What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #3337

Duclaw Sour Me Mimosa.



This is a very good sour.

 

We're up and going and I'm having a Bud.

 

Good morning BAs! A cold 28° here in The Fan…the cats have been fed and petted, the kitchen cleaned…warming up with a special beer - Avery Brewing’s “The Beast” Grand Cru Oak Aged Ale (Release July 2016 Batch No. 14):



Poured at 51°. I drank a bottle in 2019 and in 2020 and loved the oak/aging…At roughly 5 1/2 years this beer is fantastic! Oak, honey, caramel, dusty dry dates & figs; no maple can I find; more honey as beer warms; sweet Belgian candy/sugar finish. And did I mention (16.8%)? Heat in the mouth. Reminds me of how DFH 120 ages…a sipper for sure.

Cheers y’all and have a great day!

 

Left Hand Mint Chocolate.

 

Yeah. Recyc pic, day off from the real stuff. Fake watermelon Gose stuff.
Cheers!

 

It's cool and cloudy, with maybe some rain later.
Last one of these, will have to get some more.

 

A great choice for a cold day!

 

Stone 25 Triple IPA.

@Snowcrash000 I did find this in a local supermarket. I must add that this is a rather huge supermarket located in the so called Mall of the Netherlands. The beer shelves are somewhat like a bottleshop. Friendly prices too. However I end up with a higher bill for the beer compared to groceries when I go there.

Cheers all!

 

I'm starting off the day with a pint of Captain Lawrence Snyder Bier, a pretzel marzen. It's good, but nothing fancy. Caramel and dough (like a pretzel, duh) malts. I rated it 3.87, just a tick below its average of 3.96.

 

Hot roast beef sandwich with fries on the side and a Bud.

 

In my glass now is Le Cochon Noir from Sterling Pig Brewery, a near enough local out of Media, PA. It's a schwarzbier that is advertised as having chocolate and light coffee notes. Well, the coffee is dominant and the chocolate is very light. Not that there's anything wrong with that. A solid beer from a good brewery. I rated it 3.81, which can't be compared to anything b/c I'm the only review.

 

Hunter - Sounds like you are having a great visit. I hope you are able to enjoy at least one CheeseSTEAK sandwich before leaving the City of Brotherly Love.

Pulled an oldie, and turned out to be a goodie, from the cellar, an eight year old Flanders Oud Bruin.

Destihl Brewery Saint Dekkera Reserve Sour Ale



Full review in the Cellar Review Thread. Bottom line, this held up very well, so glad I popped this open today after some trepidation eight years may have hurt this. It did not.

These two tunes also held up well from 1975.
