What are you drinking now?

Does the SanJuanWorm do the San Juan Shuffle?

 

[ClaudiusB]

It's quality control night. I brew beers for brewers from a local brewery by request for our monthly lunches.
This is a German Red without the smoke character.

[Hoochin'Fool]

Homebrew Imperial Stout (a pre-cursor variation on this recipe, only difference was I dropped the OG to 1.103, IBUs to 60, and got lower FG than typical [1.022])...

It's coming up on 11 months since bottled, and tasting pretty amazeballs!

 

[Brewsmith]

A beer and glass from the way back machine.

As I keep putting my brewing stuff away and organize all my brewing equipment, I opened the boxes with all my beer glasses. Included was this one:

The OG Vintage 2008 HBT Pint Glass
Anyone else around here have some of these?

Paired with a vintage 2008 beer

Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barleywine 2008

Some carbonation on opening. Pours deep amber. Aroma is dark malts and a little pine. It’s a little sweet, very malty, and almost no hop character left. Some bitterness, but very on the malty side. The bitterness lingers as the sweetness fades away.

Definitely past its prime but drinkable.

The thread with the original glass discussion is here which had all of us on the edge of our seat the entire summer of 2008, with the glasses finally materializing in the fall.

I don't think I have anything from 2008. Between my kids and my own drunken carelessness, I'm constantly replenishing glassware. This is why I primarily browse Goodwill. I'll find winners once in a blue moon...no pun intended...

Out for lunch and beer at Rail Werks, Columbia Heights, MN. Excellent BBQ.

Having their "dry dark ale," not bad.

They make an outstanding Altbier, too.

Edit: and a flight of IPAs and a brown ale.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

Out of power on the windiest day in years. It's either read a book or drink.

Edit, need to up my solar game!

 

[Cheshire Cat]

My Guinness West Indian Porter clone. Now 3 months old. Very nice.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

Couple free Real Ales (previous post). This WCIPA is similar to Pinthouse Scorpion Disco in character. Welp, that's enough analysis for one day.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Last beer tonight a Leffe Blonde clone at 7.1%. Carbonation is good but head retention not so good, but tastes great.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

$1.69 for 24 oz of pretty good cream ale. What a deal!View attachment 870072

Pretty good? My good Sir, it is the quintessential cream ale!
I’m sipping H2O from the fridge tap. Well, from a glass actually.

Happy fat Tuesday!
What am I giving up for lent?Keto!(well for tonight)
@kurds_2408 Thanks Santa! After avoiding sweet for what seem to be forever, this really hit the spot! Typically I am not a fan of cinnamon in a beer (completely turn me off of an X-mass ale) but this hit just right. I am not getting a cinnamon roll for a while but this certainly scratched an ich for me.

 

[Brew_Dude41]

And that didn't last long... Another brew from Santa (@kurds_2408 ) and a good representation of one of my favorite styles. Considering I passed up on them last fall I was excited to un pack this one!
Thanks again Santa!

Abita Mardi Gras bock. Not bad.

March is always the best time to live in El Paso, TX, with free sand for all our outdoor and indoor projects, including the brewery.

Time to double down when life says **** it all..

 

[firerat]

Coffee.

Hopefully in about 2 weeks or so the kveik IPA I plan to brew, which is my first anything in 2 years, will be ready to drink and participate in this thread again!!!

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Pint of my Abbot Ale while having the first BBQ of 2025. It was a scorching 15 c today.

 

[Remmy]

Wow

Maybe its the pic but that doesn't look appealing. Looks oxidized and not the opaque yellow it suggests on the can.

 

[day_trippr]

I was thinking the same thing. Hopefully it's just the lighting.
After brewing hazies for the last five years I'm so sensitive to "that look" when I'm out at an establishment and the glass looks like that...or if I buy beer when I'm up at our mountain place and the first pour looks like that

Cheers!
