Yesterday, in WBAYDN #1103, @WesMantooth said, and I quote ...
"Seriously, for those who have not received anything from the man you would swear he doesn't like you the way he wraps shit up."
...
For the record, I just had to say seriously, Corey. I don't know what you're talking about.

 

Have to drink before turns in 2 days!

 

Hang in there, hope your day gets better!

Great pic, btw!

 

Wow! Where have you been? Welcome back to the virtual bar.

 

Sorry your BA'ed IPA experience with this beer was less than stellar.....have not had too many barrel aged IPA's that were all that memorable myself .....and hey, you live in the Windy City, you were expecting no winds??

 

Enjoying the last bottle of an AG home brewed October fest
Cheers all

 

You may be having a bad day, but that photo is awesome. Cheers to better days!

 

Let me second this ... Great to see you here again!

 

Opening today with an outstanding DuClaw Dirty Little Freak (4.45). This is a coconut lovers dream.

 

I don't think BA IPAs have to be a fail--I like Naughty Temple and I liked Doom. There are good ones out there, this just isn't one of them. I also did not like the thick honey mouthfeel. Felt like an attempt at grown-up cough syrup!

 

Drinking Bells Two Hearted Ale, Hill Farmstead keg kicked.



Listening to The Cure on the sound system

 

Just spent an hour outside at my son's school giving out goodies for their Trunk or Treat/costume parade. Supposed to be 70s in Chicago area for the start of November, but let's barely reach 40 for all the outdoor Halloween stuff. Good thing I have something to warm me up when I got home.

 

Another beer which stands as an example of what used to be called Burton Ale - Fuller's 1845 (6.3%). Sweet, fruity, with hints of cheerfully muted spice. A great example of the amazing things you can do with Maris Otter malt and Goldings hops.

 

Did you try the dark mild? One of my absolute favourite styles that I always feel shines on cask but not in bottle or can. I've never had any kegged versions (it's really unpopular here in the UK) but as long as it's keg-conditioned it could be pretty good.

 

My wife swears I never do any work. I dont know why she would think that. Trying to get stuff wrapped up in time for trick or treat. Down to one hobgoblin now, which stinks become I don't get to eat as much

 

This is one fine beer from Terrapin Beer Co...........Cheers !

 

Ideal vessel or no, I will always take a free pint glass especially when branded with one of my favorite beers



First of the season, and just as good as I remember.



Cheers!

 

Samuel Adams Octoberfest after a long week of work. One of my customers gave me a free case of this on Wednesday. It's better than I remember but it's not my favorite style either. The SN one is a lot better, I can tell ya that.

This is going down just fine, however.
