A friendly place for friends who drink

[applescrap]

Im so jealous brewinbroman. Someone said this was good so I tried it. I like the sweetness of it. Here is the upstairs window air conditioning by the way, in case anybody was interested. I can assure you I'm not upset to be sitting downstairs by the other one.

I didn't know Austin was so pretty. Would really mean a lot to me to visit Texas where Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson , and Harvey Penick played golf.

Went straight to Infamous brewery.

How'ed that go??

 

[applescrap]

Good morning, got to finish that stupid bathroom. Got the mirror in. We spray painted it. Really like spray paint makes me want to paint all kinds of stuff.

Great beer and some live music. Interestingly, the two hoppy styles, their IPA and session pale were my least favorites of the lineup, but my wife really liked them. Too much of floral flavor/aroma for my tastes, but decent. I'd had their peanut butter stout before - still good.

Howdy, folks! Went on a nice ~1.5 mile hike through the woods this morning, then spent some time by the pool and some margaritas and beer!

Yeah..only because of alcohol. Chopping grass in this 150% humidity with a HB Raspberry Summer Shandy attempt 1. Used Saison yeast so some pepper is definitely getting through.

Seriously, gloomy and humid as hell!! Won't stop me from enjoying a vacation, though. Rain or shine, I will drink lots of beer! [emoji482]. Planning on Oasis to check out their brewery and dinner tonight. Probably won't be much of a sunset, but ah well.

Tomorrow heading into the city. Thinking about Austin Beer Garden. Looks like a good beer selection and decent lunch menu.

Good choice! About 3miles south on South Lamar is Pint House Pizza south. Recommend stepping in for Electric Jellyfish, if not an entire fight (or 2!).

Ha! This isn't the likes of the raspberry hard Lemonaid. Kind of an experiment. It's a bit thin, light in flavor but peppery due to Saison yeast.

All the better drink it all night long . Been working on the gardens all day they're almost done.

Coffee. Long day of yard work and hopefully bottling my DEM.

 

[applescrap]

Golfing today, glad I did some stuff yesterday so I don't feel so guilty about going. Haven't played since I blew up at The Ridge at Castle Pines a couple weeks ago. Got a light in the bathroom yesterday. This thing was expensive for single sconce and I don't know if it matches. That being said it's like being at the club.

Hi!

How's the remodel going? The floor looks good.

Thanks! Going good- time has been at a premium lately so I haven't been able to devote as much time to it as I want. Just have to finish trim and I'm going to replace the slider that leads to the sunroom and I am in the process of refinishing the mantle around the fireplace.

 

[smurfjuice]

Brizzo, there is a place in Heaven for ya lad ... ... :rockin:

 

[BrewinBromanite]

All pretty decent, but nothing standout here for me at ABGB. For some really hop-forward descriptions, most just tasted very similar and a lot of bitterness, not much for flavor/aroma. Had some good pizza, though! The Hells yes Helles, IIPA and Imperial red were my favs of the bunch.

Big Mama is my fav. They have a nice RIS during winter. PintHousePizza is better imho..

 

[applescrap]

Super slick greens and some wind it was tough out there today. Well that and i choked my way around. Glad to see you living it up brewingbromanite. Our next trip is coming up we are taking our popup to goblin valley state park. With a quick stop in moab.

Hi!

@bcbg Melomel. I think you told me it was blackberry? Anyway, I'm a fan of this.

I'm with ya, best of the bunch for sure. Pint house is on the agenda today, because more pizza and beer just seems like a great idea! Happy Monday friendly working folks!! [emoji12]

Thanks, this was a much needed vacation. Your gardening looks pretty extensive. Whatcha growing?

Recreational camping or hiking/4 wheeling camping?

 

[applescrap]

Thanks, this was a much needed vacation. Your gardening looks pretty extensive. Whatcha growing?

4 strawberry
3 egg plants
1 bananna pepper
1 poblano (these do well)
3 various bell pepper (never have let sit long enough to turn colors)
1 sweet pepper
4 basic tomato plants
2 cherry tomato
3 lettuce
3 spinach
6 broccoli
3 brussel sprouts
4 green bean plants
2 cillantro
2 basil
1 red lettuce

I think this is about it more or less. They are in 1 3 and 7 gallon grow bags. The pools are self watering and I have been posting on a garden thread that will be easy to find if you are curious for more.

Im trying to grow things that are plentiful and grow well here. Also things that aren't super cheap to buy, like corn. This year I have a lot of seed going as well. My favorites are the eggplant and green beans. Haven't found a good place to do squash yet. I want to grow hops next!

Glad to hear you're having a good trip. Look forward to seeing what kind of pizza and beer you got into today.

Recreational camping or hiking/4 wheeling camping?

Recreational camping and hiking. My wife and I used to hike every day when camping. Mostly because we need the exercise . But with a 2 year old and 4 year old I'm not sure. I used to hike with my son in a pack, but since my herniated disc I'm not sure I can withstand the pain. Or I guess better said it might send me into a relapse. I would love to 4 wheel but don't know where to go or how to. Did you say 4 wheel camping what is that? Have you spent much time where we're going could you recommend anything? The vehicle is a 98 4 Runner.

Hi.

 

[Qhrumphf]

So, uh, how are things?

Scrap, corn is already 5 for $1 and it isn't even in season yet. Olathe sweetcorn will be coming in soon and is usually 4-5-6+ ears/$1.
