Cerveja Colorado Cauim - a Brazilian pilsner, very nice and a bit sweet. I've enjoyed all the beers from this particular brewery - I even hear it is available in the States now.

93 degrees here in the great north woods. I'm dying so while I install my AC I'm sucking down some homebrew blonde

Just unplugged my ferm cabinet, letting my saison and quad ramp up.

Thats doesn't sound like 90 degree weather beer at all.:confused:

It's not at all but it's been aging awhile and I was scheduled for a taste of it.

I don't usually let the weather dictate my drinks. It's a wheat beer isn't that what we're supposed to drink in the summer?
 
Drinking our Hoppily Married, 4.7% ABV, while working on a 4 liter starter for the next batch and the wife is singing to the sound track from Cadillac Records.
 
Just unpacked a gigantic beer bomb from the nizz.

We do have a man down though. :(

Everything was pack so well, I'm not sure why it broke.
You went above and beyond on this one Nizzle. I can't wait to start drinking! Thanks a bunch man!
After working up a sweat unpacking all that, I'm starting the night off with this one courtesy of my parents. Having parents that live in Chicago has its benefits.

IPA aged in French oak foudres.
 
Drinking the Bearded Pig Pilsner at Blue Tractor BBQ and Brewpub in Ann Arbor. Pretty good, especially with the hot weather and delicious BBQ.

Saint Somewhere Lectio Divina.
It's a cross between an abbey dubbel and a saison, open fermented with brett added at bottling. Not very familiar with Belgians, this is very good.
You guys never told me that once the cage is removed, the cork can come out at anytime. That was close to being a mess.

Oh look - you have a red Coq now too! ;)

Yep, there's a Coq in my picture now. I guess now I'll see why Ostomo and Nizzle love Coq so much. ;)

I know. Does Nizzle know how to hook a brutha up, or what?! I must point out that a good portion of those were "extras" that he threw in. He definitely went above and beyond with the awesome Michigan brews.

Glad you were ready. Is there a year on the cork?

Nice freakin haul! I'm not even allowed to legally purchase that much beer at one time in PA!

Well, I'm sure it's for your own good. The government really does know what's best for us. ;)
 
One of my last odell red! Mellowing before trip to the black hills tomorrow! Got two south dak breweries on the agenda that sound pretty good!

What have you decided? I've only had it twice, but I love that beer. So much that it's the only clone I've attempted. What's the batch number?
Click to expand...

Batch #3, August 2012. I liked it - I need to try more Brett beers I think, maybe some less fruity ones! Not 100% sure on the kumquat. SWMBO loved it. Really loved it. So I imagine I'll buy it again for her, even though it's pretty heavy on the wallet for me at nearly £15 ($23ish) so it won't be common.

Currently drinking an Anderson Valley Hop Ottin IPA which I've never heard of but the picture of the bear/moose hybrid on the front made me laugh so I bought it. Ragin' ***** for the missus.

I don't see a date anywhere. I'm going to assume its pretty young, they were coming off the truck when I pulled in today. Saint Somewhere is a really small brewery, the manager of my bottle shop said if you stop by on a bottling day, they will put you to work and pay you in beer.

Well, you just have to buy 192 ounces, pay for it, take it out to your car. Then you can go back inside and buy another 192 ounces. That's what makes that law so asinine.

I like the Hop Ottin, in fact most AV beers have been pretty solid.


Drinking an Old Dominion Hop Mountain PA ... has more hop aroma and flavor than I was thinking would be there. Not bad ... TGIF all!

Amarillo Pale Ale only bottled it about 12 days ago but it's carbed nicely and has good head retention. Tastes great too. Drinking his while I'm about to boil my ruination clone!

Drinking ballast point- victory at sea in moarn for WestlyS loss..

It's a shame when something breaks in transit.
I think I'm going to blame it on LoloMT. ;) He jinxed it by saying he hopes all the Dragon's Milk bottles broke. Well, they survived, but sadly something else didn't. Atleast it wasn't full of beer. That would've been an even greater loss.
Now I'm drinking another IPA.

Mankato Stickum! This is a solid brew! Nice deep amber color with nice malty backbone and subtle hop crispness!
