    Was craving, and had, a couple 60 Minutes at lunch then for dinner at home had a couple Loose Cannons. Had no idea it was IPA day or was such a thing. Ironic? Coincidence?

    What a coincidence! I had no idea there was an IPA day and today I got HT and PTE in a trade! And I've never had either! Time for me to get started

    For IPA day:

    I reviewed a Black IPA, which was awesome.

    Then some regular stuff:

    Super fresh 7/23 Lagunitas
    [​IMG]

    7/1 Centennial. My go to beer year round
    [​IMG]

    5/14 Burton Baton. This stuff is great, super well balanced with great hop/malt/oak complexity. Would like to see what big age does to this now though. I can probably land year old 4 packs around here I bet. I may do so.

    Celebrated this fine holiday to the best of my abilities. Time to sleep it off for a day or two.

    I celebrated for the past week, even bottled my IPA home brew. I hope that qualifies me as a celebrant.
