    [​IMG] This is the new kid on the block in NH. Mission statement I was told to put New Hampshire on the craft beer map. What about Stoneface, Deciduous, Kettlehead, and Spyglass they have been turning out amazing innovative beers for a few years, but whatever.

    This is two days for people to spend a little extra time with a beer they have never had and tell your fellow BAs your thoughts on what you are sipping on look, smell, taste, mouthfeel, and your overall thoughts on what is in one of your favorite glasses. No wrong answers, just share your experience with us.

    Poured into a 16 oz Snulip glass canned on 7/32/2020. Pours a beautiful hazy yellow with a solid finger sticky white head that clings to the glass leaving thick streaks of lace, yielding excellent retention. 4.75

    Smell is guava, mandarin orange, Marijuana, apple, pineapple, passionfruit, ripe melon, apricot, and some white grapefruit. Really nice and bold. 4.5

    Taste follows guava, cumquat, mandarin orange, pineapple, passionfruit, honeydew, apricot, dank marijuana, and some grapefruit bitterness that lingers sip after glorious sip. 4.5

    Mouthfeel is big, soft gentle carbonation, not dry but sticky, and at 8.5% extremely approachable as it tantalizes your entire palate. 4.75

    Overall this is a special beer, this place deserves the hype and yes they are a little brash and cocky, but if you have the goods to back it up you can talk smack. If you want to talk the talk, you need to walk the walk and with the two beers from them I have had they have certainly done that. 4.75 Cheers all.

    [​IMG] One more before I go sell beer until early afternoon. This is a really solid beer at an excellent price. The double version is a bit much and crazy sweet, but this is pleasant and pretty tasty.

    I bought this version of this beer at a store that @RaulMondesi took me to, which was one of the best craft beer stores that I have ever been to! This beer is delicious!

    Odell Drumroll in the queue this morning.

    [​IMG]

    In case you missed it yesterday, a drumroll is in order for the results from the NHL. Five of the 6 games delivered eliminations, four of them were lower seed upsets, three went to overtime. And the one game not even referenced above was the most amazing. Toronto was down 3-0 with four minutes left in regulation. In four of the most furious minutes of hockey, the leafs tied it up and then won in overtime. I didn't have a dog in that fight, but it was still amazing to watch.

    Like March Madness on ice

    Yeah, that TOR-CBJ 3rd period was absolutely nuts for the last 3-4 minutes. It's been years since I've seen a team just collapse like CBJ did in those moments. But it was thrilling to watch. Cheers to more hockey!

    Tortorella is notorious for sarcastic and brief post game pressers, this one from yesterday was no exception. Bill Belichick and Nick Saban make for an easy interview compared to this guy!

    Thanks. Her name is Luna and she's a year old Cockapoo. An amazing pup in every way since we brought her home at 8 weeks.

    An excellent West Coast IPA that really brings those sticky, resinous, piney notes to the table, backed up by some quite fruity accents and a nice, solid malt backbone, as well as a great, distinct bitterness in the finish.
