    Officially weekend has started. A storm is battering Ireland, parts of England and us too. The storm that’ll prevent me from a short ride to the supermarket for a fine brew isn’t born yet so I’m drinking Trappistes Rochefort 10 on a very gloomy morning:

    Needless to say, I didn’t put any Bill Withers song in my car:

    And happy weekend to you @Shanex !

    Here is Crop Top German Style Pilsner from Fast Fashion Brewing in Seattle, brewed with Hallertau Mittelfrüh, Tettnanger, and Hersbrucker hops.

    Pleasant fruity aroma with melon and leather. Flavors of lime with more green melon and peach. Some malt flavors and mild sweetness. Tangy finish and just a slight bitterness. Overall this is a tasty and interesting hoppy brew and the hops are used with restraint. Aromatic and then sudsy on the tongue. I'm glad I ignored my usual aversion to Fast Fashion.

    Having a seasonal beer in seasonal weather. Bucketing rain, howling winds, perfect for beer and music.

    Catching up on reviews. Why is drinking beer much faster than typing about it?

    Good day BAs! Thanks @Shanex for opening the bar!

    Looks like another beautiful fall day here on the tundra of NW PA - My gong bao and birdseye peppers are still producing, but next year they'll be started earlier so I get a bigger crop - this year was a bust for tomatoes, zucchini, and apples (I found about a dozen from two trees - apparently this getting old crap effects the apple trees as well as me). Since we normally can applesauce, tomato sauce, zucchini relish, and haul apples and homemade applesauce to my brother's home in TX, this fall will be cooler in the kitchen.

    Today's New Breakfast Beer:

    [​IMG]

    No Stout Left Behind from Transient Artisan. 16 fl oz can picked up at Horrocks, Grand Rapids, MI, 23/08/25 - $ 5.18 (including tax and deposit)/$ 0.324/fl oz. Reviewed 04/10/25, review 3603.
    Final impression and summation: 3.75 (After deducting 0.25 point for an undated container) Uncredited art work. The transitory bourbon taste was unexpected and welcome, providing a fortuitous lift to what is an otherwise average stout. Hopefully the sweetness of this “Blended Imperial Cream Stout” doesn’t indicate lactose. The palate was closer to a porter than any imperial stout.

    What better way to start the day in the October Sun than drinking an October Sun?
