What beer are you drinking now? #3491

finally - a nice day off -
this guy.....

 

Hm. Upload fail, so recyc pic of the usual N/A morning post. Off to the gym; hopefully a tree limb doesn't kill me on the way. Spring winds have been brutal this year. Thoughts go out to my all friends and peeps in New Mexico dealing with fires, burnt homes, and displaced lives. :l
Cheers!

 

Early start today while watching my stock go up in flames. It's OK, Rye Stouts rule!

Revolution Repo Man



Repo Man - Flying Saucers and Time Machines

Repo Man - A Cosmic Ride

 

Good morning BAs! I took yesterday off as a cleanse day. Lovely 66° walk with dogs this morning; feeding and kitchen chores done, it’s coffee time - DORIS The Destroyer by Hoppin’ Frog:



No canned date, BB date Dec 3, 2024. Poured at 58°. Fast fizzy dark tan head; no cap retention, ring nor lace; no legs. Nose is burnt wood and earthy hops. Entry is very strong burnt wood/chicory; bitter roast; bitter earthy hops; a little chocolate hiding underneath. Medium light body; thin silk feel; moderate minus carbonation; no warmth from 10.5% abv; very dry finish. Overall, too thin, too bitter, too hoppy, too dry…in short, too much and unbalanced; not an enjoyable RIS for me.

3.75 | 3.75 | 3.75| 3.75 | 3.75
Score: 3.75 rDev -11.1%

Hoppin’ Frog has been hit and miss for me lately. Sometimes I really like their beer, other times like today, not so much…Cheers and have a great day y’all!

 

Suarez - Hecto APA

Waiting for @Jack_14 to update us on how he celebrated Virtus' win in the EuroCup final last night. I hope you had something very special.

 

Thank You @Shanex for kicking off today's WBAYDN thread.

Joining @ChicagoJ as we watch the markets keep swirling towards the bottom of the toilet.

 

Started at 635am
Cheers asshats

 

Hows that one? Haven't seen it. The last batch of Florida Weiss was so acidic I couldn't drink it, hoping this may have struck more of a balance.

Hop burn is sloppy brewing. There are several ways to mitigate that shit. No excuse for it. Also, surprised to see Os Cats this morning. Weirdo.

 

Keyboard Warrior. West Coast IPA from Kees (NL).
No canning date on this one. But best before is December 2023.
Cheers





Some Dutch tulips. This was taken last Sunday. Now, after a couple of sunny days, the fields will even be more colorful.

 

Great looking field of tulips. I bet those fields will be looking like a rainbow soon.

 

@Shanex Thanks for the memories. Loved the Bangles.

Drinking Founder's Blushing Monk.

 

I'm joining you and @ChicagoJ. My portfolio is mostly US stocks. No fun going down, but I'm not getting nervous (yet). Might need an extra beer or two In it for the long run myself, buying and holding.

 

I'm with you @Beer-Panda . In it for the long haul, although that haul is getting shorter for me day by day. Eh, the wife will end up with it all, sooner or later.

Anyway, having a little more ABV with this one as I checked again on the Markets.



Prost!

 

Drinking Stella in some bar in Saratoga

 

I bet the bartender that the Stella was from St Louis. It was, free beer for me!

 

The mighty #DIPA from To Øl (Denmark).
It is only 3,99 (€/$) here, prices in Denmark where this beer is from are almost double. I guess it is all one way or the other. Refueling a car costs about an arm and a leg where I live. Good thing I like cycling and walking.
Cheers

 

Refueling any vehicle is hitting all of us around the world really hard. Last time I saw such crazy high fuel prices was back in the early 80s and then again in 2008. To put it bluntly ... This sucks.

 

Good Thursday BA's! I have to burn 10 hours of vacation by 5/19, so 3 hours sounded really good today. White Oak Jai Alai for the start.....

 

Your pool looks soooooo inviting.

 

Somewhat the same here. Investing for my retirement. At least I'm old enough to be a dot-com crash survivor.
Keeping inflation under control is important, but some good beer is in place today.
Cheers

 

To be honest, I don't even know what language they speak in St. louis or Belgium, but the hops in the beer were definitely not saaz

 

Thanks Doc, thankfully we've had a few 50 degree nights, the wife has the solar thermostat at 92 and the water was 90 last weekend. A nice crisp 86 is good with me....cheers!

 

Morning!
MTB ride and now an IPA.



Juice Drop IPA
Breckenridge Brewery

Have a good one.

 

It’s a known fact that if you check the markets daily , they tank and you get Agita. You Should flip back to Days Of Our Lives, now that’s entertainment!
Cheers!

 

Drinking Druthers Golden Rule Blonde



The bank's tulips are in full bloom today

 

The only real agita I get is when I'm choosing my players on DraftKings every day.

 

Tried the new BA version yet?

 

Gorgeous photo!

 

Drinking Guinness at The Parting Glass

 

New?!

Oh fuck just saw . In bombers. ( oh no 12 oz) Heading over to Trade thread now

ISO BA Speedway FT B6k

All day

 

Boulevard Dark Truth impy stout... had this many moons ago, grabbed it to build a 6er at TW for many BA Speedway

 

Got a haircut downtown, now at the pub drinking “Lawn Bloom” a DIPA from Phase Three Brewing:



Idaho 7, Medusa, Simcoe, and Ekuanot hops! A drinkable hazy. Dank and lots of melon. Cheers y’all!

 

That’s the spirit!!!

 

Happy Thirsty Advocates! Today is like a Friday afternoon for me since I'll be off tomorrow. I finally ran across a beer from Fox Farm that didn't quite meet expectations. Welly Best Bitter, which was surprising since this should not be a style too hard to hit. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt though as this beer was just over 3 months old and may have lost some of its subtle qualities. It's not bad, just has very little character across the board. Anyway, fun to try all these beers from FF. Cheers!

 

Drinking Narragansett Lager



Got chased by a tank

 

Damn. Classic "peel the paint off your walls" bitterness. Missed this beer.
