    Couple beers while I studied.

    First up was Paradisi Grapefruit IPA from Orono Brewing Company. Better then Grapefruit Sculpin IMO.

    I noticed there are a few Virginia Gentlemen out there. Or am I getting confused with my bourbon. Does not matter.

    If said gentlemen have had this beer brewed by Hardywood, I would be curious about your take on it.

    I assume you are slightly happier than I am right now @cjgiant but there are two periods to go and I have some Hop on Top to change up stout night and hopefully change the luck of the Bs.

    We only have three cats now, so I suspect two fewer topplings of the tree this year. Before I had the walls finshed, I would wire the tree to screws in the studding...

    #2, this is as much an imperial brown ale as I am a power forward in the NBA, and I'm 5'9" tall and 53 years old. But it is an astonishingly good beer - the hops want to pound you into submission, but the cocoa in the malt keeps this in the general vicinity of "brown ale." I love this.

    I understand. Fought many a Xmas tree battle over the years. Sometimes I was even successful.

    New beer Wednesday, Prairie Artisan Ales Pirate Noir, 12% ABV, 60 IBU. Pours pitch black, medium viscosity, no head, no lacing. Nose is sweet rum, chocolate, and fruit. Taste follows with a bitter close. OK mouthfeel though some head would improve it. Overall excellent though I do prefer Pirate BOMB.

    Went out looking for High Westified. Failed, but came home with a solid consolation prize.

    Yeah, I would call this more a Brown IPA. Not as roasty as a black IPA but same idea. My last can had a shit ton of floaties fwiw.

    Howdy BAs, it's been a little while! The Mrs. and I welcomed baby #2 a week ago today and this is the first chance I've had to kick back and enjoy a couple brews.

    A local shop is blowing out 4-packs of this for $5.99. Seems like it's worth it, but not much more. Maybe the dry hopping is more compelling when fresh (this was bottled in June), but this is just pretty standard.

    [​IMG]

    This is delicious as always.... Cheers!
