    ? really?

    For the second time in, I dunno, a week and change?, Kiribati, is called upon?

    OK, cool.

    Holla at @snaotheus for this La Cumbre Elevated IPA.

    Being honest here, I uh, had a long work day, and the bar Manager at the place next door to work was having her last night, and well, alcohol was involved.

    People diss this beer a lot, and I don't drink it often. But when in the mood I do enjoy it.
    Say what you will but this is a part of our heritage.
    And it's still very distinctive.
    Cheers

    Good day BAs! Thanks @BBThunderbolt for opening the bar! And @DoctorZombies - enjoy Ireland - hope you're not driving - those tour buses have the right of way and they'll run you off the roads.

    Today's New Breakfast Beer:

    [​IMG]

    Grande Triple from Ommegang. 16 fl oz can picked up at Franklin Beer, Franklin, PA, 28/08/25 - $ 4.50 (including tax)/$ 0.281/fl oz. Reviewed 15/09/25, review 3588.
    Final impression and summation: 3.5 (After deducting 0.25 point for an undated can) Uncredited artist. Average tripel – unable to find any trace of the additives in the nose, and the vanilla only shows in the aftertaste. Coffee, my favorite additive, is totally missing/hidden as are any alcohols. Overall, an unremarkable tripel.
    Rating 3.48, rDev -3.6%

    Morning, BAs! We had some leftover prime ribeye we needed to use before it went bad, so I had a couple of lunch ideas. Paired prep with some Weihenstephaner.

    [​IMG]


    I went with a steak sandwich smothered in horseradish cheddar on artisan garlic and rosemary sourdough (we'll see if it's good). My partner wanted a steak salad, so I tossed together some mixed greens, red onion, Persian cucumber, cherry tomatoes, EVOO, and fancy-shmancy aged Balsamic vinegar.

    [​IMG]


    She can confirm the salad's good. :wink:

    Cheers!

    Man that first Weihenstephaner went down pretty smooth, so time for another:

    Happy Monday BAs

    Another gorgeous sunny day - supposed to be in the mid-80s here all week, with no rain in sight - has been quite dry for some time now.....

    Picked up this single to try - not bad - but not my favorite marzen thus far, by a stretch

    [​IMG]

    also picked up this massive 5 lb + Belgian Beer Book at the Goodwill this am - 80 cents! It is $67 on Amazon - pretty amazing book! 704 pages!
