    Bought a variety schwarzbier four pack featuring four different area coffee roasters. I like these types of varietals, first I recall having were the Coffee Eugene variants from Revolution. I liked the 12 oz draft pour of this particular variant yesterday, but I’m rating it now for the first time.

    Khoury's Neighborhood CoffeeHaus 2022-Dark Moon

    Brewery Notes:
    $16 16 ounce four pack plus tax & tip. 4.8% ABV canned 7/25/22. Refrigerated at the brewery and upon my return to the hotel until now. This is a Schwarzbier. Brewer and canned by CraftHaus Brewery, Henderson, Nevada.

    A true local collaboration brewer up between CraftHaus Brewery, Khoury’s Fine Wine and Spirits featuring Dark Moon Coffee Roasters. Your neighborhood represented right here in one ultimate show of community.

    Appearance: Multiple pours into a shaker pint glass in my hotel room at The Sahara. Dark brown to black base, tan soapy head leaves a slight cover over the base and a richer ring. Soapy lacing recedes quickly. 4.25

    Aroma:
    Excellent dark roast coffee, rich chocolate roast malt. Very enticing, quite excellent. 4.75

    Taste:
    Consistent with the aroma, though flipped in terms of the lead. The nice slightly sweet roast malt comes first, the bitter coffee follows helping balancing things out. The bitterness does win out, which works for me. 4.25

    Mouthfeel:
    Heavy carbonation adds to a creamy medium body. Slightly bitter, sweetness peaks through at times. Very light and easy drinking alcohol wise, though the carbonation is making me a bit bloated despite a normal aggressive pour into the center of the glass. 4.0

    Overall:
    This is a solid offering. Coffee is one of the few adjuncts I still seek out, and this one does not disappoint. The base beer complements well the roast coffee. Highly recommend if you like coffee and a malty beer (the latter usually not my first preference), can’t wait to try the other three. 4.25

    Dedicating this pour to Rocket @beergoot and his family. I recall tagging you when I first stumbled upon WBAYDN, and commenting how I love your icon picture, primarily for the joy you and your dog shared at that moment, and four fourteen years. Remember your great times together, and know you did right by Rocket today.

    Sierra Nevada Distillers Grain Bill, enjoyed at their Mills River brewery. At long last I've returned to North Carolina, with more money and pride in myself than i had when i left.

    Good afternoon BAs!

    Buddy of mine just returned from vacation with 3 assorted cases of Treehouse. We'll be drinking good next few days for sure.

    How appropriate that my photo is Hazy....

    Half decent stout. A little overpowering with the coffee and a little on the thin side but still enjoyable.

    Hello Advocates and thanks @DoctorZombies for todays thread. Sorry to hear about the loss of our friends mascots and pets. These events stop our machinery and break our armor. We become pure human emotion. On a bright note...There's a little fuzzy critter out there right now that really needs a loving home...
    Alright. If one beer and one beer only were to exist here in MN I would want it to be this:
    Summit Extra Pale Ale
    Cheers!

    ...Mrs. BeerGoot and I had Rocket the Wonder Dog euthanized at home about an hour ago...he went quietly and peacefully; Mrs. BG and I are doing well despite the difficult decision...to toast our deceased family member, a 'Lil' Critter' for me, and a 'Bud Light' for her...we had a good talk about what just happened and past memories of our loved one...

    ...I don't intend to fill my posts today with an excessive amount of Rocket pictures, but there will be a few throughout the day...in this post, the first pic is a small memorial we set up on one of our counters...the picture is a favorite of Mrs. BG's of the young Rocket with his head stuck in a bit of lattice work (the second pic)...the third is a later picture that I used for my former BA avatar...

    New to me beer by Lone Pint. I emailed them because I couldn't figure out the hop/grain bill on this, limited info on the can. They actually got back to me pretty fast. So it's single hopped with Centennial and Pilsner malt. Im definitely enjoying it. It's like a cross between a Yellow Rose and Two Hearted ale.

    Cheers y'all!

    ...a gentle, long rain has been falling since his euthanasia...I'm now in the Fortress of Solitude, reminiscing through various pictures of our friend...to say Rocket had a way of bonding with us a vice versa is an understatement...

    Brooklyn East India Pale Ale, an IPA that has been around for a long time and still hits the spot.
