I don't know why I keep punishing myself with this beer. I never like it but always buy it.

First bottle of my newest conan pale ale. Over carbed as my bottling amount fell short when the siphon clogged. Tasty otherwise.

Taste is definitely a subjective thing. I have tried and loved them all except that one which I will try very soonI don't know why I keep punishing myself with this beer. I never like it but always buy it.

I have only had IPA's (IPA and Ruination) by Stone...and I'm not a fan of their stuff.
I'm going to go ahead and say it... I'm not a stone fan. There I said it. I respect that they were able to weather the great beer storm of the 90s. Especially with there flagship beer being anything but a session beer. IMO there's way better nationally available IPAs out there.
I think I would rather watch paint dry then golfOnly beer I've cared for was Ruin Ten myself. Time to work on emptying simcoe IPA for Heady. Golf before the Stanford /Wash st. game,
If only they knew how good the Hibiscus Saison is, THEY would be jealous! (Of course I've never had a Pliny, so what do I know? But I HAVE had the Hibiscus Saison!)
Currently not enjoying any beverage at all, while I cook dinner and type this between timers going off.
I don't know why this always makes me nervous....
I'm a stone fan, but I visit SoCal often and had my share of flesh eatingly bitter/dry IPAs, so I definitely appreciate them.
Im not a fan of stone either. They have a few winners but most is way to bitter to enjoy

Cenntenial/simco/conan IPA.
Too lazy for a picture, MFing work tomorrow.
I brought the hi nelson to my alumni function last weekend and had multiple people tell me it was the best beer they had ever tasted. My slightly modified version of course

I have taken bottles to the LHBS guru and the brewer at a local brewery and all were very impressed. And these guys are honest when critiquing home brews, so I was psyched! Looks like I have 2-1/2 hours until I have to go anywhere, so I'm going to have one Citra Saison. (That I made with harvested Belle Saison from my batch of Hi Nelson.)

Found this in the back of uncles fridge. Was excited for a non coors light until I saw this

Found a stash of cans I tucked away in the brewery - luckily they weren't IPAS! Since we are in season for sure, I'll have this - thanks BrewinHooligan. Great beer!

Now for some more touch-up painting... A couple minor things for the contractor to finish plus the shower glass and it will be done. Can't wait to have my bathroom back!

May i suggest a reading on catching fruit flys?HB Citra Belle Saison...if you like Citra hops, this is awesome. If you don't, then it sucks; but technically, it's awesome.
Swine fruit fly dove into my last bit after I took this photo and drank some more. Fruit flies have been KILLIN' me since late August and the crab apples I used in jelly and ciders were sitting around. I put out little traps: bowls with molasses, apple cider vinegar and a drop of Dawn detergent. They catch a bunch of them, but I can't seem to break the reproduction cycle. I use a flying insect spray, but have to do it when SWMBO is out...very sensitive to sprayed things. But pour a beer or start prepping some food and they are all in your face. Pisses me off!
Goose Island...still gotta be better than Coors Light!
