hang it on my neighbors tree. With a sign that said "Dead Birds". Well, while we were both in the tree, my neighbor came out in his underwear to take the garbage out. It was hilarious, as my Dad and I were trying to stay as still as possible, he finally looked up and we about fell out of the tree laughing :slight_smile:

    Oh and just another fun thing, the first Farm Aid happened on my birthday in my home town. I don't remember it cause I was only 3, but my parents and family always talk about it. Cause it was a huge deal, our house was only 4 blocks from the stadium, it was played at U of I, and having Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison all basically in our neighborhood at the same time, was something they never forgot. :slight_smile:
