    SN 2022 Bigfoot. Definitely a lot hoppier than the 2021 I had Saturday. Will get around to a side-by-side at some point. Cheers!

    I appreciate the input, I don't really know much about Belgian/French styles, I think it's the yeast.

    They're fairly common around here, too, but they're not really what I look for either. But it was a gift six, and it sure has been good...

    Oh yeah, I get that, my Aunt gave me a sixer of Goose Island IPA a few years ago as a gift. At one point I really liked that one, but it eventually fell out of my rotations...having nothing to do with the buyout, just my own opinion kind of waned over the years. That sixer was damn good though.

    Freigeist (brewed and canned by Urban Chestnut Brewing Co.) -- Ottekolong
    Kölsch
    5.0% ABV; pouring temperature: 46 °F; canning data: no date info but "Brewed and canned by Urban Chestnut Brewing Co."

    [​IMG]

    Light yellow body, clear and sparkling; dense and lively carbonation; thick, white head, dense and creamy. Fine, light malt nose; notes of cracker with a mild herbal quality. Mild grain base taste, cracker and biscuit; mild to moderate hop bitterness with a touch of herbal spiciness. Medium body; crisp; light combination of sweetness and dryness on the palate.

    Contract brewed (I assume) and nicely done. There is a bit of ale roughness in the mouthfeel while the taste is nicely balanced with light malt and a slightly bold hop bitterness and taste. The looks are really nice. A great little beer...

    I gave it a (4) overall. Not my favorite from them but definitely not terrible, I'd buy it again, though. I"m waiting to see how our resident Hop Head rates it. @TheIPAHunter

    Thanks Mike!!! Yeah, MC2 is pretty tasty, albeit a bit on the pricey side. But any beer with Einstein on the label can't be bad :grin:

    The 3 covid vax shots did nothing to me. Light injection site tenderness. Flu shot made my shoulder pretty sore but it was my 2nd Shingrex shot that absolutely kicked my feckin' arse right into bed for like 48 hrs. Holy guano Batman! With the exception of nausea, I had every side effect from that one. Done with that for life! Cheers! Be safe out there y'alls.

    The first shingles shot hurt like a bastid the next day, but they warned me it would hurt. The second one wasn't nearly as painful - but other than that, I had no other side effects. The only sides I had from the 3 Covid (Moderna) vax was slight achiness and extreme lethargy the next day. Cheers!
