    I was scanning through the menu too fast looking for new beers and missed the opportunity to buy a fishbowl of 3F Behemoth (10.5% x 24oz) for $12.5...
    That will sit you down in your seat! The barrel aged Oktoberfest from 3F was really good. All oak, no spirits. Cheers

    I’ve decided to start drinking a beer when I’m in a meeting that either I have no idea why I’m a required person or I’m dealing with way more confusion due to too many people being involved.
    This is the latter. In olden days I could phone the person I needed to get some bit of information from a person and get on with my job. Now we have project managers, business analysts, data engineers (who know less than I did 10 years ago) and the actual people needed.[​IMG]
    If this meeting goes on much longer I may need a second one.
    Cheers!

    My all time favorite beer, hands down. Thanks Dave!

    Lots of chores and a quick trip to HD; thereafter we assembled a 10’ diameter umbrella with screen, and placed it over the hot tub. Can’t wait - Cheers y’all!

    1) Half Acre Ridge Tree (4.5%): A Czech Dark Lager from Chicago with flavors of earthy dark grains, cocoa, bitter and roast.
    versus
    2) Arbeiter Nacht Rider (4.9%): A Schwarzbier from Minnesota with flavors of dark chocolate, grains, smooth cocoa. Clean. (Correctly matched the two blind)

    Czech Dark Lager versus German Schwarzbier. Repeating this battle from last year. First is Half Acre. Dar, earthy, and lightly toasty. Excellent.
    Next is Arbeiter. Slight more dark roasted and sweet chocolate notes as you'd expect for the style. These were more similar than I expected.
    Winner: Arbeiter Nacht Rider

    4.04/5 rDev 0%
    look: 3.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4

    Clear, medium gold color; dense and coarse carbonation; thin head, white but with nice density and long-lasting. Zesty, herbal nose; marjoram and thyme. Light biscuit-like malt base with a peppery and herbal hop flavor profile; mint, sage, pine resin; a small touch of tropical fruit is mixed in the batch. Medium body; crisp and sharp on the palate; velvety residual sugar feel offset with a subtle dryness.

    All these hyper-boosted hop additives do lend a unique twist to this beer. Overall, I do enjoy trying to figure out the numerous qualities exuded by regular hops and the concentrated additives.

    I like your music, but would have appreciated a bit of lyrics and a story line.
    I thought it was just Death Metal, but to be sure i aske AI and seems it is more complicated:

    • Avant-Garde/Experimental: Known for unconventional song structures, bizarre sound effects, and eclectic, eclectic compositions.
    • Progressive Metal/Shred: High-speed technical playing reminiscent of artists like Steve Vai or Joe Satriani.
    • Funk/Funk Metal: Often incorporates heavy basslines and rhythmic, "slunk" grooves.
    • Ambient/Alternative: Features melodic, emotional, and quiet atmospheric guitar, particularly on albums like Colma.
    • Electronic/Industrial: Occasional use of industrial beats and electronic elements.
