    Full review linked above, full New Beer Weekend #274 linked here. My take, this is a lemonheads malt flavored beverage, not a lager.

    At least the music is jumping with the WDCB overnight set. Chicago's very own Gil Scott-Heron as poignant today as back in 1981.

    G'day all!

    I'm sipping on this very tasty Oktoberfest from Heater Allen. In other news, the *********s are flying.

    Prost!

    Good day BAs! Thanks @ChicagoJ for opening the bar - great music selection - I listened to the whole thing - more than a bit prophetic.

    Today's New Breakfast beer:

    [​IMG]

    Phantasm from Adroit Theory. Four-pack of 16 fl oz cans purchased from Adroit Theory on-line, Purcellville, VA, ordered 25/08/25 received 16/10/25 - $34.66 (Including shipping!)/$ 0.542/fl oz. Reviewed 18/10/25, review 3613.
    Final impression and summation: 4 (After deducting 0.25 point for an undated container) Uncredited art work. Very mild interpretation of the style – very easy drinking. Fruit Fly approved.
    Rating 4.25, rDev +1.9%

    The current fruit fly drinking buddy is possibly a F1 from my previous drinking bud - back in my undergrad days, I bred about a million of the wingless variety in my first genetics class. When the class was finished, rather than killing them I released them outside the science building - Hop free my babies! They helped me in class so the least I could do was give them their freedom.

    I attended several GBBFs, back in the old days when it was at Earl's Court - easy underground ride from our hotel. Mrs. Lizard poured me on more than one train.
