    Greetings all, almost time to declare TGIF, weather is still moody as most of this year and right now cool and rainy only to have the sky clear in the afternoon supposedly leaving us a nice 80F sun.

    Drinking Lagunitas IPA with a label I’ve never seen before. We just did errands because tomorrow we’re getting a friend over for dinner.

    Cheers!

    Yep! I still like it quite a bit. There were the older labels and bottles of Lagunitas at the supermarket but they think they can fool me into buying them? :grinning:

    Cheers. BTW they have a best before date of April 2024 so very much still hoppy and safe to drink.

    Good day BAs! Thanks @Shanex for starting us off!

    Cool and rainy here - furnace is dead so no central heat available. Fortunately it's just cool inside - That housewrap, additional layer of insulation, and new siding we added a couple of years ago sure help.

    Today's New Breakfast Beer:

    From the local brewpub - they opened several years ago and their beer is just now becoming drinkable enough to buy. Bitter chocolate stout (as opposed to the advertised "milk chocolate", but otherwise not too shabby - rating 3.6, rDev 0% (Added to database, first review)

    TGIF BA's! Thanks @Shanex for #3996.
    Wow! What a beautiful place to have a HF beer.

    Starting with a Jack's Abby Fest Of Both Worlds Festbier on a cloudy/rainy day. The nose is quite similar to the OG but the palate is fruitier, maltier, and less hoppy. It's quite good overall.

    [​IMG]

    Prost! :beers:

    Interesting contrast between this and the Helles.

    Prost!

    Edit: I just realized that our Old Chicago didn't get kegs of any Weihenstephaner beers this year. :slight_frown:

    This is US dated, i.e. May 9 2024. I really like it too but hard to find it fresh.

    It's pouring outside. Festing continues with a Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest Festbier.

    Prost! :beers:

    Happy Friday BA's! Grocery shopping and bike ride complete. It's a nice overcast 78 degrees, perfect for a Bell's Oberon while I wait to go pick up pizza for lunch.
