Cheers!

 

Reminds me of Flogging Molly, &/or Van Morrison, before the vocals come in. Not sure what exactly, or why, but w/ my eyes closed, that's the visual that pops up (internally).

& on it goes ....

 

Poured into a 16 oz Snulip canned on 2/1/2021. Very excited because Flume2 is in the running for favorite beer out of Maine. Pours a very hazy orange yellow with a 2 finger sticky white head that leaves nice thin streaks of lace as it slowly settles. 4.5

Aroma guava, peach, ripe melon, mandarin, mango, and apricot. 4.25

Taste follows guava, cantaloupe, peach, mandarin, mango, and apricot fairly sweet with little bitterness. 4.5

Mouthfeel is bigger than average, a tad sticky but not dry, soft gentle fairly creamy carbonation, and at 9.5% ABV it goes down very easy, but loaded with flavor. 4.5

Overall another excellent IPA from this great brewery. I will be honest, I was hoping for even better but I am digging this and will give the next can a little extra time in the can. 4.5

 

Traeger is kinda like the sous-vide of smoking...my sous-vide is a work from home crutch for scientifically perfect temp and texture...just set it and forget it (within reason)

 

Every six to eighteen months I savor an
Old Rasputin
Russian Imperial Stout, North Coast Brewing.
Savor while watching the Hammer classic starring
Sir Christopher Lee as Rasputin: the Mad Monk (1966).

 

Mike, have another Virginia beer. Ok.

 

FanDuel ap crashed, so the Mrs. was not able to lose her $5. . She was pulling for KC. The TB domination of both GB and KC (and how they both rolled over IMO) reminded me of when Tiger Woods won most any week he laced up the spikes or when Jimmy Johnson won 6 nascar cup titles in succession.

 

At one point it reminded me of a song by One Dimension but they were kids and not old guys like the clue @TheIPAHunter left.

 

Double cloud > heady topper > focal banger

 

Thanks, we used to watch that show all the time. I think it was Flay’s first one on the old food network. There are a bunch of them on you tube, it used to be a 1/2 hour show. Cheers

 

This one from O'Fallon, however, is excellent!

 

After a Teams meeting that went nearly 10 hours, this is hitting the spot. Nice, juicy, slightly dank tropical hop bomb. Very well done, IMHO.

 

Kind of, there is a good place for Sous Vide though. I mean if youre using it for "braising" a tough cut it makes sense. But if youre cooking your steak to temp and then searing it ....meh
Especially when you can do a real reverse sear without it

 

Leftovers with the Parrish/Untitled Arts Gulf Coast DIPA....

 

Perusing through the New Trail Expedition Pack with Confluence. Decent old school IPA in the veign of Furious or Two Hearted. They're already hinting at a second pack on their FB page, and also White Out DIPA will be on shelves soon!
