    Thanks for your shout out yesterday @Mickeyharris ! Led Zeppelin was my favorite band growing up. Love your additional shoutouts as I catch up with the thread, including @LarryV 's Cardinal which always reminds me of my Grandmother and her love of that bird in particular. Also loved seeing @mactrail 's Hopleaf glass in the early Sunday morning hours.

    Home Opener pushed back until tomorrow. Will try for a short outing if there is a break at all in the rain. Having this as a nightcap.

    Good morning Jason!

    Quite the surprise for me this morning and have found Ballast Point, Grunion Pale Ale in a rather out of town, small, low budget supermarket.

    Pretty good! San Diego representatives say hi! @RaulMondesi

    Baileys chocolate are a nice bonus, too.

    Cheers!

    A pint and a pot of cockles! Nice treat at the end of a coastal walk.

    Moonlite by Hattie Browns at one of my favourite pubs, the Square and Compass.

    Good day BAs! Thanks @ChicagoJ for opening the bar!

    No New Breakfast Beer today, but instead a mediocre Barleywine which is growing on me:

    Day two of the summer rain - looks good for this year's algae crop; not so good for my peppers.

    As much as I would love another Moonlite, it's nice to try new beers.

    Liquid Hoptimisum by Glastonbury Ales.

    Should of had another Moonlite...

    Hello!
    Nah, not fresh to any standards and forgot to mention the BBD was almost expired, late April 2026 hence not relatively fresh at all. Still, a beer with potential.

    Happy Thursday BAs

    The torrential rains from yesterday are finally over - the sun supposed to come out and be upper 70s this afternoon - that sounds great to me!

    Cheers!

    All Aboard! So many brews to choo choo choose. It's curious how a handful of my friends are all doing long-distance travelling this month give or take a week. Portugal, Nebraska, Wales. Yes, Bob will be doing some Wale Watching. :joy: I am clearly not nearly baked enough so on with the squelch.
    A nice simple American Ale here: Point Green Circle Pale
    [​IMG]
    Pretty sure I bought Point Beer (not this beer) for $9.99 per case returnables back in the early 1990s.
    Freezing rain here at the moment. Bone chilling dampness to the core. :beers::fire::beers:
