Schilling and Trillium dark Czech lagers
Look at what the Rabbit brought me this year, the heck with colored eggs. Today’s score is a 6-bottle sampler from Samuel Smith, The Old Brewery in Tadcaster, UK. Still produced open fermentation in Yorkshire squares, today’s first volunteer is their “Organic Pale Ale”.
For starters, the box says the Pale Ale label has been used for 120 years and is now used on their Organic Pale Ale. Not sure the difference. Besides, aren’t all beers when you get right down to it “Organic”? I guess you could say I’ve been on a “Plant Based” diet for years! Buncha hippies….!
A chugworthy and delicious pale ale if there ever was one, Organic Pale Ale pours a nice one finger head, has a slightly cloudy but nice copper brown color and has great lacing on the glass. Not that I spent a lot of time evaluating the lacing, I was drinking - I’m serious, you can put this easy-drinking baby down in about three gulps! Lower-medium carbonation, this is UK brewing at its best. A conservative 5.0 ABV, nifty glass bottle, maybe I’ll have to re-use these. I’m happy… I can hardly wait to raid the rest of the box. Cheers!

A 70 IBU all citra beer. Really scratches an itch.

Time to relax
Son/DiL brought this. It was the last one from their wedding in November. Ribs we're a big hit even though I had some self criticism.
Delicious
Night Cap
Damn, these are good
Canadian nightcap
I like these too
Just got back from a 2.5 hour service for Easter and my son joining the Catholic church and taking his first communion there. They talk more than Baptists and don't sing as good!
Jk, lovely service.
OT: double vodka and olives to recuperate.

HB Mead. Pretty sure my taste buds have been slowly numbing over the years. DiL tastes a hint of apple which I don't. I'm assuming it's acetaldehyde since the fermentation stopped during the winter storm/5 day power outage but I did my best to restart. It never finished as low as hoped.
Finally, a brew day. Taking time off the backyard. Need to clean up first.
Houston Pils helps

After a long day and an even longer week I'm glad to kick back and relax with this Bornem Double.
Delicious after clean up.
Dubbel mashed in... chilling for now with some dramatic golf..
HB adjunct lager with Sonnet hops. Cup is Tossware POP, which -- for those who care -- is the least eco-unfriendly semi-disposable cup I could find.
And a short pour of a HB English Brown:
No worries. Saving the earth is impossible. Our local star will eventually take it down anyway.
Rebranded 12ish% HB Mead as an Apple Mead

No, it isn't some hazy fancy beer, this is straight up hooch made from left over peach juice and peach "nectar". A bit of simple syrup makes the flavor come through pretty nice, but this was certainly my most "quick n dirty" batch to date.
Just finished the 4 hour drive home from my son's house. I'm thirsty and this AL pils hits the spot!
HB Vienna/Mosaic SMaSH after spending the day at our daughter and SIL’s house.
