    Happy birthday!!! What are talking about. You're going to live to be 105. Trappist beers extend life expectancy.

    ...a lazy afternoon in the house after all the snow shoveling from earlier in the day...

    Hair of The Dog Brewery -- Otto From The Wood
    American strong ale
    ABV: 13%; pouring temperature: 52 °F; bottling info: 2013
    Source: online purchase from the brewery

    4.22/5 rDev -0.2%
    look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25

    Orange and brown body, lightly cloudy; decent initial carbonation that fizzed away to nothing in short order. Heavy wood nose with earthy, fruity sweetness; blackberry with a minuscule touch of orange and cherry. leather and tobacco notes. Big, boozy and sweet taste; primarily dense flavors of dried and candied fruits; cherries and orange; figs and anise. Heavy, syrupy body; dense residual sugars; comforting alcohol warmth permeates the beer; lightly sticky.

    Compared to the 2016 version, this one gets dinged a bit in the looks and smell departments, but it otherwise rises to the fine taste and mouthfeel of the newer version. Another example of nicely aged / cellared Hair of The Dog beer.

    ...the below image wasn't anywhere near all the shoveling I did, but gives an idea of the amount of snow we got over the past 24+ hours...definitely needed a path to the 'Fortress of Solitude'...:grin:

    A huge storm is about to pass through me any minute.

    I have some Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and Jackson Browne to help me through this Deluge :slight_smile:

    Silly me. Thought I missed my turn to get to the VB and got lost. Turns out somebody moved my cheese. Kind of unnerving for dudes like me who are creatures of habit.:joy:

    Happy Friday BAs!
    This has become one of my favorite beers from Halfway Crooks. Linus Pilsner. Refreshing and tasty.

    Nice thing about being retired is you can sit on your deck, drinking a Short's Local's Light Lager, while watching other people work. Cheers!

    The Bar was a little out of the way. Took me a little bit to find it. I was starting to sweat. All's well now. :sweat_smile:

    When an Italian conglomerate bought out the company I used to work at, they gave every employee a book called, "Who Moved My Cheese". I could've used that book again for this move to The Bar. :crazy_face:
