Hopslam from Bells

 

RAR x Hop Butcher collaboration on the patio. CO on 03/24 with Nelson, Riwaka, Waimea hopped .Congratulation to Rory only the 4th person ever to win back to back Masters .

 

Have to have two, BA

 

Pretty good and locally sourced is always a plus.

 

Since this seems to be the way things are going...

I just cracked a 2015 Barrel Aged Bigfoot. Low (no) carb, muted barrel, but still a decent enough brew.

 

Ground turkey breast and brown rice, pinto beans burritos with a Chonky.

 

Howdy BAs
New Day from Tree House, listed on the can as an American DIPA

kind of light feeling and creamy tasting, berries and tangerine notes. I can dig it.

A little local love
Johnny Hoy and the Bluefish

 

There ain't much, and the beers are spoken for by the folks who are stuck dealing with my mortal remains, but sure, you can have the rest. I hope you wear 3-4XL clothes.

 

Not about driving or drinking, I was thinking more about your line, "riveting competition," which I thought was perfect under the circumstances. Like your style!

 

More please.

 

Seems Spyglass is on your radar for greatness. Never seen that here but for a collab. Cheers and enjoy!

 

Rob. Back from a trip to Princeton University Art Museum. Now tucking into a re-heated pizza from Conte's. Top ten in NJ.

 

One more for tonight-finishing big. Founders KBS Caramel. Sweet caramel on the nose, roasty bitter coffee and muted sweetness flavor. Touch of barrel way in the background. Well put together brew. Cheers!

 

Sunday sesh with couple of friends....
-Citraquench picked up in NC (no date) was way past its prime-drain pour)
-120 Utopia absolutely amazing
-Epitome, from late Dec, held up very well
-Hoodwinked, a black rye IPA from -Wayward Lane in NY was great
-DFH Palo Santo is just so ridiculously delicious
-King Sue -rated 100!?
-Burial Surf Wax fresh, light and very tasty
-Kittens, which I've had before, was surprisingly better than I recall
Cheers, y'all!

 

Queen of the Coast BA

 

My last pop this weekend: Workman's Friend, a Porter from 2nd Favor Brewing. This may be the best American Porter I've ever drank. I'm blown away and already plan to buy more cans.

Most appropriate tune from Workingman's Dead. Long live Pigpen!



Chambo disapproves. Her favorite tune from that album is Dire Wolf. No surprises there. Cheers and have a great week, everyone.

2023 Pelican Mother Of All Storms. Alcohol is crazy hot up front, almost distracting. Sipping is always the way, but even moreso like this. Any amount of time cellaring these really brings on transmutation into light stout flavors, and a very wet wood barrel presence. I think fresh is best for English type sweetness, but let them sit if you want a cold winter night’s warmer. Fremont B5K, if I had one, would have been the flavor profile I was looking for. That 2017 GI BCBW from @Resistance88 is still in my special beer fridge. I guess I’m being bitchy about great beer options.
