Treehouse. I think you can figure which is Dipa and which stout
oof. Addition. The stout? Done really well.
Year of the Wooden Snake is an amplified version of Year of the Snake! We taste candied grapefruit peel, dank sticky pine sap, lemon peel, and lime popsicles.
Year of the Wooden Snake is an amplified version of our recurring series celebrating the Chinese New Year! This Double IPA features a hefty charge of Citra and Simcoe with a dash of Nelson Sauvin hops. On top of this joyous blend is a whopping addition of Zumo hops from our friends at Segal Ranch! Pouring a glowing orange color into your glass, hoppy notes rush toward your senses! To start, our base of Citra and Simcoe provides aromas of candied grapefruit peel and dank sticky pine sap. Flickering between this classic American duo, Nelson hops bring forth notes of white grape and passionfruit candy. Joining in on the New Year celebration, we added a charge of Zumo hops that explode with notes of lemon peel and lime popsicles
Eternity is a barrel-blended imperial milk stout brewed with chocolate, coffee, and maple syrup. Featuring 45% barrel-aged Truth blended with a base stout brewed with chocolate, coffee, lactose, and maple syrup, Eternity pours a dense fudgy color in the glass with a dark brown head and puts forth flavors and aromas of bourbon-chocolate maple chews, maple-bourbon hard candy, and rich syrup tones. While dense with flavor, Eternity maintains a drinkability that is rare in a beer with this level of flavor. It is everything good about a comfortable morning distilled into this lovely bottle. Keep it cold and savor it - it is special.
As our barrel program continues to bear fruit, we find a great deal of joy in offering you a beer such as Eternity, at scale, for all to enjoy. Following Tree of Life Blended, Spacetime Continuum, & Vanilla Bean Truth, Eternity is another wonderful addition to our immense line-up of beers that aim to be packed with flavor while maintaining a pleasing drinkability. It is intended to be enjoyed by the 12 oz glass to truly enjoy the full breadth of its complexity, nuance, and character. Drink now or age it in the refrigerator for up to two years.
Oh. And I need to go home. Go C's!!!! Muuuuussst leave.....

Pretty tasty winter ale.
Aw, man, that's a bummer to hear. I gather they sold out to one of the international conglomerates?
My Helles of ignorance is nice on a stormy evening.
In the hope that ClaudiusB's great sewer adventure comes to a swift and amenable conclusion such that his Maibock season and Maibaum activities can get going again, I decided to cock the faucet a bit and do a real Hollywood pour on this glass.
It's not up to your standards, but I'm thinking about you, man!

They did and Bells too, I was surprised to be able to get a Bells Amber at the same place. That one was good too.
Yeah they changed the recipe for fat tire and it's not very good anymore. Was always one of the fall back options.
It’s Cinco de Mayo, you have to know that I’m drinking a Corona this afternoon! Hillarious thing, I took a great big gulp of this before adding the squeezed lime slices. It just doesn’t taste “right’ without the limes! Kind of like the old LA joke - "Clean air smells funny!"
I guess that’s what happens when you drink a beer for a long time and are used to the additions. I don’t know that I’ve ever really sat down and drank a Corona without the lime wedges. So what the heck DOES it taste like without the limes? Well, it is a professional and tasty 4.8% ABV adjunct Lager like many of the other BMC-type Mexican beers I’ve been drinking this week. Tasty enough to stand alone without the fruit, I guess it is another along the lines of Coors Banquet.
I do appreciate the big cans, those clear bottles have been the cause of consternation for years!

Half pint of wcipa.
Decided to get the homemade pizza in there too

Their beers really do suck now don’t they. My dad was a hardcore New Belgium fanboy and he can’t stand anything they make except 1554 also.
When I brewed bad batch I forced myself to drink every drop as punishment and a reminder to pay attention to what I was doing.
That's beautiful. Samuel Smith Nut Brown was one of my early favorites, so I brewed a lot of them. One made it to the finals at the Texas Bluebonnet competition but the judges dinged it for low carbonation. My father was mostly a Scotch drinker, when he drank at all, but he loved my brown ale. And back in the 2000's we had several French family members spend time with us, most had never had a beer in their lives but they drank all my brown ale.
I still haven't found a good brown ale made in France except Pelforth Brune, most brown ales here are sweet "ambree". There are a lot of British brewers in this area, but brown ales are not a style they pursue for some reason and the stores carry few British beers since Brexit.

Just got home from work and a Racer 7 looked really good. Sierra Nevada has a seasonal or limited edition brew called Rad Little Thing. It is not bad. But I have to admit I am a Racer 7 fan.

It was OK when it was fresh. The smoked malt developed a "meaty" flavour over time and so I left it even longer
.
But it's wise advice, nonetheless.
Actually it's terrible advice, but it did make me rethink my process when something turned bad.
Thanks!
While making dinner. Chicken parm in the oven.
SA ale with subtle cinnamon, nutmeg and orange peel. Not bad.

HB Munich Helles still going. No brewing until this darn leg heals up.
A few beers back I had a green-glass stored Dos Equis that I wasn’t too thrilled over. Which just goes to show if you hit up enough gas stations in the SoCal area, you never know what you might find. I found this great 24 ounce stovepipe of a beer in a wonderful can in the beer case behind the motor oil and air fresheners! Cans are great, they shield the beer from mis-handling perfectly. Is this can better than the bottle I drank? By a long shot!
So, we’re giving Dos Equis a Mulligan today. Really it’s an entirely different beer. While the mis-handled beer had taken on an old, library-book "essence," this one is a fresh and delicious Lager, along the lines of the other canned Mexican beers I’ve had this week. At 4.2% ABV, it’s another that might as well be a substitute for water! This one holds a head for a bit and even shows some lacing on the glass. Impressive!
Like the others, I saved the limes for the second half of the glass. With limes, you may as well think you’re drinking a Corona. I’d like to point out one other thing about these Mexican Lagers so far – it’s the outstanding clarity of the brew. Take that all you Faux German beer brewers from last month! These traditional beers (and yes, Mexican Lagers also trace German heritage) should have a pencil-point polish on them. Clarity is a must! Dare I say it?.... Prost, Sénior…..!

Institution Ale Co. Maple/Chocolate Brown Ale, in a proper glass.
I made my signature Chinese dish tonight, [name of meat here] That Must Go. Tonight's fridge cleaning iteration was Beef That Must Go with fresh Thai peppers. Here's some PP Bum Strength to help put out the fires.
SA Oaked Vanilla Porter. Definitely get the oak, maybe a tad too much for me. Vanilla is subtle but there. Pretty good beer, 5.8%.

Golden Monkey while trying out a new induction setup. I wanted a dedicated system for 1-2 gallon batches. $5 induction top I got from an Amazon liquidation auction and a $20 pot from Walmart. Checking the boil off rate. So far so good.
