    And now, after some errands, the first beer with a rating under 3.0 I have willingly purchased to rate/review (though probably not this can):

    Orange-bronze with a fruity sweet flavor that isn’t like a lactose fruit-forward NEIPA, for sure. Cleans up with a little countering bitterness, at least.

    Well, I won’t be bidding rid of this in 2020, but shortly into the new year I will be rid of it, hopefully for good. So I got that going for me.

    Drinking Celebration Ale. I've got one bottle from each 9/25, 10/26 and 11/4
    no surprises 9/25 has a distinctly less hoppy more malt flavor. 10/26 and 11/4
    are virtually indistinguishable and full of hop aroma and flavor. Would gladly
    drink another twelve of the 9/25.

    Was as busy this morning as a one legged man in an ass kicking contest, so a little later getting started than I hoped.

    Starting off with St. Feuillien Cuvée de Noel. Last one of these until next year.

    Canada’s Jim Cuddy doing a song called New Year’s Eve. Seems appropriate. Cheers. [​IMG]

    This time around, it's a Rogue 6 Hop IPA. It's good, but I was expecting better from Rogue. There's very muted citrus, honey & floral notes on the nose and those follow through a little stronger on the palate. Moving on from American IPAs to NEIPAs next.

    Battery Steele Flume DIPA. My very first beer from Battery Steele. Last time I checked they were from Portland, Maine but this can says that it was brewed in Clifton Park, NY. Are these beers contract-brewed, perhaps by SingleCut, who happens to have a facility in the area? Does anyone know? I could not find any info online or elsewhere. Thanks in advance

    I will be worried if so. That is an amazing NEDIPA and I hope they can brew it the right way.

    Whoa, that first beer disappeared like there was a hole in the glass.

    Moving on to this magnificent Barleywine from New Zealand. It’s my last one and the beer’s retired. So, there you have it.

    Hamilton, Ontario based Whitehorse doing Nighthawks.

    Oh, the Ontario Finance Minister who I mentioned regarding his out of country vacation while the rest of us are in lockdown has resigned. I’m not psychic, but here’s[​IMG] how I see the conversation with the Premier of Ontario playing out. “Resign or I’ll fire you publicly.” Cheers.
