Awesome that I can get some fresh-ish Lawson’s in NC. Had this in Mass a few years ago & it must have been an old can, stored at room temp. Clear to me why this is a beloved American IPA.
What are you drinking now?

Found a Duvel, hiding in the back of the beer fridge.
That’s odd I was thinking that exactly 1 day ago. I hope he is doing well!

OK, I GIVE UP! I’ve tried, MAN I’ve really tried to review the top Japanese beers this week, and we’ve had a few for sure. I guess the frustrating thing about this endeavor is actually tracking something down that was brewed in Japan. I’m finding a lot of Japanese brews are JINO – Japanese in name only!
So how do we categorize Asahi, a beer that I’ve had plenty at local sushi bars throughout California and up and down the West Coast. Well, all is good in Asahi world until I read the top of the label – “PRODUCT OF ITALY” !!!!
So on the front of the label it proudly proclaims Asahi Breweries Limited. On the back of the label it is brewed and packed by Birra Peroni S.R.L., Rome, Italy. And then imported by Asahi Beer USA, Torrance, California. And then the front laughably says it is brewed under supervision of “Japanese Master Brewers.” In Italy no less - that’s interesting… Japanese Master Brewers supervising Peroni brew crews.... I’d love to see that… HA!
So the blinds have been lifted from my eyes. Welcome to the US markets fellas, have at it, I'M DONE! Back to my Bavarian and San Diego favs….!

Hasn’t logged in since March 24’ he was an everyday guy so that always gives me bad vibes.
I’ve traded beer with him before so I do have his address if anyone what’s to reach out.
Wine night. Working on killing a bottle from one of our favorite wineries in the Santa Ynez Valley.
Finally starting the match. This is why I want to retire early. Going to be a rough 12hr day tomorrow...
More PhP yum yum.... WCIPA
A bit of Proper Twelve.
VB Drama..but grandma would be proud of the 2024 team.
Doing my part
Collaboration with Zillicoah (NC). Wolf is a dry hopped lager developed with NC's Zillicoah Beer Co., which suffered catastrophic damage during Hurricane Helene. Inspired by Sierra Nevada's Celebration Ale, Wolf pours an unfiltered amber color with notes of pine and citrus zest. Earthy spice notes with resin and grapefruit dance on the palate. *All proceeds from Wolf will be donation to Zillicoah's rebuild.
Kolsh brewed @ Fort Point, San Francisco. Clean and crisp.
I’m sitting here watching Army-Navy and writing during commercial breaks - and drinking beers from the great depths of the Beermeister32 bierhoard! Peter’s Brand is a 5% ABV “Dutch Pilsener” whatever that is. The can says Peter’s Brand is actually made in Braunschweig, Germany. Boy, I have to quit reading these cans, what a knot to undo. So, we have “Dutch Pilsener” being brewed in Germany by Hofbrauhaus Wolters for Union Export Brewery, Holland, then to be shipped to Holland. Doesn’t that make it German Pilsner, er, Pilsener? Makes perfect sense to me… !
I’m still trying to figure out what constitutes Dutch Style Pilsner/Pilsener. Maybe being made in Holland? That would be too easy. Well, head is a bit less, carbonation is a bit lower, lacing is not so much and hopping seems like a Helles to me – 4 markers all a bit different from some of the Czech and Bavarian Pilsners I’m been drinking lately.
So, I think I’d rather be drinking a Paulaner. I do have a fondness for Bavarian Pilsners. On the other hand, I bought six cans of these Peter’s Brand Classics for the price of 4 Paulaners. As they say in the Army, “Quantity has a Quality all its’ own!” Prost… !
