    #2, it should be a felony to make a beer this good. The dark chocolate lives strong in this iconic RIS. Absolutely love it.

    1) Golden Light (4.1%): A light beer from Anheuser in Missouri that has flavors of
    versus
    2) Miller Light (4.2%): A light American lager from Wisconsin that has strong yeast and corn adjunct flavors. More malty
    (Mismatched these two blind)

    3) Firestone Lager (4.5%): A German helles lager from California brewed since 2000 and has smooth and easy, drinking flavors of pale malts, lemon citrus and light honey and Munich malts. Crisp and Clean
    versus
    4) Great Lakes’ Dortmunder Gold (5.8%): A European Export beer from Ohio that has strong bread malts, earthy honey, and light flowery flavors.

    5) Three Floyd’s Barbarian Haze IPA (6.5%): A Hazy IPA from Indiana with flavors of orange, strawberry, and peach. Juicy and fruity.
    versus

    (Mismatched these two blind)
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Winners:

    1) Michelo Golden Light:
    This one surprised me. Hard to beat Miller light in light beer. It has light and clean flavors, but also a light smooth honey note on the finish. Extremely drinkable.

    4) Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold: This one has nice and balanced flavors. One of my favorite lagers to date. Malty and flavorful.

    5) Three Floyd's Barbarian Haze: Interestingly much different and improvedon my second review. This one has has much more juicy and fruity flavors. More flavorful and juicy. Far more hazy-like.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Humbling when you're 1 for 3 on identifying the beer in the 3 testings. Oh well...
    Do you have a favorite Light adjunct lager?
    Do you enjoy Firestone Lager or Dortmunder Gold more?
    Have you tried Barbarian Haze and which of the Three Floyd's IPAs did you enjoy more? (Foggy Geezer or Barbarian Haze?)

    Apparently Air France requires a negative COVID test to allow you to fly. They won’t accept a rapid one, so you have to get a big boy. Luckily I was able to get one today. If not… Anyway, results should be available in 24-48 hours. My flight is Saturday night.

    Can to come:

    Hoping it gets better for your brother. The only thing good about the week is that it inevitably comes to an end. Cheers.
