    Cross post from NBW:

    Happy long weekend! Today's first choice is from Cellarest Beer Project in West Asheville called Finesse Pilsette. It weighs in at 3.2%. It is made with Cumberland pilsner from Riverbend & Great Chit malt. Hopped delicately with Styrian Golding, Citra, Mosaic & Galaxy. Fermented inside our acacia wood foudre.

    Onto the review:
    4.18/5 rDev 0%
    look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25

    Picked up a 16 oz can from the taproom cooler 8-4-25 for $5.25. No canning date but it appears it was packaged in late July; consumed for review 8-30-25. Cold stored since purchase.

    Beer poured clear gold with a nice fizzy white head.

    Nose is giving me a nice touch of floral and citrus hops.

    Taste is a very light pale malt that brings some saltine cracker flavor. Hopping brings a very light touch of orange and passion fruit. Back-end spicing gives me a nice touch of pine and pepper bitterness: 6/10 on my scale.

    Mouthfeel is light and very refreshing, yet soft and smooth.

    Overall, this is a lovely refreshing and flavorful brew that hits the spot after working in the yard earlier.
    Cheers!

    @thehyperduck Nice pour with the matching glass! I haven't had the White Picket Fence for a long time. Glad to hear it's still good.

    Still watching the US Open. Enjoying a Notch The Creek, Czech Style Pils, brewed with Indiana malt.

    Onto round 2, the Abbey Ale from Ommegang. I generally try to semi-clear the palate between rounds, but the licorice root is really standing out today.
    Cheers!

    [​IMG] This is one of Kettlehead’s Dank brews brewed with terpes part of the cannabis flower. I feel they need to dial it back with using them, but I don’t hate them either. @LarryV movie afternoon and enjoying this also. Hard hitting.[​IMG]

    Hard to pass on it when it's typically the freshest and arguably one of the best available in my neck of the woods :beers:

    Edit: $20/12pk doesn't hurt either :wink:

    Can't get the imgur link to work. So far I've enjoyed a Hacker Pschorr Marzen and am currently enjoying a Weihenstephaner Festbier. Both are really good beers but neither are elite by any means. Currently I've only dosed 10 mg of THC but I do believe that I will soon up that and dose another 10. In my fridge are an Ayinger Marzen, Stone IPA, Elysian Pumpkin Ale, and Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest. I wish I would've picked up something dark and rich like a founders KBS but I only saw the iced latte flavor at total wine. Might have to walk down to Publix at halftime and pickup a four pack and maybe even some darts. What're you drinking today?
