    Good morning, BAs!

    I haven't been one for breakfast beers as of late, but I'll make an exception today as a post-5k recovery. Two in a row that I've finished sub-24 minutes. The runners out there are scoffing, but ... I'm a terrible runner, and in my line of work, I'm considered old as dirt. So I earned this one. :grinning:

    And what else but FBS, of course?

    Cheers, and enjoy your Friday!

    This is tasting amazing. Despite everything going on in life, it is Friday, and my work week is now over so a delicious ipa is in order.

    something substantial on this chilly morning . . .

    [​IMG]


    [​IMG]


    Deep golden color with white cap and lacing.

    Aroma of pine, citrus zest and ripe tropical fruit.

    Taste is hop forward with a zingy fresh, edgy hop sharpness that while being aggressive is also quite flavorful. I don't get as much tropical fruit in the taste as I do in the scent but it's there in an underlying capacity. Relatively simple flavors but the whole comes across as complex and finishes dry. A beer that makes you sit back and think then quickly take another swallow.

    Full texture with balancing carbonation.

    Brewer's web site says this is their hoppiest beer yet and I won't argue. It's not just bitterness, this one is complex and balanced and presents it's aggressive hop forwardness with almost an air of sophistication.

    Around here we have to take advantage of what's available. In fact only one store got an allotment of 2018 Hoptimum and being on the email list I was able to get there in time to buy the last six pack. This is an exceptional beer. I actually bought two 12 packs of the Southern Hemisphere because I wouldn't see them again.

    Mid morning pick me up . . .

    [​IMG]


    Light golden color with white cap and lacing.

    Aroma of rich malt and slightly herbal spicy hops.

    Taste is hop forward with a firm, herbal approach that's both bracing and refreshing. A fairly complex beer brewed from just a few ingredients which goes to show what can be done by those with honed brewing skill sets.

    Medium texture with balancing carbonation.

    A good beer in the Pils style that executes the style well.

    Have a great Friday y’all!

    Would you take Hoptimum over Hop Bullet? Both are in my shop.
