Hb coffee cream ale, pretty sure it's gonna kick soon..
First time seeing Schlenkerla cherry wood smoke Rotbier. Sweet smokiness, fruity, malty, a little caramel, a little hop bitterness. If you like rauchbier, I think you'll really like this one. I sure do!
HB Vienna lager
This photo should illustrate my deep commitment to the cause! It’s month number nine of the Beermeister32 reduction program, 51 lbs year to date. The daily beer drinking sacrifice is worth it in shedding the excess pounds. Gets me in prime form for future beer drinking. (Nah…!).
Seriously, I’ve been limiting myself to one daily delicious beer to write about, and then relegate the rest of my sad, lonely and pathetic evenings to diet beer. In this case, my go-to diet beer, Bud Zero!
Daughter #3 was worried a bit about old Beermeister32. “I witnessed the IPA-fest hedonism slack-jawed from earlier this year, and was worried that you might not be able to give it up Dad, er, Beermeister32!” Hey, old Dad loves his beer, but I can trim it back, yessiree! I love my family more.
Today’s indulgence is one of my perennial fav’s Bitburger Premium Pils. Is this a “classic Teutonic brew oder was?” Since 1817, 4.8% ABV, half-liter and not exactly fitting my man-size Pilsner bierglas, this is a fantastic beer. Prost!

HB Margarita. Shoot glass is bit small in volume but makes up in other ways.

After an Austin Classic 'Torchy's Tacos' evening, another Margarita with less mix and more tequila. 
The last Athletic IPA.
Didn't kick yet, hb coffee cream ale while making salsa, about 10lbs in the pot.

I thought the Guinness was pretty decent. How was the Athletic Octoberfest? The only issue I had with N/A's was, in general, there's a lot of added carbs. I wish they could make a 3% beer taste/feel like a 10%er. Now that would be money!
Drinking some caffeine at the moment since I’m working. This is what the hard lemonade looks like after adding in 50 ounces of raspberries and some potassium sulfate. I love the color and can’t wait to do the final steps and keg on Monday! I’m definitely looking forward to this one! Thanks @BongoYodeler and @ThirstyPawsHB for letting me pick your brain on this!
The Athletic was unfortunately my least favorite of the bunch. It came across the most thin and sharp tasting, and had this really prominent raw grain flavor that I found distracting. I usually kind of like a bit of that in some lagers, but I’m guessing without the alcohol to balance it just sort of becomes super apparent. I know they have to really push the pH low on these for food safety as well, so I’m wondering if maybe that also enhanced any of those flavors. It definitely wasn’t bad my any means, just not great relative to the others.
These are very well done. Picking up a Triple/Quad/Mead stuff.
Out back with the last bottle of HB Sticke Alt. Would definitely brew that again.
Found a Schlenkerla, lurking in the back of the beer fridge. Been there since winter. It has held up quite well!

I've consumed a lot of NA beers. I find freshness REALLY makes a difference, especially with the "hoppy" styles.
Having said that Guinness 0 is by far my favorite NA beer. It's so close to the original it's crazy.
It’s 4:00 so it’s not really day drinking, right?
Back at RV after bike ride sharing hops inspired recovery beverage with my Bro.
Sour Ale...not sure about this..
Half-a-liter (plus a little more) of Frankenweizen's Monster to wash down the pizza I ordered. This stuff goes good with pizza!
I've always felt beer should have its own action figure!
HM ginger beer. About half way through this glass I thought "I wonder how this would be mixed with some HM hard green tea?" It's a pretty tasty blend, a bit of sweet from the tea, a little heat along with the ginger flavor.
A/C was a 90% success. She's blowing cool/cold now. Tested in the 97F heat. Warms up a tad when idle but good enough for government purposes. Best part, I get my car back. 
That's 10 AM in Maui though...
12 pints of salsa, not all pictured, and a fiddlehead... I'm not drinking the salsa, just the fiddlehead.
