    Thursday! We made it to Thursday, not quite Friday but it does feel like it a bit. Sunny, mild already this mid morning here. Enjoyable and so is Westmalle Tripel:

    It's 43 F out, so felt like another stout. Choose my last bottle of this, not sure how many exist anywhere. It was much better fresh, but still good now.

    Bell's 30th Anniversary Cherry Stout Reserve (5/11/18 12 oz bottle)

    May come back with more later today from beyond the abode.

    Don Cherry, in order of their presence in my life.

    Good day BAs! Thanks @Shanex for getting us started on this yet-another-rainy-morning: 43F/6C. Supposed to be sunny Sat/Sun to I'll attempt to cut the elephant grass that is my yard.

    Today's New Breakfast Beer, thanks once again to @2beerdogs:

    Good morning/day BAs! Stayed up late with my brother last night, slept in this morning. A cellar pull from my basement - Hardywood’s “Bourbon Barrel GBS”, a spiced milk stout aged 12 weeks in bourbon barrels:

    [​IMG]

    Bottled 2021. Poured at 53°. I’ve enjoyed this beer over the years, but cellaring did today’s bottle no favors…sweet caramel malt, ginger, cinnamon, allspice, cola; no bourbon. Drinks and tastes like a flat Coke with pie spices.

    Sunny day forecast, it may reach the 60s…it’s 50° at 10am, perfect weather for a stout or two…Cheers from The Kanawha Valley and have great day y’all!

    Day off work, but I stopped by and picked this up.
    [​IMG]
    Kaliber - Low Alcohol beer
    Damn delicious, and I am quite impressed with it. I will do a full review on here when I pop open another.

    Now I'm home and enjoying this that i picked up on Saturday:
    [​IMG]
    Down And Dirty - American Porter - Whit Wort Brewing - Gibbon, MN - 5% ABV

    Damn delicious beer, and so glad I bought it to take home with me.

    https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/63366/612799/

    3.81/5 rDev 0%
    look: 4.25 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75
    Poured from a crawler filled on 4-29-2023 and consumed on 5-4-2023

    Dark brown pouring from the crawler. When I hold it up to the light, almost nothing shines through, I just get a faint amber look. The head is tan colored and 1 finger. The head retention is decent, and there's a bit of lacing on the glass.
    Deep roasted chocolate nose.
    The flavor is roasted chocolate. The chocolate is more of a dark chocolate rather than sweet, though there's a hint of sweetness here. Decent bitterness.
    The body is quite good and full for a beer that's 5% ABV. Very smooth feeling.
    Delicious beer overall.

    Next up, one of my favorite WV beers and an always buy when I’m home - “Porter”, a coffee porter by Big Timber Brewing Company, just up the river in Elkins, WV:

    [​IMG]

    Roast coffee bitterness and chocolate malt delish. An excellent coffee Porter.

    Lots to do today before tonight’s bottle share in the neighboring town of Dunbar. Cheers!

    Thats an admirable but old school mentality that I wish there was more of. I've been working since Grammer school and one of my first jobs was cleaning offices which is a fancy way of saying I scrubbed a lot of toilets. Owner was in the navy and would yell all day that I didn't mop and clean the navy way.
    Never got mad,learned a lot of valuable skills and work ethic thats still applicable today and allows me to enjoy a job well done despite any other issues.
    Hope you and your co-workers enjoy the rest of the day.
