What Beer Are You Drinking Now? #4367

Now having this fresh hop DIPA from Mikerphone. These guys seem to one of the few local breweries which reliably release fresh hop IPAs year to year. And they usually do a nice job as well. So forget the rest of yous then.

Cheers all.

 

The last of these. I refer to it as “Mango Nightmare”. It’s got a very perfumey aroma and flavor.

It's been a great beer night so far. Every beer I've had has been fantastic in its own way -maybe just one of those nights? Up until now when I opened this one - Best of the night! First I was expecting hazy. Nope this is pale yellow, crystal clear. Nose is pretty floral, ripe fruit, lemon. For the color it has a perfect malt base to complement the juicy hops. Earthy from Simcoe. Finishes dry and clean, snappy. This is probably a like or hate beer. It's almost an "imperial IPL" maybe because I expected hazy I'm more impressed? Feels Southern Cali style ipa..

 

I may need you to send me some of that, Russ (with delicious MT bounty in return, of course)- first time in 15 years that I've come up short on the annual Black Butte anniversary brew..

 

How is it? They had that at my store today?

 

Oregon plays Ohio State next week. Interesting. Saturday night will bring college football and MLB to the table. I need a bigger TV. Real talk. Back 35 years ago when all the good bowl games were played on New Years Day, I went to a friends house who had 3 tvs going at once because it was OTA at the time. Cheers!

 

Congrats, Dave, did not know you were a Mets fan. Probably a good thing, I may have lost another bet . I will be cheering for them against the Phillies... but that game last night will sting for a while–and Alonso’s scream will live forever in my nightmares.

 

I figured if I'm gonna get in on the '24 barleywine/stout BIF, I should probably give in and crack open the delicious remainders from last year..

Cheers!

 

Super fun night at Golden Isles Brewing. Tegan did a wine tasting/lecture, and the beer nerds (4 of us) well, shared beers…



Safely home now, drinking a Torpedo on the balcony…Tomorrow is our group’s monthly beer share, and I know several folks who will be absent because of Hurricane Helene…Cheers y’all!

 

To be frank, I would not have bet on the Mets though I wanted them to win. Milwaukee seemed so solid in all aspects. It seems in baseball at least as much as other sports, it pays to get on a roll at the correct time. The Guardians face a red hot Detroit team, so we’ll see what happens there.

 

Now enjoying a Narrow Gauge/The Wine Cheese Place Theodore Rex Hazy Imperial IPA.

Three out of four playoff teams from the AL Central. My goodness, who'da thought. Maybe the White Sox took one for the division this year.

 

He must like it, he is a repeat offender on that one

Haven't seen one here this year, so sad/dumb

 

cheers

 

Nice. While I’m handing out flowers, kudos to your Vikings, they look to be the best team in NFC at the moment. At least there will be a rematch in December. Cheers to another pool season, Coaster!
