    Good morning one and all, and welcome to a glorious Sunday of beer and lust for life.

    Baby deer wandering around Higgins Road a few blocks from my house after midnight, tried getting I believe a her back toward the graveyard to no avail.

    Starting with a very light and easy Grodziskie, brewed on behalf of Goldfinger's first anniversary in a collaboration with Live Oak Brewery in Austin, Texas.

    Goldfinger / Live Oak Grodziskie-Style Lager

    Full review in the New Beer Sunday #859 thread, embedded in New Beer Weekend #55. Long story short, this is a more laid back, well balanced Grodziskie than I have had in the past. Light easy, more hoppy than expected, works very well, very enjoyable and I highly recommend and hope both breweries continue to brew this style. Will return with a stand-alone offering by Goldfinger later today.

    Two more from 1977...

    Morning @ChicagoJ and all,

    This Bavarian beer is becoming a regular of mine. Pretty palatable, and refreshing yet flavorful too. Great. I think I did a good job with that pour.

    Since it is Sunday morning and most everybody is gone somewhere warm or was still sleeping, I took the time to clean my car.

    Cheers.

    Good day BAs! Thanks, @ChicagoJ ,for starting today's thread. Rain overnight so muggy this morning - need to grab my machete and seek out zucchini - I know they're lying in wait for me, big, surly, hulking zukes. Today's New Breakfast Beer (Cross-post with NBW/NBS):

    Really a step down from the base beer. Rating 3.13, rDev -9%.

    A little late to the virtual bar today. But everybody else slept late and I got some reading in, so that’s good. Not as good as this beer, though. [​IMG]
    No baby deer around here, @ChicagoJ, but I’ll see your Rush and add one back.

    Happy Sunday BA's! Three hours of overtime and a (almost) 15 mile bike ride complete. Thanks to all runners and cyclists on BA that helped motivate me to get back out. It wasn't pretty but it's a start. Time to build a fire.....Jai Alai as a reward.....
