What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #4379

Along here again ba. Whisper, marzen, tree house. Heavier on the malt but it’s still very crisp and clean. Notes of dark toasted bread, caramel, and some nutty notes. Good stuff,

 

4 Hands/Weldwerks Voltron Volume Six

 

That first Dunkel was tasty and easy. So I'll just have to enjoy zwei. Prost!



And zwei of the Bodeans...

 

I used to drink that many moons ago. Cool Stein

 

Fat Head's - Imperial Head Hunter

 

Hell yes Larry!!!!

 

Obelisk I Got You These HazyIPA

 

Ooh I bet that's tasty

 

Gnosis Diverge IPA (Citra, Galaxy, NZ Cascade, Nelson). They purposely did a higher attenuation on this one to make a drier, crisper, and more drinkable hazy. Their regular hazies are never too sweet, but this one almost gives it a hazy west coast vibe and I dig it. Getting passionfruit, NZ funk, guava, yellow grapefruit, tangelo, earthiness, lime, kiwi, and pine resin.

 

Oktoberfest - Cheers!!

 

I have a few stouts (e.g. BCBS 2019 and a 2023) that were stored in a cool area). Moved them and saw this. It is the last of a 2023 Christmas beer box I got from my daughter. Tastes ok.

 

@cheeseheadinMinneapolis so kindly gave me this closer for today.

From a 16oz can. No date on the can.

This beer has a very clear golden pour to it. I am somewhat surprised by it. There's a thick 3 finger fluffy white heat to this beer that prevents me from pouring the whole can in at once. Great head retention, and there's some lacing on the glass. This beer does murk up a bit as I pour in the rest of the can.
The wheat flavor is pleasing with a great mix of the banana and cloves.
Taste - Very strong with the banana flavor up front with the cloves right behind. I get a huge bubblegum flavor on the back, and have to wonder if there's some Belgian yeast in here. It is quite pleasing.
The body seems pretty damn good for the style. Full, and smooth.
I like this style, and this beer is a good representation of the style.

 

Cheers brother

 

It was way better than I expected to be honest. Intensely bitter and not too boozy. One of my favorite 9.5+% ABV IPAs out there

 

Drekker Oops! All Berries BRAAAAAAAAins Fruited Sour, 6.2% ABV. Pours opaque maroon with a slight ring of bubbles. Aroma is a medley of berries (strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, blueberry) though blueberry stands out. Taste follows, equally tart and sweet. Excellent smooth mouthfeel, overall excellent to outstanding-adjacent.

Getting my daily Veil Brewery vitamins.

 

Crisp

 

I knew they would eventually get around to reissuing this guy. Paired with Ommegang/DeKoninck's Super Bolleke.

Speaking of that, when I was in Amsterdam in 1993, I remember ordering a DeKoninck at a bar. They were served in tiny glasses, two at a time IIRC. The guy gives me two glasses of water. I said (politely) WTF? He replies, "you wanted tonic, no?"

 

Back to my favorite - Stone IPA



Wow this is a really good performance. "Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley", live at Red Rocks on 7/12/24 by The String Cheese Incident.

Such a damn fine band, I love their percussion section.
