    Time to start the day. Pour a bit lighter after spilling some with the funky glass shape and outside moisture. Wasn't a big fan of these cans, but this pour seemed better than the first I rated.

    Hope you have a beer spill free Monday!

    Good day BAs! Another rainy morning here in the tundra north of I-80 and south of Lake Erie. Looks like all I'll be growing in my garden this year again is algae. Today's New Breakfast Beer:

    Not bad, but a little weak in the maple department - 3.92.

    Sad Monday continues as window and frame need to be replaced in basement due to heavy storms yesterday (thankfully beer cellar not harmed), and other general outside cleanup.

    Adding to the spilled beer / storm tragedies is the fact I am drinking my final Founder 4 Giants pour. Not as fresh 9 weeks in, but still a solid pour. I will definitely be on the lookout for these in the future!

    My one sentence review of this beer is "This is what happens when you mix 50% Pliny and 50% Hopslam." It's that LARRRGE, or shall we say GIANT!

    Have a safe and dry (water, not beer) Monday!!!

    I just got a message from my parents who live back in Illinois and they have water issues in basement also. They are busy cleaning up mess from all the heavy rain, etc. Sounds like a hell of a storm over the past days there.
    Cheers and stay dry.

    Have a good Monday. Had a good sleep, but didn't go to bed until 430AM. I was up watching technology and cooking videos all night. I am planning on building a new gaming rig within the next couple years. So I have all the information I need to make a world class setup. Still see no reason to upgrade to 4K or anything, 1080p always has been adequate :thinking_face:

    Mikkeller SD Read The Room. Excellent NEDIPA. Lasting rocky head retention/thick foamy lacing. Aromas and flavors of big pineapple, tangerine, red grapefruit, lemon, peach, mango, honeydew melon, berries, citrus peel/rind, wood, mint, peppercorn, pine hops; with moderate wheat, cracker toasted bread malts; and herbal/floral/grassy hop earthiness. Moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; balanced bready/grainy malts and sticky/resinous/rindy hops in the mouthfeel. Moderate increasing resin dryness; no lingering hop astringency. Very smooth, not overly aggressive, minimal warming 7.9% or lingering hop burn after the finish. Awesome Sultana(formerly Denali) hop profile. Very vibrant, juicy, dank, and earthy hops; with a great clean wheat/oat/malt backbone. Minimal residual sweetness with lingering resin dryness. No complaints! They certainly have done many better NEIPAs in the past, but this still is well made.

    I can't believe I had not listened to this band in what feels like a year. One of my favorite albums of all time!

    Love that beer, and haven't seen a new batch since that March bottling. Hoping it wasn't a one-and-done.

    Goose Island Next Coast IPA. Just finishing Justin Cronin's House of Mirrors. Too bad Fox messed up it's television serialization; it has it's moments. Definitely liked that some of the main action is set in my hometown, New York City, albeit a post-apocalyptic version:



    Stay Safe, but Enjoy Life. Sláinte, mo Chairde!
