Morning Hump-day BA's

Some coffee to start things off right

This downtown Cleveland new brewery is making some tasty brews!



cheers peeps!

 

Good morning and good afternoon BAs! Yesterday turned out to be a beautiful day here in NW PA - no rain until after I hit the sack. I had the yard shortened by 1200 - despite it being slightly damp, it only took two hours. Mrs. lizard got some more "stuff" done prior to our up-coming Scotland trip. We had supper with our son and still managed to get some more flowers planted before dark - overall, a fairly productive day! Hopefully, today will be more of the same!

Today's New Breakfast Beer:



I'm extremely pleased with this brew - despite the price point ($ 0.85/fl oz) it is an excellent drinking beer - I could easily swill a few bombers daily!

 

I'm trying to decide between righteously hoppy or richly malty and I may have to toss a coin.

 

Righteously hoppy won out . . .



Hazy light gold color with white cap and lacing.

Aroma of dank hops which is a term I rarely use but it fits here. I also get some hits of resin and something like grapefruit rind. No malt to speak of.

Taste is hop city which isn't surprising at 87 IBU. Don't know if I can taste hop levels that high but if I can this is my limit. Not flavor limit, I rather like it, just as far as my palate will wander in the hop shock department. I am noticing more grapefruit influence as the taste builds (and build it does) toward the finish. Surprisingly little bitterness for this hop level, I've had a much more bitter bite from lower IBU brews, and there seems to be a richness here to the hop intensity.

 

...and it's that time of year again, when a lot of us on the Front Range catch the apricot saison fever. This went really well with our omelet this morning...
Cumbre's Fievre d'Abricot... one of the few saisons I seek out on a regular basis. And the head retention on this was ridiculous...Cheers!


P.S. La Cumbre gets bonus points, too, for using French on their bottle. Makes it extra claaaasssyy...

 

Yesterday. Loaded with the first cut.



Pretty sure it's heavier this year.
Cheers.

 

CONGRATS!!!!
