    Greetings all, have a great Sunday!

    Castelain IPA, a 500ml can at 6,5% ABV.
    A pretty standard IPA using cascade, challenger and Magnum hops. Mildly bitter and tasty. Good one.

    I haven’t shared a sketch in a bit, so this is a castle:

    Good day BAs! Thanks @Shanex for starting today's thread!

    A foggy morn - but all my zukes, peppers, and tomatoes are off to great starts - should be eating fresh zukes next week. Apples aren't doing too shabbily either. Today's New Breakfast beer however...

    Final Impression and summation: 3.25 IMO, this is a failed batch they tried to salvage by marketing it as a fruited sour. At $3/can, it's still overpriced.

    [​IMG] Great day yesterday. Heading over to Traverse City Michigan tonight. Spending a few days, pretty excited for that part. Cheers all and this is an old school DIPA.

    Not sure which year or decade I last had this, but never rated until today. It is terrible, though perhaps I had a bad batch so would give another try down the road draft.

    Full review linked above, New Beer Sunday #1011 link here, AAL Tasting Thread Link here. Bottom line, rubbing alcohol and corn syrup the primary takeaways, though is becoming at least somewhat drinkable as this warms.

    I need another new beer to redeem this Sunday, as this experience is sadder than the average Morrissey song.

    Good Sunday BA's! Thanks @Shanex for opening the bar. Nice sketch.
    Glad to see a Godspeed brew here. Their Czech style stuff is amazing.
