    Happy Saturday to all my American, European and, heaven forbid, Australian friends! It's the evening here in Oz, and what better way to start it than with New Zealand brewery 8 Wired's Wild Feijoa Sour Ale 2020, a sour ale brewed with feijoas (yeah, me neither) and aged in wine barrels.

    Sour as; hopefully opening up as it warms.

    Cheers!

    Good day BAs and Good Evening @AzfromOz! Thanks for starting the thread! I've had one brew from 8-Wired - iStout Affogato - and it still leaves a bad taste in my mouth - hope your beer warmed up to taste better than mine!

    Thank you @AzfromOz for starting the thread. How rude of those kiwis to try and wreck your palate. I have worked with a few of them and I can say that they are a mischievous bunch (at least that's what I gathered from the handful words I'd understand each time they said something).

    My roaming or northern Greece continues. Went for a wine tour of the Alpha Estate. In-freaking-sane quality. It is located between two lakes, Vagoritida and Petron and I'm including some photos. Did not bring warm enough clothes so I froze my butt off. Greece can get cold folks.

    Much sunnier in Thessaloniki. Beyond the bay you will notice the snow-capped silhouette of Mt Olympus.

    About to open up this bad boy to have with lunch. Septem is a well known Greek craft brewery, making a surprisingly wide variety of lagers.

    Don't worry, we have the same problem! They're not a bad bunch, though, and good to have by your side in a fight.

    Can't say it did, but I'm not a fan of the style. Tried to rate to style, though!

    Cheers!

    Bought 2 of these 2019 bottles last week at my local shop for 8.60euro. Still my favorite cantillon! Better than those noseberry loons at quintessance 8) Cheers!

    Good morning/afternoon/evening BAs! Busy beautiful day so far…in addition to the usual morning routine, I dropped Mrs. Z and her friend off at this weekend’s huge lawn & garden festival. Afterwards I went on my Saturday morning beer run…coffee time - KBS:

    [​IMG]

    Bottled 3/1/22. Poured at 54°. I had to go to 2 big box stores (no FBS either at the grocery store) today to find this beer (I’ve been looking of late). Still lots of this winter’s variants on the shelves - Hazelnut, and Espresso, each @ $26.99/4 and Cinnamon @$27.99/4. While I like the Hazelnut, I prefer the OG especially @$18.99/4.

    Today should hit the mid 80s again here, sunny and breezy, gorgeous weather. The girls should have a great day at the show. In anticipation of their impulse buying, upon returning home I emptied out our SUV to accommodate any plant purchases. Otherwise a quiet day for me at home with the dogs. Cheers and have a sensational Saturday y’all!

    Happy Saturday BA's, off today and slept in until 0715! Chores done and prepping for lunch with a WW Dr. Dank and it's great! I can't believe how much better these self contained pool cleaners are over the typical vacuum hose cleaners. If away from home you can leave it in the pool and program it to run 1-3 times per week and emptying the self contained catch basket is a breeze.....

    Hopefully everyone is enjoying outdoor type weather today, 76 and headed to 84 here....

    Something small and heavy to start the day. Going to hit 80 here, warmest so far all year, so going to be working outside quite a bit. Happy Saturday, advocates! [​IMG]
    Will play some 1986 tracks from WXRT’s Saturday Flashback later. For now, a song inspired by a conversation with some friends about edibles and a trip to Texas.
