A pint of sloop at localish watering hole. They have good beer here, but it's rarely something from their own fermenters, hence the sloop.

Well I did the Japanese Lager tour a while back and more recently Light Lager beers - then this Kirin Light shows up on the shelves. A great opportunity for an addition to both, but rolled into one!

Kirin Light is a very light beer, reminds me a little of Coors Light watered back with about 25% fizzy water. At 95 calories per 12 ounce, it is light – Also interestingly, it is rated at 3.2% ABW (Alcohol By Weight) rather than the more common ABV (Alcohol By Volume) which works out to about 4% ABV.

The rest is very common to a lot of light Lagers, very clean and crisp, a great drinker with food. I usually like to order Japanese beers when we are hitting the sushi bars. とても爽やかです !

Getting a to go order at Champy's Famous Fried Chicken in Daphne (great chicken, cool vibe, friendly folks!). They cook everything to order so having a frosty Pacifico while we wait. I haven't had this beer in a long while and really enjoyed after spending the day unloading and working on unpacking our stuff. I'll have to try it more often.

I wouldn't....you don't know this team like I do. If you like the yanks, keep watching.
I do like the Yanks, started watching them when they were bad, back in the mid/late 60's. But the last few years my wife has turned into a rabid fan....screaming at the TV and all that. Not sure what started it. :)
 
Hey, not a bad summertime beer!

A hot summer day and a cooler full of those on ice was a staple back in the day 'round here. Even better were the ponys. Those ice cold 7oz bottles went down just a bit too well sometimes. LOL.

I still do that on occasion, and enjoy it.
Oh, it’s good beer. I’ve drunk many in my day too, but compared to the two Schwarzbiers earlier, I much prefer the Schwarzbier.
I just made a yeast starter for a NEIPA that I hope to brew Sunday.
OT
Coffee for now
