What beer are you drinking now? #1446

Crooked Stave \ The Hop & Vine collaboration • Ampersand Volume 3 Chapter 1 - a golden sour botanical ale aged in Ransom Old Tom Gin barrels

 

It's a day-off Wednesday and I'm seeing golf in my immediate future.
But first some left-over pizza and everyone's favorite breakfast drink.

 

I've been lazy with these posts over the lady few days. Here's a snapshot...

 

I've come to two conclusions this morning in my quest to make my FBS experience more interesting:
1) I can't make a blank and tan for shit
2) this is still pretty tasty

Can't help but think of this song every election cycle.

Happy midpoint, advocates!

 

Happy hump day!



The wife's rash looks much better today (the "sap" from cutting elephant ears can cause allergic reaction - who knew?). Perhaps we venture out and explore more of the island this beautiful day. Cheers!

 

Great tune and video - thanks!

 

Midnight Special, a coffee porter from Funky Bow Brewery in Lyman, Maine...

 

Picked this up last night..quite a bit of heat on it, but some again on this will do it wonders..

 

It's the end of my night shift and work week. Yay (my) Friday!

 

13 month old Orval. Just starting to develop some tart and funk, grassy and floral bitterness quite pronounced in the finish.

 

From last night & National Taco Day, Medium Rare NY Strip goat cheese tacos & a Bare Hands Honey Badger DIPA

 

Cheers BA! That is Harpoons Oktoberfest keeping me company while I make a dish later that i think is going to pair wonderfully with Genesee's altbier! Cheers! Today in my travels there was a casualty and it was a beer. Nazdrovie!

 

Good morning from the summit of Deer Mountain! I'm shocked to find cell service up here. This aged Colorado gem that I found collecting dust in the town of Eagle is tasting like heaven at a little over 10,000 feet. I certainly earned it carrying three miles to get here. That's Longs Peak in the background. Enjoy your day folks!

 

Happy Hump Day BA's! Is this week dragging for anyone else ? Anyhoo, let's focus on the positives...it's almost the weekend, we're halfway to Stein Club Sunday, and baseball playoffs start tonight ( let's go Dodgers so we can hear Vin Scully announce the World Series on last time !). All's well and good, but let's check in with the Staff for the Glass of the Day Awards!

GotD: Tell the non-believers that you believe @JamFuel . Tell them, because you just won GotD for your Ice Sculpture bowl ! Cheers and congrats, and way to persevere for the most prestigious award known to mankind!!!
2nd: Sure, we've seen pumpkin beers and glasses already, but @mschrei demonstrated on the next level that fall and more importantly Halloween is upon us with a sweet Jack Skelington mug!
3rd: I wanted all you BA's out there to see another display of love and dedication to glassware. @BWood 's The Bruery glass has clearly (or rather, unclearly ) gotten some serious use!

Honorable mentions go out to @LeperJim for showing up to the party a day late (well...actually 2 days) and a dollar short with a stein that needs a third look, and to @cbcrunch for going to Humphreys, and showing us their amazing pissed off camel pint glasses which are all too fitting for Hump Day.
Cheers everyone, and I will see you all soon!

GotD.
