    Have a good one, advocates, especially if this is your state of mind today.

    I'm parked in a chair on the patio after walking the dogs enjoying an old beer from 2013, listening to the birds and the wind in the trees. Yeah, I'm having a real tough Monday thus far. Do the best to make the most of yours....

    Good Morning BA
    It's been too long since I've posted a poorly rated beer first thing in the morning. I went to my local liquor store to pick up one of three IPAs that I knew should be hitting shelves. They had none so I walked out with a $.99 single. The 10th worst beer in existence, as voted by BA.

    [​IMG]

    I have had so much worse. The more I explore the BA bottom 100, the more I find an underlying theme. If you can buy it anywhere, anytime in a single, it has to be crap. Availability is the least desirable beer attribute on this site. Enjoy what's in your glass today BA!

    Good morning BAs, I am on vacation and sipping on local 3 Monts which you all know. If not world class, a great beer at least... Waiting for the sun for an evening stroll on the beach.

    Cheers...!

    Normally I have fruit with breakfast but today it's with lunch . . .

    [​IMG]

    Score 3.75
    look: 3.5 | aroma: 3.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4.25

    Rich golden color with white cap.

    Aroma is full on strawberry in a pleasing way. Not so much I would call it strong but it is a pervasive scent that covers everything else.

    Taste is middle malty lagerish flavored with strawberry. Surprisingly the strawberry flavor is less intense than the strawberry scent. It's strong enough though, I really don't taste anything else.

    Light medium texture with balancing carbonation.

    I let the last third of the glass warm up to room temperature to see if I could tease out some other flavors and discovered two things . . . a) it goes flat quickly, and b) once warm and flat it tastes like Shiner Light with strawberry flavoring. It is a natural tasting strawberry, which is a plus, but that's about it so don't expect more.

    Man this is delicious!
    I'm a sucker for coffee beers and this one is one of the best.
    Water, coffee, and beer are the only things I drink.
