    Good morning BA!

    Starting a hectic work day at home with a very nice pale ale from Denmark.

    Juicy looks, tropical aroma, hoppy and bitter taste, nice mouthfeel.

    Cheers!

    Have a good Friday. Been busy with the dating apps again tonight. Only have 1 match with a real conversation so far. Going to do a call today sometime. Went over to my buddies house to get a half bag off him. I'll be set for a while.

    Stone arrogant bastard. Amazing as always. Balanced rich caramel/biscuit/toast/cocoa malts and sharp citrus/piney Chinook hops. I got a fresh can BB 10/6/20. so the citrus is super bright and dank as well!

    Heard this on WRIF last night, been about a decade since I heard the album probably.

    How much is a half bag in this context? 14g? I've never heard the term. Enjoy the brew that is one of the OG's that got me into craft.

    Yes you are correct, 14g. Also AB was one of the first craft beers I ever drank, too. I remember the first time I had it in 2010, I felt like my palate would disintegrate from the bitterness. Now its actually quite smooth. I'll be buying more cans for sure.

    So it's party time. I have a phone screen on Monday afternoon for a machine, product design, and innovation engineering position at Superior Dairy in Canton Ohio. I get to design milk manufacturing equipment, alright. ALso I miraculously got a match on Bumble, but the girls have to message first and it expires in 24 hours. I am not too optimistic about it.

    Southern Tier Pumking. Amazing as always, definitely still a top favorite for the style.

    This has been sitting around for about a year now and both the maple and coffee are still popping hard. Excellent maple + coffee breakfast beer

    I started a bit early today but things are a bit stressful right now. I'm not going to waste today by spending all day drinking but I need a few pints to get myself going going. Got more more stout to drink after I finish this guy and I'll be good

    [​IMG]

    Heady is the better beer by a long shot imo

    I wanted something big but smooth this morning. Backwoods Bastard fits the bill.

    This song may seem like an odd choice for Horns Up Friday!, but trust me: it's unbelievably heavy, starting right at about 3:45. If you're not familiar with DTP, and love heavy music, give this one a chance: trust me.

    Last one for the afternoon. This is probably the best banana stout I have had I just wish it wasn't quite as sweet as it is.

    so a half ounce, that’s a lot of herb! Do you kids even call it herb anymore? :thinking_face:

    I’ll join you all later, going home at lunch to “work” the rest of the afternoon from there...

    TGIF advocates. Getting into some mortalis hydra. Fruited sour ale with blueberry tangerine and mango. It's outstanding as I could drink these all day long. Can't taste the 7%abv at all. Wish they all were this smooth. Hope you all enjoy what's in your glass today

    Greetings advocates on this 19th anniversary of the attack on America. The wife's medical procedure went very well, the doctor expects a speedy recovery and cleared her to life 15lb sections of the Hellfire missile on Monday if she feels up to it. Awesome beer and grilled cheese.

    These AH-64 guys are the ultimate professionals, making sure not to injure innocents in the country that killed 3000+ innocents in the twin towers. Some scenes not for the faint of heart, but neither was watching 09/11/2001 unfold live on tv. My teams hardware provided the black and white flir video as well as the target acquisition ability.

    Hi, BAs. Just up after an overnight. Love these guys; make beers that really hit the spot. Overcast in NYC metro, but of course "Hope springs æternal."



    Stay Safe, Soak up some Sun, and Sláinte!

    [​IMG] Poured into a 20 oz barrel shaped stein on the draft and just released today. Pours a very hazy dark yellow with a solid finger sticky white head that leaves thin streaks of lace with excellent retention. 5

    Smell ripe melon, papaya, tangerine, passionfruit, apricot, and a little grapefruit rind. 4.5

    Taste follows cantaloupe, papaya, passionfruit, tangerine, pineapple, apricot, and again a little hint of grapefruit in really well balanced finish. 4.5

    Mouthfeel is bigger than average, not really sticky or dry, soft gentle carbonation, and at 8.5% loaded with flavor, but easy going down. 4.75

    Overall this is 2 of KH best beers brewed with the same hops and malts, I like it better than Q, but not as much as Dreamstate. Excellent sauce. 4.5 Cheers all.
