    3.76/5 rDev -6.2%
    look: 3.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

    Honey amber body with a slight haze; decent carbonation, a bit effervescent; initial thick head that quickly dissipates to a thin wisp on top of the beer. Nice toasted grain aroma; a bit of herbal and grassy hop smell. Toasted grain and honey taste; moderate hop bitterness; some indistinct esters in the background. Medium body; some residual sugar grittiness; seems a bit thin overall; light sugary sweetness that finishes with a subtle dryness.

    A fair beer, a little rough around the edges, but enjoyable overall.

    ,,,and the second beer I had at Cerberus earlier this afternoon to go with my smoked brisket and Gryuere cheese sandwich - The Dale End - an American lager with Ahtanum and Saaz hops - it was very delicious...

    I’m told it usually gets snapped up pretty fast when they distribute it, rarely makes it out of Maine.

    Lawson's Double Sunshine Ruby Red Grapefruit. It's so pretty I kind of hated to drink it. But I got over it.

    I'm at one of my favorite tap rooms, Tapped Craft and Drafts in Greenville NC.
    I'm drinking a Gizmo Brew Works Dad Jokes Pilsener.
    Soft and a bit lemony it's absolutely delicious!
    Cheers!

    Happy 420 hump day. Fairly busy running engine analyses all day and held a short meeting for packaging. Picked up a bunch of thc edibles and carts yesterday so its been a good day. We are making sausage and onions with spiced rice. I am going to finish 2001 A Space Odyssey today because I can't put it down. Some notable differences to the movie but still keeping the same plot line. I just finished the silencing of Hal chapter. Also the chapter that shows you Hal's thought process about overtaking the mission is legendary.

    So we begin the journey that @FBarber hath bestow upon me. Pipeworks Double Vanilla Phantom Unicorn. 2022 vintage. Surprisingly great head retention. Light lacing. Aromas and flavors of big vanilla cream, fudge, dark chocolate, cocoa, caramel, molasses, toffee, bourbon, toasted oak, dark bread; light coffee, smoke, char, licorice, dark fruit, herbal, pine, and yeast earthiness. Stronger vanilla cake aromas, with flavors trending more towards molasses and dark fruits. Aromas not too boozy either. Light-moderate pine/herbal/char bitterness and bourbon/oak spiciness on the finish. Medium carbonation and very full body. Very creamy, silky, slicky, and fairly syrupy mouthfeel. Some increasing sticky hop, chalky roast, and oak tannin drying after the finish. No cloying/acrid/astringency. Light increasing warmth and mild booze lasting after the finish. 12.8% certainly is not a secret, can feel it halfway through the glass. The lactose thickness was a bit too much to the low end of syrupy, but the barrel was in good presence to provide some tannic balance to help the bitter hops. A very rich treat as to be expected of an imperial milk stout. Slow to enjoy, but satisfying in complexity. 4.12

    Was watching a little TV. I try to watch as much as Jeopardy as possible. I don't remember one contestant ( The Canadian Lady ) go in final with no opponents. She seems like a good kid but her conservative waging will get her killed in the Tournament of Champions this Summer.

    Not big on the NBA, but always liked Celtics since the 70s, the fact they are up 2-0 on KD, gold! ( OKC fan until I realized the owner even gave up in them )





    Edit: Surly Mapping the Multiverse Hazy IPA
