    Good day BAs! Off to another warm and humid start to the day - garden is doing well! Mrs. Lizard and I are off to the Big Butler County Fair (PA) today so I can hang with the chickens for an hour or two, followed by lunch, then back home to pull more weeds and pick up apples. Today's New Breakfast Beer is:

    Another of those synergistic brews where the final score is greater than the sum of the parts - the blended taste after two years is a bit bland - the highlight of the brew is the palate - but everything comes together to produce a very good sipper! Rating 3.86, rDev -9.4%

    Good morning everyone Advocates,
    maybe I have already talked about this beer, but every time I gladly take it back because I think it's the perfect example that a great job, doesn't necessarily have to reach very high peaks of complexity.

    MC 77 (ITA) - FLEUR SOFRONIA - Blanche with Hibiscus (5%)


    33 cl bottle (€ 4.50) at the beershop.
    On the label: "Best before: 08/2023".
    As soon as it is uncorked, a sense of freshness is immediately felt, with a fruity and floral note that stands out in the classic perfume imbued with notes of cereal.
    Red color, almost ruby if there were not that veil that opacifies the vivacity of the color.
    Foam that is released abundantly and lightly and that is reduced without ever disappearing.
    In the mouth the usual wonder: the fundamental characteristics of the blanche are found (extra light body, right carbonation, notes of cereal) with the extra touch of hibiscus flowers which, compared to traditional classic spices, gives a freshness and a very pleasant taste. balanced.
    Perhaps some more delicate palate might also notice a slightly sour note.
    In reality I notice a floral note, fresh and delicate, which is well framed in the canons of a traditional blanche, innovating it without distorting it.
    I confirm that for my tastes it remains the best reinterpretation of a blache by an Italian brewery (while also greatly appreciating another one https://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/what-beer-are-you-drinking-now-3533.667582/)

    Howdy all.
    Bit of a recovery NA UA choco-malt thing after a tough, sweaty, uninspired 10 miler with hill repeats and hill tempos. My legs were unhappy after yesterday's weight session, just didn't have the speed today. But got it done.

    Hope your day treats you well
    Cheers!

    Another long day of work. Tomorrow is the last one, so party time after that! Squeezed in a half marathon this morning to Gulf of Lion not too far from Montpellier. It was so hot! Now drinking a Rince Cochon Blonde - first time trying it. Very enjoyable. Cheers!

    Good on you for getting that -ish done on or near the coast. People think that the Med climate means a dry one; until they run along the coast. It's damn hot AND humid at this time of year! So your beer choice of Rince Cochon is quite appropriate as @Shanex will surely know (if you know French well enough to guess the approximation). Probably what you felt like after the run.... :wink:
