What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #4284

Great match!



Cheers!

 

What's crafted in New Glarus, gets consumed in Illinois. So it is written, so shall it be done.

 

Kenwood Original
4.6% abv

I had to look up what this actually is so it’s classified for those who care, as a light lager. And it’s very light but it’s also dry and hoppy so much so that I thought it was a golden ale of sorts. I’ve been seeing this in the city (Philly) for a couple years and it seems to have made its way to Jersey. If you like Founders Solid Gold then you’d like this. I personally just thought it was ok.

cheers

 

I concur with @tasterschoice62 's assessment of ribs, and criticism of the boiling / fall off the bone "rib jello" style known at several places in Chicago. I avoid pork these days, but there are still a few places which prepare beer ribs the proper way here. Really love South Carolina Mustard Vinegar sauce best. Sweet BBQ sauce is like Ranch dressing to me, can't/won't eat it.

Pulled a winner today for New Beer Weekend #208 (post link). Full review linked below.

Pipeworks Night Sun

4.33/5 rDev +7.2%
look: 4.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25



Light in ABV, strong in flavor. Nicely balance, bursting with dark roast malt, nice dark / milk chocolate flavors. Delivers, reminds me a lot of Kalamazoo Stout / Deschutes Obsidian Stout, two great stouts in my book.

No black cold sun here, not sure if I'll remain a shut in until Wednesday after going out shortly for food and lunch.

 

Off Color - Beer for Lounging APA

At the Publican Tavern in O'Hare

 

Happy Saturday BAs

Another very warm and humid day here - for those who have never tried a "pickle" beer - you should! Especially refreshing on a warm day...with home made garlic dills!



nice cardinal flower on this mornings walk

 

Trying the Grolsch summer blonde.
It is a bit Belgian Style White beer actually, with wheat and some bitter orange notes.
Very Decent

 

Thanks again @The_Kriek_Freak. This is great.

 

The water is filtered as it runs through sandstone. It comes out soft and clean.

 

I’ll have to snag some Bells next time. In reference to Ba, I’ve been definitely not drinking as much as I used to and work keeps me so busy finally a big boy job haha and the young one of course. Tend to overshare been trying to not do that as well lol

not even sure Solid Gold is around but yea I could not call Kenwood an AAL at all but it does seem like a bridge to there.

grabbed a bunch of new beers yesterday will post up later on.

never had another dark beer from bells besides their normal stout with the brewers licorice I’ll be on the look out

 

Wellington County Brewing Helles

A pretty solid Helles.

It's still pretty humid here so it's hard to shoot anything outside without lots of condensation haze.

 

Osmeterium IPA. At Cocoon Brewing. It is going to be a hot day.

Flight of mostly BA drinks at the mini-Luau at Mortalis Buffalo!

Angry Chair and the Mortalis Nyx are both double barrel! The Nyx bottles can only be had if you bought a VIP ticket for the full luau in Rochester.
