What are you drinking now?

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Neighbors' hens had moved into my bushes because their home wasn't secure against a curious raccoon. Neighbor "fortified" their coop and herded them back in with his yipyap mutt. Woke up this morning to lady neighbor keening in grief. 3 dead, 1 fatally injured, 1 freaked the f*ck out.

"Fortified."

Raccoons are the only thing stopping me from having a small flock.

The usual problem is most backyard hen keepers build their coops to keep the chickens in. Better, and more expensive, to build them to keep predators out.

Neighbor is a good natured guy, but no engineer. The run is chicken wire attached to a few uprights, open along the bottom edge. 'Fortification' comprised of laying some loose firewood in front of said open bottom edge.

No pictures but I’m drinking a Mosaic IPA.

Yep, that’s a head on my blood orange hop water.

A chain link fence dog pen doesn’t work either, unless the fabric goes into the ground and the fowl is kept a raccoon’s arm length away from it. Essentially needing a strong perimeter around the coop and yard area. When one has a small suburban flock a couple go into the food chain are missed. So sad.

HB. Supposed to be altbier, but I think I ended up with a slightly too bitter Dunkel. Very tasty, whatever it is:

Now that's the Remmy I remember!

Several after work beers. Helles kicked... SNPA/HB-NEIPA and now same with the very last ever Anchor Steam.

Anyone on the east coast hear of Sideways Brewery in North Carolina. Have a story if so.

Late reply, but I am in a camper 45 minutes from Sideways and don't live too much further away. Always up for a story.

It's 80⁰+ here in the mountains but it's still stout season. Cheers y'all!

It’s always stout season for me no matter the temp

 

[JAReeves]

After 5 days in the Big Bear Mountains with our campus ministry and student leadership teams from the high school (I cooked for them this time around), I was ready to be served.

A brown ale made by Dan at South Bay Brewing Supplies (who brews for Red Car) and an IPA.

Life is good.

Kids give Radiers of the Lost Ark a thumbs up, but a thumbs down for special effects...as expected.

A nice aged imperial porter … age does wonders

Just got 4" of rain in an hour with another wave coming around midnight. May be a good night to stay in and make sure the chainsaw is working.

Someone say stout season? Mott The Lesser RIS. A new brewery opened up in my town is having a Christmas in July tomorrow. Wrap up a beer and put it in the fridge to grab another gift someone left. Might throw one of these in there

I definitely agree. I'm not always in a stout mood, but the craving can strike any time of year. Cheers!

 

[lumpher]

I'll drink a dry stout in 95 degree feels like 105 weather. Good stuff.
