    Thank you Shanex for throwing out another Friday for a world drowning in Mondays and Thursdays!
    I'm tasting the Cruz America IPA from Humble Sea in Santa Cruz.

    Aromatic with lime peel and green hay. Lovely sudsy and foamy mouthfeel. Light body, very tangy. Flavors of green melon and green apricot with a grapefruit soda finish. On the acidic side. Long bitter aftertaste, but fragrant as your taste buds numb. Overall this is a light and zippy hoppy brew, and more drinkable than the foggier brews from Humble Sea. Double dry-hopped with Simcoe, Superdelic, and Columbus.

    Thank you @Shanex for the open. I'm sure your son will love meeting more neighbors and friend almost as much as they will love meeting him. And love your glass and review of Humble Sea @mactrail ! I've enjoyed a couple of their beers at West Coast Fests, and hope to make it to their brewery.

    My final 2026 Cellaruary take, link right here. Bottom line beyond an initial pepper aroma cold, this held up very well compared to my February 27, 2025 Cellaruary taste of the same beer and vintage. Revolution Beers like most should be enjoyed fresh, but very grateful they also hold up well over time.

    Also holding up well over time; Squeeze.

    Good day BAs! Thanks @Shanex for opening the Bar! Currently sunny and supposed to get up into the high thirties today - almost time to start my birdseye and gong bao peppers! Tonight Mrs Lizard and I will be meeting our son and daughter-in-law for dinner at an excellent Thai restaurant.

    No New Breakfast Beer today, but I picked up one I haven't had in years - last time it came in a bomber I purchased at Vintage Estates in Ohio - I haven't been there in a decade.

    The smoke is strong in this one, and not particularly tasty - dunno what kind of wood they used. Vanilla is problematic. If I were to re-evaluate my old review, I'd probably lower the original 3.99 rating.

    Happy Friday BA's! A bunch of chores completed so now a Magnanimous Never Ending Game DDH DIPA while cleaning a few tools. Partly cloudy and headed to 80 before the rain gets here late this afternoon.

    This one without alcohol was better.

    Rapa Nui has been on my radar for some time (I hope you are enjoying yourself there) but I'm making a mental note to bring my own beer if I ever visit it.
