    Good morning, BAs! I've got a delayed work schedule today to allow me to finish up the moving process. The new house will take a long time to get in order, but at least I'm done with the old!

    Starting out this morning with a little stealthy stout. No one else is awake yet, but you know...just in case.

    Cheers!

    A nice light lunch in Brussels. Pretty sure that tub of cheese isn't meant to be consumed in one sitting but I took to the challenge. Cheers!

    I have to drink to watch my wife use my power tools too. In the end, I always step in and take over because I cant stand watching. Of course I am intoxicated by then, so it is a viscous cycle

    Stopped at a place in Williams, AZ ( South Rim Wine & Beer Garage ) they had one 5 across. My kids loved paying it, but I almost felt like I needed to give them steeltoe boots & a hardhat, luckily they're quick...

    Beer review #739

    Sharpshooter Wheat Session IPA by Great Lakes Brewing Company

    Struggling to find a sixth beer at the beer store to complete my six pack, I went with this one, despite the fact I'm almost always disappointed in session IPAs. Best by 11/09 and poured 6/15.

    Appearance: Slight hop haze on this golden yellow colored beer -- seems more "lively" than most session IPAs I've had in the past. There's a tiny head that sticks around awhile, with pretty nice lacing. Good looking beer.

    Smell: Due to the added orange peel, this smells a bit like a Witbier, but still pretty distinctly like an IPA due to the hops, which are grassy and herbal primarily. There's also a tinge of malt in the aroma, which I find unusual given the style (since it seems session IPAs tend to forgo any sort of malt character), but MORE than welcome.

    Taste/feel: Wow, a session IPA that has body AND flavor... very strange, but man is it nice. I guess that extra nearly % in alcohol on this beer helps with that. A little citrus, a bit of grassiness with a slight pine flavor, some wheat, and a little malt -- this is what a session IPA ought to taste like. I'm loving the fact that this doesn't have a watery body and that it actually has a malt presence.

    One of my new favorite sub-5% beers. Considering the specific style and its ABV, this is basically a homerun by GLBC.

    3.77.5 (+4.1% rDev)
