    Happy Saturday, BAers.
    Is it just me, or would a Keurig style device that involves Kcups turning into actual beer be the greatest invention ever?

    Happy Saturday, BAs.
    Today is a day for working on my Continuing Medical Education, which will consist of reading articles and taking written tests. I am fortifying myself with a sandwich and some Epiphany.

    Good Morning BA, Happy Saturday!

    My go-to fall gose. Juicy blood orange, tart lemon/lime fruitiness, and moderate salinity/spice/acidity on the finish; with light wheat/crackery malts. Balanced sweet/tart finish. Very crisp and drinkable. Down to the last of the six pack, will probably buy one more while it’s still around. However, with the DESTIHL gose now widely available to me, I may go that route as well. Still waiting for Victory Kirsch gose in the spring haha.

    One of my main go-to pumpkin ales this year, still got a couple more of them to clear out. Big robust flavors of pumpkin, brown sugar, toast, brown bread, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, caramel, and herbal spice earthiness; with some raisiny dark fruit notes in the back. Balanced herbal spicy bitterness against the malt sweetness. Definitely my favorite as far as darker/sweeter/malty Pumpkin ales go. Lots of complexity going on. Super smooth for the ABV.

    Still incredible! Taste of huge grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, papaya, mango, lemon zest, orange peel/rind, and pine; with light-moderate honey/bready maltiness and herbal/floral/grassy dank hop earthiness. Good amount of pine/rind/herbal bitterness; with a very smooth and sticky/resinous mouthfeel with a touch of bready malt creaminess. Nice moderate dryness from sticky bitterness; with no cloying or astringency from hops at all. Very smooth with minimal warming for the ABV. Glad to have been able to get a 4 pack this year, after visiting ND/MN a few weeks ago. Just have 1 can left now.

    2 year old Blaecorn, hell yea shelf beer. Just bought this a few weeks ago. This was absolutely amazing. Flavors of huge dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toasted dark bread, molasses, smoke, light licorice/raisin, and a bit of charred malt complexity. Bittersweet balanced creamy/silky full bodied finish; with a slight touch of chalky roast and slickness in the mouthfeel. Very smooth for 12.5% with minimal alcohol warming and zero booziness on the finish. As usual with any Russian Imperial stout; this has mellowed out on the heavy hop bitterness absolutely beautifully, still leaving a roasted bittersweet finish with more noticeable notes of dark fruits/molasses than when I reviewed it @ 6 months old. Incredible!

    I believe such a device exists as I've seen it advertised on this site. Search for PicoBrew.

    Good morning BAs. I'm already oblivious, err, I meant I'm having some Griffin Claw OB.LIV.I.OUS. This is a BBA wheat wine. Not something I have often but it's a decent brew.

    Any questions about beer, I know this forum is the ideal place to go.
    The stuff they have is more big machines where you add ingredients. What I'm saying is it would be fascinating to have an actual KCup beer maker. That and having it cost less than two grand.
