Some Chinese rice wine left from bottling. Seems a little less sweet and tart than it was a few weeks ago. Tasty.

You dunked on the color, though! For me, that's always the hassle with both of those beers. This year I'm not screwing around, it's full cheat mode for me: I purchased some Sinamar.
Thanks man. It’s a solid beer so I’m not upset at all but just not the competition beer I hoped it would be. I guess the one good take away is I now know what to adjust to turn this base into either style. I targeted 18 SRM if that helps you in anyway to hit the color for yourself

Couldn't get focus on both the can and the sunset so here's both.

A bit controversial commercial lager here but for some reason i like this. The taste is a bit dull after a sip of whiskey but it was much better before it. On my mind this is quite balanced beer. I've heard criticism, but they're usually from sources that lobby for small breweries.
 
I had to laugh when I found this tucked away behind some bottles on a bottom shelf. One of my very early ciders made from Aldi apple juice with Cote Des Blanc yeast with some lactic acid added, 7.1%. Put in a Dr. Pepper bottle (don't be too hard on me) on 04/15/2020. It actually held up pretty well. Smooth, hints of raisin on the nose and palate, a touch of acid. I really didn't expect it to be any good but I kinda like it. Last one, btw.

Trying out a new Italian restaurant tonight - and drinking some Pizza Port Chronic Amber Ale!

This pint came off the bar’s tap - I suspect this was a substitution. I’ve had Chronic Amber a number of times, this pint’s color seems off and has a fruitiness about it - almost like a Samuel Smith ale. Otherwise a good brew, just different than what I’m used to. Cheers!

A pint pot of ordinary bitter while I do my laundry in the brewery because a plastic bit cracked in the washer. Where do I sign up for the Twelve Beers of Christmas? You guys are going to love my Dirty Socks Mild.

Thank you, Max Stout! Using the zoom seems to be helping with the new phone...just maybe less zoom next time. ;)

Another @pshankstar beer, Peanut Butter & Jelly Crunchee, from Other Half. A raspberry/peanut butter Berliner Weisse. Shared with a neighbor who loves PB beers and sours.

Didn't think I'd like it, but it worked for me. I have a general rule that I don't like sours, but with any rule there are exceptions. I would order this if I was at the brewery.

Followed by a Pseudo Sue. Lazy Sunday afternoon.
