    Got a Danish movie lined up, but Wednesday is always later because there’s a French language grocery show at 7:30 I watch with my wife. Rating products, comparing products, evaluating ingredients, that sort of thing. Very interesting and informative for people who take clean eating as seriously as the Insomniacs.

    Drinking a Stille Nacht, which I have been on a bit of a fit with recently. 12% but really drinks like half that. Cheers. [​IMG]

    Holy sh*t, @BIGPOPPAS, I don't even know what to say. I love you. I also love this beer. I'm going to walk the dog after it. Peace.

    Alewerks Weekend Lager. Brewed in Williamsburg, Virginia. Long long time ago but I remember when the brewery was just a mom and pop outfit.

    DDH galaxy hophands from tired hands poured into a tulip. Wow this is the third time I'm having this first 2 I was using just a regular pint glass and wasn't getting as much aroma as I am now using a tulip. Crazy what glassware can do

    Fair State Double Universe DNEIPA, 8.6% ABV. This and a twin have been kicking around in my fridge for months, but still great. I really like the late day low-sun-angle lighting.

    Nebraska Brewing Company Production Brewery & Tap Room -- Melange A Trois - Reserve Series Aged In French Oak Chardonnay Barrels (Belgian golden strong ale)

    [​IMG]

    4.44/5 rDev +6.7%
    look: 4.5 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5

    Soft yellow body, semi-hazy; tons of carbonation rising slowly; thick and billowy head, white, dense, and creamy. Huge wheat and cracker aroma; dry hardwood, oak; mild esters as the beer warms up; a bit of herbal / spicy / earthy scent going on, too. Rich and malty taste; biscuit; a nice layer of chardonnay barrel aging in the background; phenol and earthy spiciness; low hop bitterness. Heavy body; very soft and velvety; spongy; semi-dry.

    Although there is no bottling / production data on the bottle, whatever the beer's creation time-frame, it all boils down to being one incredible drinking experience. For my palate, it's the malt and yeast that are the highlights. The chardonnay barrel aging is noticeable but really more in the background, at least taste-wise. The body is incredibly smooth and rich. Without a doubt, an extremely satisfying Belgian golden strong ale.

    ...and a little musical ménage à trois...
