    Greetings advocates!

    This is a beer I once tried and drank in a pretty low budget hotel somewhere in Western France. Low budget means that having a tiny fridge in the room was too much to ask. So it’s much better cold than lukewarm. Good one!

    Have a good Saturday. Been up all night as I woke at 730pm. Played yahtzee with my gf online last night and we are going to a brewery this evening. Going to play some Doom soon on steam. Still waiting on gigabit internet on Monday, but I've been strategically using my phone as a mediation point. I feel crippled :laughing:

    Might as well start off NBW. Founders Oktoberfest. This was awesome. Lasting fluffy head/thick foamy lacing. Aromas and flavors of big honey, white bread dough, toasted biscuit, and light caramel/nutty malts; with light herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery hops. Mild DMS fruitiness, but not overwhelming. Mild herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation and body; creamy/bready malts, and light sticky hops in the mouthfeel. Lightly increasing lingering bitter dryness, no cloying sweetness. Very smooth/soft, minimal warming 6%. Very clean on lager flavors, not overly fruity/yeasty Awesome clean/rich munich/pils malts with balancing noble hops. Light residual sweetness with lingering dryness. Spot on style. Glad I got the 6 pack, super baked bread tastes. 4.13

    Definitely the best song on the album! Riff at 1:45 is the shit. I got goosebumps for sure.

    [​IMG] This is my first Saturday off since early April. My brother’s father in-law passed last week and they are doing the service this morning. Packed the cooler for the party after and was asked if I would mind making up some bloody Mary’s and I make one hell of of a bloody. This was a great and simple man that was family to me. Still having a early glass of juice as I prep and this stuff is amazing. Cheers all.

    [​IMG] @TheIPAHunter was right these BIG breweries struggle with hitting the mark on this style. Always less expensive but never as good. Still not bad, just meh.

    Good day BAs! Off to a chilly start but it looks like the frost missed us last night, so my peppers survived to grow another day - everything else is dead. Today's New Breakfast Beer:

    I'll be reviewing this beauty in a moment over on New Beer Weekend. If you are having a beer that is new to you - that is, a beer you've never had before - and would like to share your thoughts, why not come join us? :grinning:

    Cheers!

    Hey BA’s - Live the rest of your life like every day is Saturday. I’m not sure who to attribute that quote to, but worthy advice just the same. This concoction may sound gimmicky, but they really did pull off the flavor profile of an oatmeal cookie dipped in bourbon. This is my 2nd and final can of it until the local bottle-shop scores another batch.

    Mornin' and happy Saturday. After a quick 4 mile run, back up to 40 miles a week running.
    Never thought I'd be able to do grad school miles again.
    Reward? P-Dub Lizard King on a beautiful morning.
    Also, a shot of anti-gravity Lill as she messes around. Cheers!
