    Wolfe’s Neck. An IPA brewed by Maine Beer Company. These Maine IPAs are great.

    :grin:I’ll still drink out of pretty much anything, but the glassware I do have that I bought specifically for beer drinking I definitely want kept nice. I’m still not above using a plastic cup at a hotel or drinking from the can when I’m outside though.

    I'm surprised. It's very rare that we get distro of a beer when NY doesn't. Hopefully it's reasonably fresh. Cheers!

    Poison ivy sucks. I hope you feel better very soon! That looks like a great Baltic Porter (one of my favorite styles).

    Teku survived: Stem is a bit tricky this time around, so took the can while (meditatively) eyeballing the precise approach

    Stoneface Thanks I'll Walk

    From a pint can marked FERCANDO ALONSO 07/29/01

    Poured into my tulip this beer is a murky opaque pineapple juice color with a fluffy cloud of cream foam. Bubbly lace on the sides of the glass as the foam settles.

    Scent is immediately (notice it on opening the can) pineapple and tropical fruit. Lime. Grapefruit. Soapy and spicy hop notes. Pine needles.

    Taste is tropical fruits - mango, pineapple - citrus (tangerine grapefruit and lime) and an earthy, spicy (pepper, coriander) and mildly dank hop notes. There's a dry rye bread crust note buried in the layers. Sort of like the rye crisps in a bag of chex mix. Mint and green melon notes appear as the beer warms and the finish becomes longer and spicier. I would swear I even get something like wintergreen in the finish. There's a fine balance between sweetness, dryness and bitterness; all of them by turns but none seems to overshadow the others.

    Mouth is a creamy medium.

    Another great IPA from Stoneface. Lots of hop aroma and flavor in a well balanced ale with an expertly hidden ABV.

    It's been a really good day. I just want to tell my brother @CanConPhilly that I hope he's having the best day possible. I love you, and happy birthday. I'm dedicating this next song to you. Much love, brother. Peace...
    Oh, and the beer. The beer should speak volumes!

    At work a bit late. We are still trying to make up for the consequences of COVID-19 on our business. New York City is basically a sauna in the evening. Got home, put on the AC, and cracked open a Jjjuliusss from Tree House Brewing in Charleton, Massachusetts. That really did hit to spot. Look at that head!



    Stay Safe, Be Right There With It, and Sláinte!
