    From last night at World of Beer in Evanston. Dragon's Milk Flight. From left to right: Raspberry, Triple Mash, Chile, Coffee

    [​IMG]

    Raspberry: I expected more raspberry. Felt a bit thin. I'd definitely try this again though.
    Triple Mash: Tasted like BCBS Prop without the barrel quality. Damn well done.
    Chile: A fantastic stout. Just the right amount of heat. Wish I was eating a burger with this one.
    Coffee: Slightly too bitter, but overall a pleasant coffee stout.

    Earthquake is up there, too! Me and @woodychandler refer to some of these Minhas offspring as "Cybermen" beers, but I forget why! Maybe after a fresh can or two I will remember...

    I do it because Minhas products, NOT beers, are unfit for human CANsumption. Repeated ingestion of Manjit & Ravinder Minhas' (hey, if they are willing to put their family name to it, then I will use their tainted names) swill CAN & will result in one being rendered inhuman. In my case, I held the Cybermen off as long as I could in my reviews, but I finally succumbed to their onslaught. Further & worse, I am now the Cyberleader! The irony of the creator of The CANQuest (tm), an ongoing homage to beer in aluminum cylinders being transformed into a being encased in an aluminum shell is not lost on me. Fortunately, I only CANvert to being The Cyberleader whan I am actually drinking a Minhas product, which explains why The Doctor & Torchwood have not caught me as yet.

    Well of course I had to follow my FBS with a FIS. Just over a year old (12/22/14) and tasting great. Cheers!

    There will never be another skater like Rodney Mullen. But that guy is pretty damn good with the tech tricks. He has been around a few years now. He is from Europe.

    Got off work early to hopefully be home for the FedEx man with my new computer. Missed him by an hour and a half. I'm never that early in the route when I take the whole day off :slight_frown:. I almost thought it was fate, too, as my old laptop wouldn't start up - but turns out it got unplugged (probably a while ago since the battery was dead).

    A light offering for now, as I kill hours before I head to the depot to pick it up. A style I have very infrequently, and I enjoyed this although there was a strange note in the smell. Wanted a little more balance and/or expected a little more bite to the hops (something about this style as it relates to Czech style lagers I read). Might have to try some others to be better versed:

    Had one recently with about the same date and though the initial sips still were a tad harsh, some time out to warm did smooth the edges a little, I agree.
