What beer are you drinking now? #4883

A nice Head Hunter tallboy is hitting the spot on the dark rainy afternoon!



skunk cabbage from earlier hike before it started to rain again....

 

When in doubt, always go for two! Cheers, Tom!

 

1) Phase Three Breach (7.8% canned 12/14/25): A NEIPA from Chicago with Citra, Galaxy, and Superdelic for flavors of peach, mango, orange peel, passionfruit
versus
2) Phase Three Dimensional Drift (8.0% canned 1/21/26): A NEIPA from Chicago with Mosaic, Amarillo, Krush for flavors of orange, guava, and blueberry bubblegum. (Mismatched the two blind)

Phase Three IPA Battle. These are always one of my favorites battles. First is Breach. Citra/Galaxy plus some Superdelic. Lots of pineapple notes. Pretty good.
Next is Dimensional Drift. Mosaic and Amarillo for some orange and blueberry flavors plus some Krush. Very tropical without being too sweet. Phase Three does some Amazing Mosaic work.
Winner: Phase Three Dimensional Drift

Breezy out on the dock. AALL time. TallBoy Tuesday after work Cheers!!

 

Having a Fiddlehead IPA - much better than the Dogfish Head Covered in Nuggs - much better.



Just went out and scraped off the driveway as the snow is starting to turn to freezing rain, and rain later on. Much easier to get all that snow off before it's waterlogged, heavy, and frozen. Then I threw down some ice melt to help keep the ice at a minimum. Should be in good shape tomorrow morning.

 

No food at Do trail, so nightcap at EPI.

Lots of Red Stripe, but my phone is deciding not to charge. Likely off for the rest of the trip. Cheers. Maybe a miracle, and it will decide it will work.

 

Good luck with your surgery, I hope all goes well and wish you a quick recovery. Cheers!

Another new Ontario beer for me. Review to come later.

 

I always buy the whole San Marzano DOP tomatoes and then puree them a bit in my food processor. But what I've been doing instead of chopping an onion and sauteing it, I slice it into chunks and toss it in with the tomatoes and some garlic in the food processor so they get pureed right into the sauce. Works really well and makes for a really tasty sauce.

And of course, a healthy does of some red wine, usually about a 1/2 cup. I used a Cabernet Sauvignon in this batch. Gives it a nice earthy touch. Got the pasta water on now and will be making my angel hair shortly.

Cheers!!

 

Cheers!!
