    Infiltrator from Root + Branch. This is 100% Nelson Sauvin, so you know I'm happy. As in Halloween? Yeah, maybe. I love you.

    My street has been done for awhile…I needed some coffee, so my dinner prep beer is FBS:

    I’ve spent way too much time on this year’s indoor masterpiece, Halloween Village:

    Twenty-one pieces light up (a few also play music/ moan and groan/give fortunes, etc.), a couple just move, 27 in all…about 1/2 of my collection. What can I say? I love Halloween!

    Well, it looks like the T&T's are done. I hung the @beergoot shower pic on the door and haven't had anyone since. So I will imbibe a Heady Topper ..

    Dovetail Brewing Co. -- Helles Lager
    Helles lager
    ABV: 4.4%; Pouring temperature: n/a; canning info: unreadable
    Source: @Danmullens1 (his dad raised him right)

    [​IMG]

    4.02/5 rDev -1.5%
    look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

    Outstanding pale yellow body; huge head, spongy texture, sculpted, long lasting. Fine aroma; light, bready malt; biscuit; a dab of honey; mild, slightly floral note in the background. The flavor nicely mimics the aroma; beautiful gentle malt sweetness; mild to moderate hop bitterness; a touch of herbal hop flavor. Medium body; slight coarseness on the palate; moderate residual sugar density; nice balance between sweetness and dryness.

    Dovetail has brewed a nice take on the helles lager style. It easily meets all the BA style descriptions. A very pleasant sipper.

    ...a nice beer to watch the start of Monday Night Football (Bengals vs Browns) this Halloween evening on my first night back in Ohio...

    ...and Ballast Point certainly caught a lot of flack when they were bought (I believe) by Kings and Convicts Brewing...I don't know if anything really changed with the beer, though. It was once widely distributed in Colorado, but I haven't seen it in years...

    Teddy has never dressed up as Big Bird,
    He has his dignity

    ...Lionel Barrymore in 'Rasputin and The Empress' (1932) is an entertaining if not very historical take on Rasputin...

    Right along here ba. Kbs, maple Mackinac fudge variant. Always impressive at how smooth and clean these drink at its high abv. The fudge does really seem to over dominate the beer as a whole. I’m not in love w/ it but it’s decent drinking none the less,

    Even teddy has enough dignity left that he's not dressing up as big bird.
    Now a cowboy though is not humiliating at all[​IMG]

    Your dog looks as happy as those armadillos on page one. Hopefully he won’t give you Leprosy or serve you a Guinness in a dirty glass.
