What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #3506

Hey Az, congrats on being clean for two years. I've had some cancer tribulations myself and I'm familiar with the anxiety before you get those results back and the relief/joy when you're told what you want to hear. I've had esophageal cancer that recurred twice and I'm now in the middle of a pancreatic cancer scare. I can both feel your pain and share your joy. Congratulations and here's to many more clean years!!

 

I've got Foster's Ale and Lager in the fridge, but I'll save those for another time. This morning it's Sloop Fresh Pressed Juice Bomb. A little sun in the backround would make it look better



Congrats on the checkup @AzfromOz here's an obscure tune by by Kenny Loggins to celebrate with

 

Also congrats from me on the clean cancer check up, Az

Drinking a tiny La Goudale bottle, and headed to the city taking the suburban train after lunch with a relative of mine hence the different than usual background of this photo:



Cheers…

 

Obscure? It’s the theme to Top Gun!

 

That Fresh Pressed was really good, next up is Beer Tree Brew Juice Land, which is also tasty



I dug deep into the vault and found another Kenny Loggins tune, this time he's playing at a small venue in Philly

 

Fosters lager used to be my favorite beer for a little bit but once I got a horrendous headache I assumed it was from them. I like the ale as well.

 

Born in 92 friend lol.

 

What am I for you? Some boomer.

Edited to add: just got back from the station, when the French railway unions aren’t on strike, the vending machine for tickets is out of order and the station also closed.

Go big or go home? I’m going home.

 

Good day BAs! Thanks, @AzfromOz for starting the thread and congratulations on the negative CA diagnosis! Just don't smoke, drink, or eat and you should stay cancer free, at least in the GI track.
today's New Breakfast Beer is another from @woemad and NBS BIF #15:



A coffee Impy stout. Lacking only coffee. Rating 3.31, rDev -19.1%

 

I think my definition for boomer would jokingly be some crotchety elderly people who just walk around miserable all day.

Idk the definition exactly but millennial is 86-2001? I vaguely remember a time before 9/11 and that kind of is the cutoff since life has been change so drastically from that

 

Busy planning a trip to cross state lines into Kenosha next weekend for one of several beer runs planned over the next two weeks. 3 Sheeps the primary, Central Waters secondary targets, both scarce in Illinois. Down to under a six pack of "drink fresh" beers.

Revolution Repo Man



From the soundtrack of Repo Man, a film I recommend to post Gen-Xers to find out what was life like in the 1980s.

Fear - Let's Have a War

Circle Jerks - When The Shit Hits The Fan

 

That would be me, only have the beer or two to cheer me up.

Without looking it up, early 1980s to 2000 I believe.

I was just 17 during 9/11, all I knew that we were off for difficult times. How wrong I was. It was and still is very difficult. It has always been like that anyway.

 

Cold war and the time before internet: me in a nutshell. Off topic, must post a beer.

 

Bearded Iris Double Homestyle.
Cheers

 

Happy Friday BA's

Dodged the rain bullet for a bit, and Emma and I got in our typical early hike - also got some flowers to plant on some family gravesites for M-Day weekend.....

Found a big format bottle of this, while poking around the cellar.....works for me!



looking forward to nice / warm weather and some sailing this weekend!

 

Three Floyd's Permanent Funeral.



Is there any other kind of funeral? Temporary funeral perhaps? Unless Victor Frankenstein gets ahold of my corpse, I'm pretty sure my funeral will be permanent.

 

Night Shift Whirlpool pale ale and a take-out brisket sandwich for my birthday!

Going to the new Top Gun movie later - haven't been to a theater in 2 years!

Cheers!

 

Good morning BA
I put in 55 hours in four days this week. No work today and celebrating with a morning beer.

Warpigs Astral Queen from a newly released mixed 12 pack. This IIPA is the oldest with a package date 17 days before the box date. No worries, it's an old school version with plenty of bitterness and malt body to help it hold up.


Note: quit talking about your ages...
It's hard enough being the "old man" at work all week. I'll spare you the stories...

Cheers all!

 

Congrats on the good checkup! I know that was a relief. Cheers!

 

Fuck it's been a long morning. Been thinking about this pour the whole time to. Cheers y'all!

Yeti stout aged in whiskey barrels 12.5% - Great Divide

 

Smuttynose Brewing Finestkind IPA at Manchester Airport....flight delayed.....when life give you lemons.......grab a beer!!!!

 

Other Half X Monkish Adios Ghost, cheers!

 

Happy birthday!! Have a great day!

 

Friday before a long weekend. Yay! Comes at a good time for me. Been logging extra hours after normal work hours. Brain's a little mushy at this point. Thank you @colby600 for sneaking this little beauty into your package. It's got a bit of a kick. My personal opinion (who cares right) one of our local breweries Akademia Brewing may have this beat with their Blood Orange Hoprodisiac DIPA. I wished they had canned that puppy. This is quite good though. Great way to start the weekend.

 

A little bit of "home" here in Delaware.



Have a great Friday BAs.

Cheers

 

Belleflower Spring Heart Trail

 

Great North Aleworks Moose Juice IPA, 60 minutes til liftoff ......

 

Man, can't tell you how much I've been itching to bust open this Gin Barrel Age Varonna. (and I pretty much did bust it open, dummy me. It volcanoed all over my table when opened it). I love the idea of the local ingredients in this Farmhouse Ale. Alas, I me thinks they set too high expectation on their label description. Don't get it twisted, this is an excellent Farmhouse Ale, lots of funky, sour flavor. Sour beer lovers will flip for this. But it came up short on barrel aged characteristics. Thanks @colby600! This was a fun beer to drink.







A light jam from Chet

 

Nothing fancy





Have a very nice weekend!

 

I'm drinking Ivin's Famous Lemon Shandy from Conshohocken Brewing. I'm not a big shandy guy, but for what it is, this is pretty good. Lemon and vanilla dominate the taste, which I suppose is supposed to reflect the Ivin's lemon snap cookies that the beer is based on. I rated it 3.80, which is probably my upper limit for a shandy.

 

"This is a tasty beer". Cheers y'all!

Skulls and Femurs American pils 5% - Odd Muse

 

1:00 on a Friday - Holiday Weekend means it’s time to get started!

Seems to me TIPAs are the new DIPAs. This one is right fine.,.

Bet you cats never heard this tune.,. Asteroid Number 4 is Worthy!

 

Great to hear.

Be well!

 

Happy Anniversary
