What beer are you drinking now? #2871

Woke up early on the first crisp morning since spring. Feels good to wear a hoodie again.




In the dark I picked some peppers, tomatoes and a Serrano for an omelet to go with @GreenBayBA Memorial Brats and a 2017 Founders Breakfast Stout.



The stout has held up nicely with the chocolate presence prominent but not sweet. The coffee has faded a bit into the background but the oat mouthfeel is still there. I think Jim would approve of a breakfast stout.

 

Cheers BA!

 

Poured into a 16 oz Nordic pint glass canned on 7/27/2020. Pours a very hazy orange with a finger plus sticky off white head that leaves a big thick ring of lace as it slowly settles into a thin layer of bubbles with incredible retention. 5

Smell is ripe melon, guava, passion fruit, peach, and apricot. 4.5

Taste follows cantaloupe, guava, passion fruit, peach, and apricot low on bitterness, huge on flavor. 4.5

Mouthfeel is massive, a tad sticky but not dry, soft gentle carbonation but almost creamy, and at 10.5% it is packed with flavor but goes down way to easy. 5

Overall this is a TDH NETIPA that is truly a special beer. Very balanced and amazingly approachable. Well done. 4.5 Cheers all and enjoy your Sunday.

 

A little bit of Mexican Coffee Cake (courtesy of @DoctorZombies) before trying to catch a bit more sleep. Hopefully.


Happy Sunday, everybody.

 

Starting with one that I haven’t had in a long time. White Rajah from Brew Kettle. This goes down way to easy. Have a great Sunday everyone!

 

Good day BAS! Mrs Lizard and I are dog sitting overnight for our son who had to make a late-night trip to "da burg" with his female companion to pick up a dog. Otherwise, another uninteresting day begins.
Today's New Breakfast Beer is one of dubious origin, found in the back of my beer reefer:



Oily and a good unknown for organic chemistry students to try to identify all the organic acids present.

 

This will give me plenty of Vitamin C. Apricot, Tangerine, and Blood Orange NEDIPA.

 

Was waken up early by some strong thunderstorms pushing through, but brought some much needed rain.

Coconut PM Dawn and watching some TDF. My kind of lazy Sunday morning.

 

Cross post with the New Beer Sunday/Weekend Thread. I kissed a mango, and I think I liked it.

Bell's Mango Oberon



Long story short, mango aroma overpowering, but the taste is balanced and enjoiyable. This is a good beer, one I will try again beyond my remaining three bottles.

It is easy like Sunday morning, or these tunes by Van Morrison.

 

Preaching we are all in this together on this Sunday morning!

 

Good morning BAs! Lots of thunderstorms rolled through last night, gonna be another hot and steamy day. Something new - “Dessert Cart” by Mountains Walking Brewery, Bozeman MT, an imperial pastry stout with chocolate and peanut butter:



Smells like peanut brittle, tastes like chocolate/peanut butter fudge. Working on NBW notes. Shout out to @JayWhitson for this tasty Montana breakfast beer. Have a super Sunday advocates!

 

Happy Sunday BA’s
The weather is glorious in these parts today

Perfect weather for baby sItting the smoker and these beef ribs. Applausi Saluto

 

Good morning Doc. I was telling my wife about your infamous relative this morning and she said they used to jump rope to the rhyme when she was a kid. Imagine if they made up a rhythm now a days about a murder that kids could recite?
My wife is a huge true crime person and she played this right after I told her about you. She also said she was acquitted. Cheers

 

Cheers!

 

Happy Sunday, BAs! Catching up on last night’s hockey games before getting some sun on the last day of summer (by my reckoning). Teachers report back tomorrow, but at least we’re teaching from home for the foreseeable future. I’d be hella nervous if we were going back in person, with face shields, etc.

First canning run from my 2020 favorites. Now if they would only start canning their sours

 

Cheers!

 

-best wishes on your return to school. I have one 80 minute in person session and two synchronous 80 minute remote sessions per week with each of my classes. The in-person sessions are 10 to 12 students per room and masks are required.
-hopefully we all stay safe
