    Starting early with an easy new to me "Session Stout".

    Goose Island Little Risk

    [​IMG]

    Will post my write up in New Beer Weekend when someone opens things up this morning, but long story short, it looks good, smells complex and pleasant, flavor light, very chalky malt. There is little risk of my buying a second.

    Hoping my second planned beer works out better.

    [​IMG] Poured into a 13 oz Teku glass canned on 3/11/21. Pours a very hazy orange yellow with a finger sticky white head that leaves thin streaks of lace with excellent retention. 4.25

    Aroma is peach, mango, ripe melon, pineapple, lemon, apricot, and grapefruit rind. 4.25

    Taste follows lemon, peach, honeydew, mango, pineapple, apricot, and a little hint of grapefruit. 4.25

    Mouthfeel is a solid medium, fairly soft gentle carbonation, not really dry or sticky, and at 6% ABV it drinks more like 7% but goes down really easy. 4.25

    Overall this is another really tasty offering from one of NH best breweries. 4.25 Cheers all.

    Good day BAs! Nondescript morning - no rain, no fog, no sun - just overcast and a mediocre temperature. At least I have a good New Breakfast Beer:

    [​IMG]

    Decent modification of the excellent base beer White Rajah, although I must admit I like the base beer slightly better - rating 4.1, rDev -2.8%.

    Starting it easy too here with an oatmeal Pale ale very local to me. Only 5%, drink easily and flavorful nonetheless. Cheers all!

    As soon as I saw you sampling two beers in 20 minutes, I figured as much. Training for Midsommar, uh? :wink:

    I can see this being a staple at the Link or Fargo tbh. Fresh mango. Not great base beer. But that’s not what this is. It’s about the mango. It’s clean ripe fresh mango. A great fruit beer. Not great base beer but worth trying. Balanced. Not sweet. The base beer is a tad rough but dry so that adds to the mango.
    I feel like they’ll release other fruit flavors with this.

    I had terrible food poisoning yesterday after breakfast. Gas station breakfast burritos man. Felt nauseous all day. Much better now so beer time.

    philly band. I like it heavy

    Thoughts will be over on New Beer Weekend once I've finished my review. If you are having a beer for the very first time - a new to you beer - and would like to tell us a bit about how it smells, tastes, and feels (do you like it? :stuck_out_tongue: ), why not pull up a stool at the virtual bar and join us? :grinning:

    Cheers!

    Good morning BAs! I’ve been sipping on a wonderful beer, courtesy of @beergoot all morning long, a collab between Crooked Stave/Evil Twin - “Maple Bourbon Stout”:

    [​IMG]

    One of only 936 bottles. Aged 4 years, 8 months in Heaven Hills barrels that had Aged BLiS Maple Syrup.The best beer I’ve had in 2021! Notes, hopefully, to follow on NBW. Thanks Dave for this special beer!
