    Saison Dupont (6.5%):
    A Belgian Saison with flavors of tart and sweet fruit, Belgian spices and smooth pale bread malts

    I call it the gold-standard and probably the best Saison I’ve had. Fruity with complex Belgian esters & spices. A smooth, soft, yet dry finish. I love Saisons because unlike my usual of hops drilling you in the face, there’s a complexity of flavors and mouthfeel. @EdmundExley knows. I used to drink this style more often, but now every time I do, I am reminded how good it is.

    I’ve never found it in can, @defunksta but I’d drink Saison Dupont all day, everyday if I could.

    My favorite from the left coast, perhaps any coast.

    Sox at the Mets for a series. Were my #1 and #3 favorites back in the day (Montreal #2), was disappointed with Shea 2.0 (and also Yankee Stadium 3.0). Then again, Comiskey 2.0 and Stade Olympique aren't the greatest either.

    Two from the Dead Hour yesterday, though by the OG artists and not the cover band currently touring and featured on the show on WDCB last night.

    The Rep. who distributes this stopped in work today, and dropped this off. We are getting some of this for the first time on Friday. Pretty good.

    Galactic Face Slap - Ursa Minor Brewing - Duluth, MN - NEIPA - 6.8% ABV

    4.05/5 rDev -2.4%
    look: 4.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4
    From a 16oz can.
    Hazy, and murky golden pouring beer. There's tons of carbonation in the can and it's a 5 finger white head, at it's most, and it took several pours to get all the beer in the glass. Quite frothy, and fluffy looking. The retention is decent overall. Some great lacing on the glass.
    Tons of tropical fruit hit from the hops. I get tangerine, pineapple, grapefruit, and all are quite strong, and pleasing.
    This is a very hoppy beer, as expected. I am getting more pineapple in the flavor, than the nose, and I'm also getting the tangerine and grapefruit in a decent amount.
    The body does have a bit of a juicy feeling to it, but not overly so. Somewhat soft feeling.
    This is quite good, and a pleasure to drink.

    Ain’t no beer like an airport beer. A Conshohocken Type A IPA. Helping me dealing with a canceled flight. And now a delayed replacement flight. Here’s to the joys of flying these days.

    Drinking A Fine Pilsner Beer BA :beers:

    Definitely not like "Damn Fine" or even "Fine and Dandy" for that matter. Or even like when your girl asks you how she looks before going out "you look fine". Just fine...as in it doesn't suck and serves it's purpose :beer:

    One hour into my project and I’ve carried boxes, plants, groceries for a total of 9 trips from the parking lot up the stairs and put it away in the condo…one more trip, and one more beer to go - WW’s Dr. Dank:

    I’m getting too old for this Florida summer time heat…at this time of year my house in WV (while hot) seems mighty appealing…the winters, not so much…Cheers y’all!

    Today was walking and $2 pints day. Surly Furious IPA was today's choice. Never had it on tap before, just cans. Outstanding! I believe I'll be updating my rating on this one.
