    pours brilliant clear and amber with a fat head of white foam that lasts well. This beer has a picture postcard appearance. Nose is malty with a touch of sweetness. faint herbal hop at first that never stretches out too far. muted floral. Herbal is sweet and cool but minimal and that shows me some weedy spice!

    Taste is sweetly golden. No heavy malt flavors just lots of bread, crisp and hearty. The soft palate from hops shows you all their delicate herbal and bolder spice. Finishes with a perfect bubble that gives just a tingle. Hop bitterness is gentle and reserved. No alcohol on the palate this drinks like a much lighter beer. Only after about half the glass do I feel a tingle from bitterness or warmth from alcohol. No esters from alcohol just an almost imperceptible lightness in the body, a whisper of diacetyl, no dms.

    Dean Jones has impressed me again and he seems to be earning all fours all the time. Cheers!

    Happy Cinco de Mayo (or as grocery chains call it "guacamole is on sale day")! It was either this or a tequila barrel aged beer, and I don't think I'm ready for one of those this early.

    This beer is magnificently sublime.

    Feliz Viernes, amigos and amigas!

    Tofu scramble with Founders.
    Today we are traveling to Boston to hear our niece perform. She is receiving a MFA in opera from Boston University, and is giving a recital this afternoon.
    Tomorrow the in-laws will drive up from Boston to spend a few days with us. The outlook isn't good for golf, so we might be playing a lot of cards.

    Good Morning BA & Happy Cinco de Mayo. I'm off work for four days, it's raining cats & dogs, and I have a fridge full of Mexican beer. What could go wrong?

    First up, an Indiana beer billed as Mexican-Style lager. I was hoping for something darker. Oh well, I'm only in for a single. Drink Festively Today BA

    Well BA, the best thing about Pachanga is the can art. Moving on... my efforts to secure themed glassware for today at area thrift stores were unsuccessful. So, I raided the cupboards

    Turns out Dos Equis Ambar is a way better beer and this homemade chicken noodle soup is hitting the spot. Cheers

    Buenos días y feliz Cinco de Mayo, los defensores! Espero que todos tengan algunas cosas maravillosas planeadas para el fin de semana. Pero antes de llegar a eso, ¿qué tal si tenemos una Copa de los Premios Día! :wink::grinning:?

    GotD: Siendo el 4 de Mayo estar con ustedes ayer, por supuesto El Personal tuvo que ir con alguna inspiración de Star Wars. ¡Alegrías y congrats a @thebeers para esta taza de café impresionante de Boba Fett :grimacing:!
    2nd: Para finalmente agarrar esta gema sin raíz de Orono Brewing :stuck_out_tongue:, a @mmorris15 .
    3rd: Y finalmente, a @Beer-Panda para esta pequeña mitad Nonic que casi silenciosamente resbaló a través de las grietas.

    Menciones honoríficas salen a @The_Kriek_Freak por el cristal de Maisel de esta curvy (no ganadores de pub), y @dcotom por mostrarnos su colección sin pretensiones :wink:.
    Saludos a todos, y los veré a todos pronto!

    Hopefully not the last day I use my Blues glass this spring! Drink well Advocates, I've got to clean up this mess and get a little sleep before the family gets home.
