    Good Monday all!

    Not something you’ll see me drinking often, yet a real treat. Belgian Kasteel Donker:

    And a Happy Monday to you, @Shanex. Here's the excellent Baltic Porter from Buoy Beer in Astoria, Oregon.

    Aromatic with some coffee and cocoa among the roast grain. Sudsy and creamy mouthfeel. Warm and mellow but dark flavors. Deep roasted malty taste with burnt sugar a touch of raisins. Just the right strength and not overly sweet. Moderate bitterness in the aftertaste with a lingering burnt malt flavor. I see this is the fourth Baltic Porter I've had recently, and this might be the best. It seems to be so well balanced among all the flavors and fancies.

    Mactrail, I must admit I love a good Baltic Porter. Two of the very best stouts I've ever had were those...from Windsor's Craft Heads and Montreal's Brasserie McAuslan, respectively. But, I digress...

    At my lady Pamela's house, with her two marvelous cats. My first for the day is my first from Carlsberg Canada, brewing in Kitchener, Ontario, their 5.5% Tuborg Gold (the import, original version is from Copenhagen, Denmark). With Gracie...

    My second, with Sundae (speaking of stouts...both meanings of the word hahahahaha!), is my eleventh from nearby Windsor's Chapter Two Brewing Company on Edna St. They're a really warm and friendly place, with lots of board games, crokinole and euchre tournaments, and ambience. I want to try their kitchen, one of these days, either, once again, with my Responsible Beer Drinking Club (weekly) or with my Monthly Dinner Outing Group (both founded, and led since, August 2016!). Don't know why the bizarre light variation ended up in my photo...that's the first time it's ever happened to me...

    Cheers, and have a great rest of your day, from McGregor! =)

    Happy Monday BAs

    Had a nice "most of the weekend" visit with my gf - we did some hiking Saturday afternoon, and some kayaking yesterday - lots of fun, despite the heat!

    Cheers!

    Good morning, BAs! Vanilla Bean Catharsis proved a good pairing for yesterday morning (along with Wimbledon), so I decided to open my last can and repeat the routine. :slight_smile:

    Back home in Ocala after getting up at 0230 today to fly from St. Louis to Orlando. Sip with a great Clase Azul tequila shot.

    It's going to be a hot day today, so I played an early round of golf. Now I'm in air conditioning, where I shall remain for the rest of the day.

    Good day BAs. a lovely day here with abundant sunshine and a light breeze. I think I'll breeze on over to the garage and flirt with my lil' beer fridge. Probly a good idea to start this week off with the C-3PO of beer cans: Miller Lite 50th anniversary gold can. If they were to put 0.50% more taste in the beer, I wouldn't complain. :grin: Cheers!

    Thanks to @ZlaVydra tipping me off, I'm enjoying a Fuller's ESB on draft with my Ceasar salad at Summits in Cumming, GA. Such a unique beer. Caramel & toffee malt, spicy & grassy hops. Fruit esters. Wonder thick, mousse-like head that just hangs. Cheers and thanks bro!

    This is rather tasty - Strong Side Brewing Groundwork IPA. Currently being contract brewed by Castle Island Brewing in Norwood MA. I was a bit skeptical because I have never really cared for Castle Island brews, but this one is good,

    The weather is low 70s with a breeze off Rainy Lake. We will likely go back to the brewery this evening. Cheers from Lake Rainy Visitor’s Center, Voyageurs National Park, MN, y’all!
