It's one of my favorites and I do not thing there is any lactose in this beer

Hmm. That's surprising. Definitely had some sweetness to balance the roasty character. Anyway it was delicious. Thanks.

I think they have to but milk or lactose on the can if they use it. Some people are lactose intolerant or vegan aka pansy

Banh Mi sounds delicious right now. There's a place in the Eden Center (in Falls Church VA, worth a trip if you like Vietnamese food) that makes the best Banh Mi I've had, and it's very cheap.

Which place is your go-to for banh mi in Eden Center? Best pho place there, in your opinion?

It was good - very solid IPA.

Having some water before working out.

Say what?

I am having a Coff. Feels weird not having my drinking/brewing buddy around in the house today. All alone here.

I must've got a fresh one because I thought it was great but then again I think torpedo is good so what do I know?

oh, come on man! haha I even admitting to liking the one I had the next night. I cant help if a guy hands me an old IPA and I didnt enjoy it. :cross:

On the coffee. headed into the office today for a few meetings with the head muckety mucks

Done with Coff.

On to beer.

Done moving wood into the house. It started snowing 30 min ago. The head on my beer froze around the edges.

Having an orange/carrot juice before diving into more beer.

This is a good hefe. I can see myself drinking a lot of these in the summer.

Just finished shoveling the first 3+ inches that's fallen so far. Now having some tortilla soup and water before getting back to work.

3" already? Jeez.

We have about .5" so far and it's been snowing for 2.5 hrs more or less. The biggest accumulations will come around 5-7 p.m.

Having a water and ground turkey tacos.

I like Song Que's Banh Mi. I don't remember if I've had any Pho from anywhere in Eden Center, but I definitely should.

This is a good one, too.
I don't understand the ratings on ratebeer. Dry dock makes some good beers.

Pho? Perfect day for some. Two of my favorites are Pho Sate in Falls Church, VA and Unphogettable in Mesa, AZ.

Looks like someone found the Dry Dock sampler 12 pack.

I agree, their stuff is good. Great atmosphere for a brewery and they are attached to a home brew store, if you are ever in the Denver area. They have some bomber only releases that are good also. Particularly like their vanilla porter.

Edit: dry dock does not draw in the hipster crowd, could explain their low ratings

He was saying their low ratings are because of hipsters.

I have been waiting to drink that one but I dont think I can hold off any longer. Might have to kill it tonight.

My Conan the Warrior pale ale.

Yeah, my parents actually picked it up for me when they were in Denver. Everything is pretty good. The apricot beer wasn't my favorite, but it was good for what it is.

I've been to the brewery and home brew shop and you're right, the vanilla porter is awesome. I wish it came in the sampler pack.

Oh ok. Yeah, I don't get the 30-40 ratings, the beers are good. Nothing spectacular, but good.

I would drink it sooner than later. The vanilla compliments the beer very well.

I'm having the hop abomination now. It's a decent IPA.

I'm gonna have to find and go to Unphogettable since I live in Mesa, according to Google it is about 1.5 miles from my place. Thanks for the heads up! There are a bunch of little asian markets and restraunts all around me...

All this talk of dry dock is making me thirsty.

Might drink my lunch there tomorrow. Got a meeting this afternoon.

Do it,man! It is in some sort of mall and looks like a nicer pho place than you would expect, but the food is amazing. Some of the best pho places I've been to look run-down, like much of the great barbecue places I've been to in Texas, but the food is fantastic.

It's actually 42*F today. I took a sick day from work because my toddler is sick. He's been sleeping for a while, so I thought I'd have a few beers.

This is really, really good.

Cheers.

As long as you can keep it together during meetings, you're good. I tend to think a lot better (at least I tell myself that) and come up with better ideas after a brew or two.

My wife has finally finished one of my beers - my Warrior Pale Ale w/Conan. She typically hates all types of beer. Snooty wine drinkers.

All this talk of pho and banh mi made me go out and get some for lunch. Was thinking pho, but went banh mi in the end. The place was out of pate (grr), so the traditional version was out, but their version with short ribs and kimchi was pretty darn good.

No pic, sorry.

My warrior pale.

I wish I had Pho right now. Closest place is in Bridgeport which is about 30 miles from me. It's a traditional spot, the women there barely speak English. I love their food.

DisturbdChemist's open fermented Bavarian Hefe.

Tasty! Thanks DC
