    These dudes aren't going to understand how that lottery worked. But congratulations and I'm glad you're here. You must have been born about 1950. My dad was born in 1940.

    Oh my God, freakin' poor Marty, man. Bandstand made them do the two songs where he has nothing to do but sit there looking bored. At least he got to be on camera once or twice :sunglasses::rolling_eyes:.

    Things have gone up another notch here. Son#2 is passed out, pissed as he is STILL grounded. Avoidance, a technique I use(d) all the time. Reading the rivieting Anesthesia Systems Safety Guidelines, a real page turner. Mother's MILF next.

    Fantastic Gose as always. Flavors of tart/sour cherry, lemon, lime, green apple, wheat, cracker, coriander, sea salt, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness. Moderate fruity/lactic tart/sourness and lightly spicy/tannic fruit finish. Balanced cherry/lacto acidity, salinity, and grainy wheat creaminess in the mouthfeel. Highly drinkable and refreshing, slightly puckering. One of my all time favorites in the style. I drank over a case last year. Does not feel quite as lactically sour this year, but still fantastic and easier drinking. Grabbed a full case this year, and there is still some more around too.

    Awesome stuff! I can't get enough of this beer. Aromas and flavors of huge peanut butter and red grapes; with brown bread, toasted biscuit, light caramel malt balance; and some mild herbal/peppery noble hops. Light herbal/spicy hop bitterness and slight fruit tartness on the finish. Medium bodied; nice bready/grainy creamy malt mouthfeel; some light sticky hops and chalky PB notes. Lightly increasing bitter/chalky dryness, no astringency. Refreshing as hell, and super flavorful for 5%. Perfectly balanced PB, fruit jam, and biscuity malt sweetness; with just enough earthy hops to balance. They really nailed the sandwich idea of this beer, even better than Odd Sides did with We be Jammin. More malt presence/body.

    Delicious American brown ale as usual. Did not have this in years, before I revisited it a few months ago. Flavors of big caramel, brown sugar, toffee, brown bread, toasted biscuit, nuttiness, and light chocolate/cocoa/coffee malts; with some light-moderate herbal/peppery hops. Light-moderate herbal/spicy hop and powdered cocoa bitterness on the finish. Medium-plus bodied bready/grainy creaminess; with some light chalky roast and hop stickiness. Lightly increasing bitter/roasted dryness. Super drinkable. Spot on to style. Will keep grabbing this more often now.

    Awesome IPA! Finishing off the 4 pack. Great head retention and lacing on the glass. Aromas and flavors of big tangerine, grapefruit, peach, apricot, pineapple, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, guava, berry, lemon/orange zest, and light pepper/pine hops; with moderate honey, lightly toasted biscuit malts; and herbal, floral, grassy hop earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body. Balanced bready/grainy creaminess and hop stickiness in the mouthfeel. Slight resins/rinds and increasing dryness. No hop astringency. Refreshingly drinkable with the mellowed out bitterness. This tastes quite close to being a NEIPA to me. Super vibrant, dank, and juicy hops; balanced malts and no residual sweetness. I love Citra and Mosaic hops.

    That one is "click, click, click" and then sign language even I can't understand.

    I have a Higher Math in the cellar. I didn't think it was bad fresh. I considered pulling it out for Thanksgiving, but chose other options. Maybe if the Badgers lose tomorrow, I will pull it out and mix it with Jagermeister to ensure my brain cannot remember the experience, similar to last year's Big Ten Championship Game complete disaster.

    Nothing amazing but nice to switch it up a little. Im not a beer expert but i'd say it tastes like a regular IPA with maybe a slight toasty flavor.

    Add a couple cans of tomato sauce and diced tomatoes and you've got a really nice chili!

    Do it! It's worth it.

    18th Street/Mikkeller San Diego Trub Wizard DIPA. This is Citra, Mosaic, and Galaxy with honey. Think this one could use some time to sit in the can imo. Big hop flavors, but needs some time to round out the "green" hop flavors that are dominating the beer right now. Super hazy and thick. Cheers!

    It works as well as an Alex Hornibrook touchdown pass, after a 98-yard run by Jonathan Taylor.
