What beer are you drinking now? #1832

This is such a treat for my buds.

 

Drinking Sierra Nevada Northern Hemi

 

Good Morning BA
I'm drinking homebrewed ESB from March while my partial mash for tropical stout does it's thing.

Love this glass, but sadly prefer my homebrew to the OG.

Enjoy what's in your glass today BA!

 

I've got a lot to do today, but there's no reason to not enjoy myself.

Cheers! Not my best photography work, but hey...it's beer. Happening now. Slow to wake this morning after that ball game last night (what a thriller, even if I give zero shits about either team, quality ball that you have to appreciate).

 

Round #2
Homebrewed saison from June. Luckily these beers have settled down while I've been busy drinking Oktoberfest beers.

Tropical Stout on boil...

Cheers!

 

Mikkeller Skør. It’s a Belgian strong dark ale that has been aged in red wine barrels.
Cheers!

 

Troegs dream weaver wheat beer. I'm supposed to be in a workshop but taking a break as it is unbelievably boring and has nothing to do with my field. NJ has my work license hostage today and I have to endure

 

Another from the back of the fridge . . .



Dark mahogany brown with gold highlights around the edges. Good tan cap and decent lacing.

Herbal, spicy, slightly coffeeish, toffeeish aroma with something like dark figs in the background. Not really catching any hops but these heavy flavors usually cover that up anyway.

Taste on entry is dark toffee quickly followed by the herbal element. Don't know exactly what that element is, perhaps a lager yeast at warmer temperature fermentation has created that but it's in there and it taste good. Mid palate I'm getting more of the plummy, ripe fig influence which is just adding layers to the first impression flavors. Spicy, clove like threads weave in by the finish and linger in the aftertaste along with a touch of coffee but no roast bitterness.

 

First wintery day of the year.
29°, 30mph winds, and snow flurries.

 

Revolution - Tropic-Hero (can).. cheers!
