    Happy hump day.

    Just heard of a Tsunami warning all over the Pacific following a massive earthquake in far east Russia.

    Drinking De Velden IPA from Brasserie La Goudale:

    Good morning, Shanex, and all the BA folks across the world! Here is a California IPA called "Steve & Norby Go To Brew Castle" from Altamont Beer Works. Party on, Wayne!

    Aromatic with grapes and apricot and a whiff of pine. I wouldn't call it dank, but what would the stoners know? It's more of an orange flavor with some tangerine peel. Moderately bitter but in keeping with the fruity and flavorful theme. Overall this is a really mellow and highly drinkable hoppy brew.

    Yes, friends in Hawaii are concerned, but hopefully there won’t be damage like the last one. Looking forward to the windows open and no AC tomorrow night, but will take advantage of one more night clearing another BA selection from my stash.

    tis a beautiful thing,
    to have a beer that tastes
    like a dream
    beyond certain beauty
    that could be had,
    it’s just something so glorious
    with no need to brag
    to just fill up your glass
    with your choice of liquid
    can be such a merry thing
    so cheers to you, BA
    now let’s crush these
    fucking things.

    Well, shit. I thought I had this whole Imgur thing worked out. But I guess not. Anyway, I’m having a tallboy of Sierra Nevada.

    Club Raul is still open:

    Just got to Fukuoka and yet again I arrive here while a natural disaster is in progress. Hopefully not too many folks will be affected.

    Long trip so quenching my thirst with a Sapporo in the dark alleys behind Hakata station.

    Happy Wednesday ba. Last day, of this current heat-wave, here on the island. Day off, w/ not much to do, so up and at it.

    Seven, 7th anniversary dipa, Sand City. Possible last call on this as their 8th anniversary should be out this week. Not my favorite hop profile but it drinks really well,

    Caught a pretty nice size catfish this morning which has rejuvenated the kids interest in fishing. I'm celebrating my catch with a Fine Pilsner. Cheers!
    Will try to post pics later...

    A fabulous Wednesday for a brew. Smoky air here from fires up North. Totally sux. Smells of a swamp grass fire. Gotta power right thru with a brew! Dammit. Going with this lil' beast of a beer that has one reviewer saying this: "Tastes like an old leather shoe filled to the tongue with hops, malt, rye, booze, tobacco, and leather."
    So, I'm hoppin' on board. Might as well go for it head first and this was a IP trade with @GreenBayBA if my memory serves me correctly. Thanks Micah! Cheers BAs!!

    A little hair of the dog this morning. Not the same one that bit me, but should be good enough. :wink:

    Right along here ba. Wavetable, ipa, Grimm. (Citra. Strata, mosaic).
    Had this in Queens, the other week, and despite its, 11/24 canning, it drank just fine. So this is the best I could find locally, cold stored, and again it drinks just as well,

    Happy Humid and hot Wednesday, and yes, looking forward to the end of this heat wave, starting Thursday - cooler temps in the upper 70's and 50s at night sounds perfect to me....need to finish up some canoe / boat varnish work once it gets cooler!

    Great local Festbier - excellent!

    clearing pics off my phone and came across this amazing shot - I took in the Cuyahoga Valley Nat'l Park close by - Buttermilk Falls (at the top)

    Can't wait for fall to get here!

    When I’m asked about some of my favorite American breweries, I can never forget about Central Waters. They really made an impression on me…

    BeerloserLI is always worth quoting, player. :wink:

    CW beers are truly something. I see their beers frequently in my usual stores. They just got a new customer :sunglasses:
    I will visit the brewery. Same with Wooly Pig. Too bad they're so far from me...but I'll get there.
