Waiting for the laundry to get done so I can switch it and head to my friends brewery to meet up with my wife, we're kid free til Sunday so what the heck. Even with the laundry I'll still get the to brewery before her, but in the meantime, hb hazy. Probably have time for a short pour of something else before I leave, hmmm..

Looking to step out of my comfort zone with this Urban South WCIPA. Got ready to pour and saw on the back of the can that it's their modern spin with "subdued bitterness and amplified softness". It does that with muted citrus/grapefruit aroma and taste, 6.7%. I kinda like it so it probably won't have any true WCIPA lovers as fans.

HB NEIPA. I’m trying to empty the keg so that I can have keg space for the Irish Red Ale that will be ready to keg in a few days. THEN I need to polish off the Smoked Porter keg so that I can make the Raspberry Hard Lemonade that I’ve seen several of you enjoying. Thanks @BongoYodeler for sharing the recipe with me!

As the kinda guy that sometimes drinks beer out of a peanut jar, I strongly approve of your glassware.
 
Interesting to find another person who cannot have caffeine? My stomach can't stomach it, in any form.
I'm in the same boat, grad school ruined coffee for me. Every year or so I'll have a cup on a Friday in the dead cold of January as a desperate ploy to warm up and get my butt in gear, but I wind up going full Cornholio for a couple hours while I relearn why I don't touch the stuff anymore.

Edit: this is a perfect example of a craft brewery pumping out mediocre beers and folks chugging them down just because it’s the cool thing to do. None of the six in the taster flight I would buy a larger glass of.☹️
I couldn’t really taste much of a distinction between the blonde, pale ale and IPA other than increasing levels of alcohol. The Scottish and red ale were meh… and the porter was just a dark roasty version of the blonde
