What beer are you drinking now? #2996

Captain Lou Albano set the braided beard trend many moons ago. Disturbing in the image is the gremlin atop your frig pilfering booze

 

Been saving this one. Very nice....but I'm not sure it is $0.83/ounce nice, especially when compared to the enjoyment I get out of some other barrel-aged offerings that are only $0.50 per ounce. However, the Murph-dog likes to play with the box...so there's that to consider.

 

Thanks! I love trem bars, it's part of the charm of a strat imho. I don't typically use them to do dive bombs, the reality is that that's not what they were designed for.

I use them mainly for accents although I don't rule out an occasional dive bomb if I feel it. Dive bombs are not a particularly melodic application. Cheers!!!

 

Sixpoint Party Favors at The Lodge....

 

Man I had not heard about that. Some of my favorite shelf beers are from them. I really dig that beer. Really sad for his family.

 

Quick little brewery tour to start off 2021

Brewing Tree Milk stout
Rockbridge Winery/Brewery Black IPA

 

How is it going BAs!

Tonight I'm going with an INEIPA from Tripping Animals...

Second Trip Around The Sun. Hopped with Galaxy, Citra and Lotus.



Very nice beer!



Cheers!

 

Saint Errant Tilt-A-Whirl TIPA (Nelson Sauvin, Citra, Motueka). These guys have been hit or miss since they’ve switched locations to brew, but I think this beer shows they have hit their stride again. A Nelson bomb that I know @TheIPAHunter would be proud of.

Intense and aggressively hopped. Juicy, but still has a nice dryness and bitterness on the finish. White grape skin and juice, earthiness, hop spice, slight orange creamsicle, ripe tangerine, orange candy, lemon zest, lime sherbet, mango skin, sweet floral, yellow grapefruit, fresh cut grass, and pine resin. Smooth for the 8.7%. Super soft and creamy feel. Damn. One of the better hazies I’ve had out of the Chicagoland area in recent memory.


RIP

 

Agreed!

 

Marsh Island

 

Hooray Pils!



Cheers!!

 

Impulse Control, an IPA from 3 Sheeps featuring African Queen Hops.

 

First beer of the year was an Amber slammed from the can after putting away all the holiday accoutrements.

 

Lagunitas Sucks

I haven't had this in some years, and I don't remember enjoying it this much. Cheers, people, and happy Saturday!

 

Second beer of the year. I really had no interest in NB beers after the massive disappointment that is Fat Tire, but I'm glad I tried this and Voodoo Ranger.

Upland Brewing Co. -- Bad Elmer (American porter)



3.96/5 rDev +10.3%
look: 4.25 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Deep, dark brown color, clear as much as can be gleaned; thick and frothy light khaki head; sticky rings and fingers of lacing cling to the glass. Robust roasted grain note on the nose; cocoa. Rich flavors of cocoa and grain char; coffee-like; moderate grain sweetness offset with a bracing bitterness. Heavy body; silky and rich on the palate; big residual sugar body tempered with a mild bit of dryness.

It's been at least 12 years since I last tried this beer on tap at the brewer. I can't say I remember the tasting experience from that far back, but this can experience is pretty tasty and enjoyable. It is straight-forward, no nonsense -- a real pleasure to drink.

Hippie Chick while waiting on dinner ..

 

Good evening everyone SN pale ale

 

A big thank you to @jrc1093 for parting with this tasty beverage! This is awesome! Barrel presence is there but this is a creamy, soft, and easy-drinker!! Hope they continue the barrel aged program in to 2021

 

Condolences.

 

My last VooDoo Ranger. Hoppy First Saturday 2021.

 

TG Fire, Skulls & Money, outside at The Lodge.

 

Opening the evening with a Sun King Wee-Mac. Decent opener, nothing to distract from next act. Waiting on wings...

 

Awesome

 

This one is for @JayORear. Another top drawer double by New Trail, off the charts juice with perfect resin and drying bitterness. Fuckin A solid. $15/4 locally, this is insane value. In comparison to Goggles, this is a hair thinner, but never thin. Its a toss up which is better depending on which hops you prefer. Already looking forward to Snow Angel as per their FB page

 

I am drinking Jackie O's Brown Ale out of Athens, Ohio.

 

Another big thanks to @jrc1093 ! This one is a little too smokey for my palate but still am enjoying these fella! Happy Saturday Ba!!

Weihenstephaner Kellerbier. Having some whilst I do some chores. Cheers!

Ran some errands today and finally decided to upgrade my old iPhone 6 to a 12 mini. Holy moly the clarity!! Stopped by Kane which had absolutely no line. Picked up their latest ipa, Where’s the Afterparty.

 

Parish Decade One clocking in at 14%. Nice blend of vanilla, bourbon and chocolate.
