What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #4416

Hello again. One of our cats has taken a fancy to waking us up at about 3-3:30 am and so this can of Rhinegeist Saber Tooth Tiger Imp IPA should knock me back out for a few more winks. It's a good one. Cheers BAs!

 

Good morning,
yesterday before going home from work, a quick stop at the Eternal City Brewing brewery, which I find on the ring road of Rome after a short change of direction.

Eternal City Brewing (Roma, ITA) - MORA - Oatmeal Stout (6%)

At the pump.
Small toasted aromas and lighter chocolate.
Beige foam, just the right amount, with a soft and creamy consistency.
Light and soft body thanks to the use mainly of oats.
In the mouth I find notes of toasted hazelnut that go more towards the biscuit than the coffee. Notes of dark chocolate that fades into licorice, immediately dampened by a cereal softness that pervades the entire beer.
The body has a hint of light silkiness, but it is rather watery.
Yes, easy to drink, but also enough to be far from unforgettable.
I would say, scholastic.



Sláinte .
Cheers .

 

Happy Friday BA's! Thanks @ChicagoJ for opening the bar.
@micada From yesterday thread, Guinness Foreign Extra Stout is my favorite too.

Starting early today again with a Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra.



Cheers!

 

I usually don't imbibe this early in the morning, but after I fancified my Eggo waffle with a chicken wing and banana, I thought, what the hell, Founders Breakfast Stout would pair quite well. Leggo my Eggo!

 

We got some much needed rain the last two days. 7 years after opening this stuff is still excellent. Cheers all.

 

Good day BAs! Thanks @ChicagoJ for opening the virtual bar today - I wanted a drink! We're back from the wilds of TX after a short flight and a crappy food choice at Austin airport - laundry's done and so is the first phase of turkey day shopping - Black Friday's only a week away so this season's BCBS will be lined up to join the next year's shelf turds.

Today's New Breakfast Beer will never be a shelf turd:



Final impression and summation: 4.25 Looks like virtually every other American Imperial Stout on the market. However, the lack of in-your-face bourbon in both aroma and flavor is a pleasant change from most BBAs. I like this. If that’s what Heaven Hill brings to the barrel, I’ll have to try bourbon again. Thanks Justin!

Rating 4.15, rDev -4.8%

 

I made it through this 12 pack and that was a chore.

 

After that Breakfast Stout I needed a pick me up.

One of the best cameos ever.

 

My favorite Stout, for sure! On another note, a maple syrup soaked chicken wing gives a Buffalo wing a good run for its money. Cheers!

 

G'day all!

I got up a little earlier today because I have another shipment of beer from Beer Drop.

First up, a very nice fresh hop Pilsner from Jack's Abby. It hits all the right notes, in general. Some notes from the can:

Decoction mash using Maine floor malt. Coolpool hopping w/MA grown Triumph & NY grown Cascade.

Prost!

 

Nice! I bet the Founders was matching real well with your breakfast.

Sticking with IPA, Bissell Brothers The Substance.



Cheers!

 

I loves me a good Scottish Ale. This one is way too sweet to my palate. Darn it.

Prost!

 

Good morning BAs! Stayed up late, slept in. Dogs have been walked and fed, kitchen cleaned…it’s coffee time - KBS:



Bottled 9/10/24. Poured at 52°. Such a wonderful breakfast beer. Just the right amount of bourbon and chocolate always.

Hanging out on the back patio with the dogs. Breezy 64° with clear skies and nonstop sunshine. Two of my trivia crew are getting married today, and thereafter hosting a huge beer/wine party tonight. More fun to come - Cheers and have a fantastic Friday y’all!

 

This will have to do.

 

At PHX Sky Harbor after a visit with family. Mom is doing well at 91, still has a Miller Lite at her homes HH! Breakfast Sam Adam's Seasonal for me and a Firestone Walker 805 for Da Boss.
Hopefully will hit Sierra Nevada for Celly Drippins this afternoon.
Cheers!
