    Drekker Chonk Banana Split Sundae Sour, 6% ABV. Pours thick and opaque medium-red, with a one-finger pink head that left foam and puree residue, much of which ended up in my mustache. Nose is banana, strawberry, chocolate, and lactose. Taste follows, quite like a banana split, moderately sweet, faintly tart. Decent thick and creamy mouthfeel. Overall outstanding.

    4.45/5 rDev -2.4%
    look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.5

    This is one of their better pastry/milkshake sours. Went down fast, must be good.

    No comment on the Alex Jones thing but folks probably know what I think. At least when I try to think. That said, the Jack Daniels has inspired me to partake in a bit of Maker’s Mark.

    I don't know how to start a forum on here, but a good one is the new National Shortage leading to Brewery Closings. What a travesty!
    If anyone wants to find the article and start the thread, could be interesting to hear people's thoughts and opinions.
    I'm drinking my own Texas Pilsner from Austin Homebrew Supply.
    Hopped with Saaz all the way.
    Very refreshing and perfect for this heatwave!
    Cheers!

    It's awesome (hope I didn't sound like a dick), we spend 3 nights at the Cliff House in Ogunquit and had a great time. Maine will be on our VRBO list for stays when we retire next year. Cheers and enjoy a well deserved vaca!!!!

    Bell's Double Two Hearted Ale - this is my first time having this beer and I was able to find a single so giving it a go. I'm not sure an 11% beer belongs in a 16 oz can (reminds me of Flying Dog Double Dog I have been seeing in 19.2 oz cans, yikes) but we shall see, canned on 07/16/22. Pours a massive frothy head that sticks as it settles, carbonation on the lower side, almost a burnt orange color. Smell is like 2H but amped up. Taste is...excellent, wow. I figured I would enjoy this for what it was but not as much as I am. It's definitely a big beer but the 11% is fairly well hidden. It's sweet up front but not too much and ends dryly; the hops are there but this is not a palate wrecker, which I enjoy. A slow sipper that remains interesting with each sip and as it warms it becomes a bit more complex, with the dryness rounding out a bit. And this is one of those beers that could be interesting to age just to see what happens to it over time.

    I had a 2H recently and I do think that I prefer this beer to the original. But the issue here is that at 11% this is not a beer you would want to have too often so because of that it's probably good that it's a once per year beer for now. However, if they were to dial this in to about 9% they may have something that could give 2H a run for its money. Budmo!
