What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #3340

Good morning!

xmas calendar #12

What a nice beer - Prost!

 

Good day BAS! And thanks @SawDog505 for kicking off today's thread! Starting today a bit milder than yesterday:



Seems kinda weak in the aroma and flavor departments, but then I usually drink PseudoSue as my pale Ale of choice, or Sierra Nevada if PS isn't available. Rating 3.28, rDev -8.1%

IMHO, a better version

 

Good morning BAs! I’m still holed up in my hotel room, drinking Hardywood’s “Bourbon Barrel GBS” that I picked up in Richmond yesterday:



Bottled 10/15/21. Poured at 56°. Tan, somewhat fizzy mixed bubbles; some cap retention; solid ring; soapy lace, especially with agitation; thin legs. Honey and bourbon nose; ginger and molasses as it warms. Taste is honey, ginger, brown sugar sweetness; bourbon, cinnamon; chocolate as it warms up; molasses in the middle; honey, ginger, and bourbon on the backend. Medium body; a little warmth from 11.5% abv; light carbonation; dry barrel finish. Overall I like as much as the base GBS which I had on tap a few days ago; the bourbon flavor replaces the chocolate I tasted and n the base; it’s thin for abv; the honey and ginger dominate the linger; an excellent Christmas imperial stout with layers of “holiday” flavors.

4.5 | 4.5 | 4.5 | 4.0 | 4.5
Score: 4.45 rDev +1.8%
Slightly lower than my 2019 review.

Cheers from Lewisburg, WV and have a great day y’all!

Nice looking, but rather so-so.

 

Hey BA's - happy sunny Sunday - much nicer - though cooler - day in store today vs Saturday
Already did some grocery shopping and cleaning and getting ready to think about an early lunch....

Frank Sinatra was my Dad's all time favorite - especially at Christmas time....

 

Happy Sunday Advocates! Thanks @SawDog505 for unfolding todays thread. This morning calls for a scrappy breakfast of Vienna bread, pork sausages, pepper jack cheese and Leinenkugel's Toasted Bock. It is yummy! Imagine a slightly thinner Hofbrau Dunkel. That's pretty much it and it's very clean. I'll eventually post it in New Beer Wknd as well but I'll need another just to be sure Also time now to cruise around thru my record collection and I've chosen Leonard James Boppin' and a Strollin'. Recognize any names on the back cover? If not, Malcolm R. is who we know today as DR. John. This is the 1st record he ever played on. Cool! This stereo LP was a good find. It's campy but fun. Cheers folks! Great to be here with you!

 

Cheers!

 

Enjoying this lovely lager now

My God.
Thoughts go out to those in Western Kentucky. The devastation is incredible. Peace to those that have lost everything. Hope you receive the help you so desperately need.

 

A fridge straggler where the kid should probably look older on the label. Still a wonderful beer!

 

I was away for a few hours this morning and my partner made pecan pancakes w/bananas, maple sausage, Vermont maple syrup.....and I picked a KBS to go with it. Cheers mates.

Oh boy, what a great song, I wish I could have drank and BS'd with him.....
