Felt very confident going in that the Cowboys would roll by at least 10 points over the Bucs. Here is a toast to knocking out the GOAT

Enjoying a lovely Saison from Zebulon Artisan Ales on this fine 60-degree day south of Asheville.

...playing the archtop tonight, listening to jimmy bruno. man i love his playing. salud BAs! xoxo!!

...i post this one often, but i love his solo, comes in at the one minute mark.

...and this album is great all around. and who doesn't love nostalgia in times square.

 

Not bad, but too expensive. My local place loves to price gouge too, so that doesn’t help. Beachwood 8Buffalo Bourbon:

 

Dang, Are you on Tuesday or Monday time? Over here east of The Appalachians, on The Piedmont Plateau, it is foggy, rainy, and 49F. It's a classic Piedmont Wedge. Colder air trapped up against the mountains and a warmer air east. It can persist for a few days on occasion. I cannot say "poor Tom Brady".

 

1) Drekker Morning Ritual (6.4%): A Coffee Stout from North Dakota with flavors of smooth chocolate, roasted coffee, bittersweet cocoa and lactose. Smooth and malty.
versus
2) Third Space Mocha Java Porter (7.0%): A Porter from Wisconsin with flavors of roasted coffee, cocoa, and bitterness. Dry and thin. (mismatched the two beers blind)

Winner:
1) Drekker Morning Ritual:
Coffee Stouts are hit or miss for me. Too much coffee and not enough sweet malt to balance the coffee astringency can ruin them and drink like wet coffee grounds. That's what Third Space does to me here. Drekker has just the right amount of coffee flavor with sufficient lactose and malt to tame some of the coffee notes. I usually don't drink this style unsure of whether I'm going to find a nice Stout or wet coffee grounds.

 

It is a great thing to behold and to be part of. Cheers.....

 

Really enjoying this blueberry lambic style from pFriem. Cheers!

 

Work day done and enjoying a Danger Beach IPA on the porch in the 72 degree sun......

 

A very late, little lunch after an excursion into the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont!
Cheers!!



16 ounce can.
Canned 01/11/23.

Moderate pour yields a 3/4 inch tan head over a black body with very sticky, sheeting lacing.
Holy sheets!

Nose of dark roasted malts and dark chocolate.
As it warms it smells of all the chocolates!
Yowza!

Taste is dark, bitter chocolate and finishing with bitter, unsweetened chocolate.
As it warms it becomes more roasty.

Feel is very nice; (think light cream.)

Overall, what an utter joy to drink this and so glad I have seven more cans
as I can't get out there as much as I'd like since my days off are Hill's days off.
You better get out there before they're sold out (cuz you ain't gettin' none of mine!!!)


Cheers!!!

 

What a game last night can't believe Brady choked that hard! Hope everyone is doing well. Drinking Green City by Other Half Brewing canned on 12/21/22.





Cheers!

 

Hey Dick,
Thanks for sharing a bit about NC weather quirks! Had a brief light rain shower at 2:15 and within a half hour it was gorgeous while i was out chatting with a neighbor. Tom is the GOAT but man he needs to understand when to say when!
Cheers!
Tom

 

Cheers Virtual Bar Flies and armed aliens!

 

Oof, ok, errands/chores, done, student meeting done.
A little tired, but hey... beer waits for no one.

Another start on a 4 pack of Pipeworks Forest Fauna.

As you know, I'm fond of this beer. Cheers!
