    Howdy all, and thank God it's Friday!

    I have been looking forward to the beer in my glass all day. It's Miller High Life, a beer I acquired in my proxy/trade from @TurkeysDrinkBeer.

    Even living in Australia I'm aware of the iconic nature of this beer and its tagline. I'm also aware that it no longer lives up to what a craft beer drinker wants in a beer, but then nor is it meant to.

    There's an audience for this beer, and it's not a craft beer drinker, but it is a craft beer collector who wants to experience the full gamut of the world's beers, and I'm very much in that camp. It's near impossible to get it through normal channels over here and I'm glad I went to the effort to get this one. I've loved receiving, pouring and drinking this beer, even though as far as beer goes, it's pretty ordinary.

    That said, it'll get marked up a little in the overall mark in my rating because ultimately it's my overall experience I'm rating here, and in those terms it didn't disappoint at all. And let's face it, it does look gorgeous in the glass.

    Cheers!

    Good morning BAs! Mid morning dog walk with Billy…stopped in at the pub for a pint - Camden Pale by Camden Town Brewery:

    Light lemon bitterness; light (4%) body. Tasty and poundable. Cheers from Crawley, UK!

    Good morning all!

    Drinking what was a very pleasant surprise for me several months ago to the point I thought it was worthy to send one to @beergoot during our trade last winter/spring.

    Just a top notch juicy French NEIPA. Comes in a 500ml can at 6%, using Citra, Simcoe, Soraci Ace and Amarillo Hops.

    Cheers!

    Forgot to post this one last night from @Whyteboar. Great WCDIPA that's not from the west coast of the US, but from Michigan.

    Like I mentioned last night, @oach did an East Coast trip and shared some goodies with me. This is the one I’m most excited about, as I’ve never had it before. After two sips, I have to say I love it.

    Civil Society continues to expand from just the hazy stuff and are doing a fine job at it. This is a cream ale with Hallertauer Mittlefruh and cascade served from a Lukr and it is tasting great. Happy Friday beer advocates

    Lunch beer! Every year I have to grab a sixer of Highland Brewing Clawhammer Oktoberfest. One of the best around. Terrific malty, spicy aroma and flavor. Long work week from hell is almost over. Cheers!

    Those 7 ouncers are dangerous, you may as well put the rest of the pack into
    an ice bucket and have at on the porch.
