What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #4004

4 Hands Fest Bier

 

1) Modist The Time Is Nigh (5.2%): A Festbier from Minneosta aged in oak barrels for flavors of pale Munich malts, some. honey and floral notes with some hints of earthy oak.
versus
2) Toppling Goliath Oktoberfest (5.2%): A Marzen from Iowa with flavors of pale Munich, some grains and honey. Dry and crisp finish. (Mismatched the two beers blind)

Winner:
1) Modist The Time Is Nigh: Oktoberest battle. Toppling Goliath has impressed me this year with a very standard and drinkable Oktoberfest. I actually though this was a festbier, but pours darker and now listed online as Marzen.
Modist makes some cool beers that is aged in oak barrels and same with their Festbier. A tame festbier but with some fantastic earthy and oaky and lightly floral flavors. Lots of flavors here and still drinks respectably light. Great Festbier nuance from Modist.

 

One week from today I've got the USATF New England Mountain Running Championship.

Wait a second. They are from Virginia, what do they know about the West Coast?

 

Nice view, loved to get up to Sedona periodically in the summer from PHX over the years. I suspect you have been on US89-A which is a great drive to Flagstaff. Be sure to hit Dark Sky, Historic, and Mother Road in Flag. The Majestic Marketplace Bottleshop is a great shop to hit up but be sure to check dates as their inventory is quite large. Have fun!

Enjoying a stellar BBA Barleywine from Jackie O's and a little college football this afternoon.
Cheers!

Thanks for the recommendations. We are staying in Flagstaff ,and drove down 89A to Sedona it was 25 miles of beauty

 

Drinking a fine wet hopped ale at Little House Brewing. There's a bridesmaid party here with many hot young women. The beer is good but the view is better. Don't worry, I'm here with my wife. She's better than all of them.

 

One more for the road (or at least Uber) at Highland Park Brewing since I’ll be drinking wine at the wedding reception tonight: Old Youth, a BA Barlywine/Imperial Stout blend. It’s exquisite in every respect! Today’s only disappointment was Mizzou’s collapse. They should have beaten LSU.

 

Beer was so good at the tavern downtown decided to go to the source Sedona Beer Company.
