More HB tour. Speaking of RIS, 2.5 months in, starting to enjoy this one. Just a hair dry imho.

You sent me that, right? I think I liked it.

Going with a steak dinner over here as well. Just need to figure out what to cook with it.

Found a box of pumpkin beer way in the back of the closet in the basement, was hoping time would make them drinkable. Nope, both of these were dumpers.

How did the Select treat ya?

Possibly. A younger version. You know how stouts morph so much at the start. This is clearly more what I like now. Thank you sir!

Speaking of..nothing like a 12% with a double jalapeno cheeseburger and Cheddar-peppers! Screwed up the instructions however..

It's the Hunahpu clone recipe thread on here. I think what I used was right, just left it in too long. Right now it tastes like a "Christmas" beer but I'm sure it will fade with time. I'd post the link, but I'm on mobile right now.

Ok, thanks!

Well, decent showing for me at the Cherry Blossom Comp, two golds out of three entries, both also sent to NHC and Spirit of Free Beer, so that's a good sign. Rather bummed my Oat Mild didn't place, but I've grown accustomed to bad results with Milds.

While I was there, in addition to judging three flights, Right Proper Diamonds Fur Coat Champaign (Berliner), Denizens Blood Orange Southside (Blood Orange Rye IPA), Perennial Sump (Coffee RIS), and then Franklins Plumpeltartskin (Wild Ale w/ plums).

Home now, drinking seltzer. England came back from behind to beat Germany, two out of three goals were Spurs lads, and no injuries, good showing despite being a friendly that doesn't matter in the slightest. DC United is losing of course. 20 minutes until the Caps (hopefully) clinch the President's Trophy.

I guess that makes a good day.

Drinking Hawaiian Punch and vodka at the party, with a silly straw. Fun times with family and a boat load of kids.

Last time I drank that I got pulled over and called low class by the cop as he poured out our "fire water" and sent us on our way, I was legal (18) but my passengers weren't.
Times have changed

Well met, @banesong . Always nice to put a face to the name.

You sir are clearly not a Marine...

Yes, I've heard rumors. But It's possible I got an old one. Twas not a good beer to me.

Duff do not make me take arms against my brother.

Hah!

Just that I recall a Marine who would practically turn around and leave the room if there were apricots present. Some WWII superstition or something I don't particularly understand.

If I remember correctly it is tankers that have an issue with apricots. They are another breed.
