    Good morning BAs,

    We are getting tons of Bud ads on radio, telling us how « The King of Beer » is reaching these parts and I don’t get it. I’ve seen it for years in Carrefour supermarket (French Walmart of sort maybe better, or Safeway for the West coast). Anyhow I bought it, ABinBev gets tons on crap here. For the price tag it’s refreshing enough albeit poor taste wise...

    Session IPA from Amundsen
    good hoppy aroma
    but the tast is a little poor, you can kind of tast the salt

    Good day BAs! Starting off without rain, at least for an hour or two. Today's New Breakfast Beer:



    Decent inexpensive basic IPA.

    Very appropriate beer for a rare Monday off. Vacation accrual maximum is 400 hours, I'm at 397 so I'd only get 3 of the monthly 13 hours if I don't lower it, no problem boss. Thanks again @scream!

    I didn’t know the "freshest by" date of 9/20/16 was printed in black on a brown bottle above the label. Couldn't read it until the beer was poured anyway. I don't feel like a bottle conditioned beer should have fallen off this much, but there's not much taste to this one at all, even when you ignore the slight oxidation. I would try it again fresh (now that I know how and where to check).

    Cheers all!

    [​IMG] I never had a good moment for New Beer Sunday yesterday and a chance to review this tasty brew.

    Poured into a 13 oz Teku glass canned on 5/30/19. Pours a slightly cloudy orange with a half finger sticky white head that leaves plenty of thin waves of lace as it slowly settles with nice retention. 4.25

    Smell is melon, pineapple, tangerine, and a little grapefruit rind. 4

    Taste follows very balanced nothing over the top, pineapple, cantaloupe, mandarin orange, and just a kiss of grapefruit. 4.25

    Mouthfeel is bigger than most at only 6.1%, plenty of life not crazy soft but pleasant, a tad dry and slightly sticky, and incredible drinkability. 4.25

    Overall this is a brewery I really enjoy and a series of rotating hops I can’t wait to pick up every release. Well done. 4.25

    Working my way, gradually, through the 4pack of these WW coffee breakfast stouts. One and done until later. Man that is sweet. But the coffee offsets it. :astonished:
