What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #2981

Thanks for kicking things off @Urk1127 from Philly, where it is Always Sunny, even during snow storms!

I've been taking my sweet time with my first beer for the Beer Advocate Christmas Beer Online tasting event. If you have Christmas beers planned for the weekend in preparation for Christmas next week, please consider visiting the thread and posting your take.

This beer was from my cellar, likely 3-5 years old. Still going strong, the primary difference from fresh is the coffee drop off and the fact it is slightly sweeter as a result.

Prairie Artisan Christmas Bomb



Hope you have a pleasant beer and music weekend, and a few Christmas beers to sample over the next week.

"Are you going to drop the bomb or not?"

 

Have a good Friday. I did another 8+ hours and my buddy threw me a nice baggie for a pack of smokes from work. He got off at 11pm and I threw it in my car because it reeked. Did a lot of truck and beer order stocking because it was a mess in the cooler and on the sales floor. As usual. I also learned we sell a fuck ton of Bud Ice 3 packs and Twisted Tea 24 ounce. Mostly general macro otherwise, but there are still people coming in for some GLBC Xmas ale or whatever occasionally. Even had someone get the Thirsty Dog one when I was on drive thru last week.

I am going to Gasoline Alley in Bath with my Uncle for lunch today. Wonder what the tap list will look like, but the food looks banging.

Seems like I got a sinus infection now as the night went on. Was sneezing and blowing my nose a lot. Figures that 3 weeks after I start a new job requiring a mask on all day in the cold fridge might have caused me to catch something. Also if you don't wear a mask, you can go fuck yourself. At least 33% of the customers in the store do it. It's just saying a big fuck you to us from our perspective. Science means everything to me.

Awesome NEIPA.


Cheers

I was listening to WONE all night. This got stuck in my head when I got home from work. Was played at 1:36 AM, had to find it

TGIF advocates. It might be the coldest day in ny so far this year. Gots to drink to stay warm. Other Half & J Wakefield Snowbirds 5 Banana Cream Pie Imperial Stout With Wild Thai Banana, Nilla Wafers And Tahitian Vanilla. I love it cheers

 

Good morning BAs! I took yesterday off, and I slept in this chilly morning...42°, breezy with a chill of 36°... dogs/chores done, it’s coffee time - Péché Mortel:



Bottled 10/14/16. Poured at 56°. At 4+ years the coffee is still strong. A fantastic coffee stout. My stash is starting to run low...

The cold front moves through today, highs in the mid 50s. Never fear, it will be back in the 70s tomorrow and sunny ...good thing too; Jr. Z moves into his first no-roommates apt. tomorrow, and I’m driving the u-haul. Time flys...Cheers y’all!

 

Four Peaks Golden Lager - the name fits

Great NFL game last night - overtime, too.

 

The Greench Stole X-Mas. Double IPA DDH from Uiltje.
Cheers!

 

That is some wicked can art ... I miss drinking Uiltje ... Cheers!

 

Cheers!

 

Not to get too political, but I got a lot of respect for what you posted! Cheers!

 

Loving revolution’s red skull, up there with nugget nectar in my book. Fantastic!

 

That was an awesome description of the beer! Next time I am in NJ, I will be seeking it out! Cheers!

 

Twitchy from R Shea. Cheers!

 

Hard not to be productive in this kind of weather here...this week we cut back the plumeria (the trees that produce the fragrant flowers used to make leis in Hawaii) and I’ve lined up the cuttings curbside for our neighbors to take...easily transplanted and hardy!

Trying this year’s version - Xōcōveza:



Canned 9/24/20. Poured at 59°. The taste is again this year subdued cinnamon, bittersweet dark chocolate and spicy verde sauce; some vanilla on backend. Well balanced, keeping the cinnamon under control. A little heat/peppers bite on tip of tongue. I like! Back at it BAs, and Cheers!

 

Cheers!
