    Oh and for anyone "bored" out there, on NETFLIX, I highly (highly highly) recommend
    GIRI/HAJI
    - a joint Japanese/BBC production.

    Fantastic story, complicated, great characters... maybe the most enjoyable, mature series I've seen on Netflix yet.

    It was a favorite of @joe1510, the most deranged ex-BA I know.

    Cool, The Remains of the Day is the only Ishiguro I have read. The owner of the local used book store I go to all the time saved a few of his stuff for me to get more into him (he knows my tastes so sometimes when I come in, he just has some ready for me ha). I got Never Let Me Go and When We Were Orphans. Thinking of getting to those next, before his new book comes out. I'll have to look and see if there is a copy of The Unconsoled when I go back.

    Not really fair to put another west coast IPA up after the Alesmith, but Dugges know what they’re doing...

    These guys are bonkers...

    Half Acre is quite a haul from here.. You'll have to let me know when you visit so we can meet up.

    Cheers!

    Hey, I didn't know Blue Star was still open, its probably been over ten years since I went there last. Glad they are still open. Not that they are a favorite brewery or anything, just glad to see some older places still hanging in there.

    Happy Saturday, BAs!

    Always love this thread on the weekends.

    It's crazy how Rev can produce a 17% stout that drinks as smooth as it does. My favorite brewery and maybe the best barrel program in Chicago.

    Cheers, BAs! Enjoy what you're drinking. I have another one or two in the lineup for today.

    Vulnerability vs Composure from Hidden River x Crime & Punishment. Good stuff. Peace be with you, advocates. Also, @JayORear & @Justonemore91, if I was forced to drink one beer for eternity it would be OG Alpine Nelson. However, that's not possible, so my answer is Heady. But wait, there's more...
    Check out this quote, and if you know who it is and what it is referencing, can we say holy sheeee-it!!! Bring it.
    “We will have a couple of lagers, some IPAs, pale ales, stouts and specialty one-offs. I might even try to make a good Nelson Sauvin rye IPA,” quips Pat, who is well known for Nelson, a rye-infused IPA that is wildly popular with hop heads and was widely responsible for the popularization of New Zealand’s now most sought-after varietal.
    Let's go, McIlhenney Brewing!!!

    Have another beer, Dave? Why, thank you. I will. It's the right thing to do...

    FWIW, those would probably be my numbers 2 and 3, with Heady possibly #2. I'm trying to stay calm about Pat's new project, lowered expectations and all that. But if he can recapture that OG Nelson magic, I'll be very happy.
