    Happy birthday @RaulMondesi! If you need a down under representative, just drop me a line c/o Prime Minister Albo, and we'll see what we can line up.

    Today's holiday beer is Hop Burst IPA from Blackman's Brewery. Gotta love a good red IPA!

    Good day BAs! Happy nekkid day to @RaulMondesi and thanks for starting today's thread.
    Well, we've got 2-3 inches of the white stuff covering the ground and unheated structures (13F/-11C with continuing light snow), so it's beginning to look a lot like Groundhog Day!
    Today's New Breakfast Beer, thanks to @muchloveforhops3 and BSBIF#1:

    Final impression and summation: 4 Looks basically like every other winter warmer I’ve tried. Aroma and flavor favor cherries, my favorite non-citrus fruit to be added to a beer. This is slightly on the syrupy side but doesn’t approach cough syrup. The promised barrel and vanilla flavors are very difficult to detect. In general, a decent cherry-based winter warmer. Thanks Doug!
