What are you drinking now?

[coldcrash]

Cmon. I lift (weakly... Working on it)

I lift my fair share as well. Some days more than others but definitely more than once a week.

Getting a few reps in as we speak in fact

RV is packed. Time to SMa****!!

As my cousin's husband told me, "I'm a master of the 12 ounce curl."
He's such a fatty but drinks beer like a floccing champion.

Avery Twenty One. Wasn't planning on drinking tonight, but eh, why not.

Oh, and run on HBT. Hit the trail this morning and plan to again tomorrow.

Hello friends, i just got fantastic news, there is a brewery that is starting in my home town, the first brewery in my town since prohibition, my BIL is friends with the owner, he just stopped over at my house and told me he talked me upped to him and asked for my six best brews to give to him for him to try, i gave him my black ipa, my dipa,my conan dipa, my porter, my dipa, and my cascade ipa.... I'm so stoked

 

[olotti]

I got that a week and a half ago.

Atleast I'm not the only one. Lol. My wife says this all the time but since I started homebrewing I tell her its all in the name of research and development. Shea also a little jealous since she's pregnant and can't have any.

Well then clearly her judgment cannot be trusted. Disregard.

My wife's cousin is pregnant, and her husband got a t-shirt that says "She's eating for 2, I'm drinking for 3". Sounds like you need one of those!

Centennial Blonde here.

You're in NEPA right? Haven't been up there since the 90s but I remember an old defunct brewery building in Scranton I think. Lion?

Is the Mad Elf 2013 or has this year's already made an appearance? (It very well may have and is just buried behind the mountains of Pumking that have taken over the stores)

First time trying this.
Decent, but the hops are pretty muted. Bottled 4/11/14, so I don't think it's an age issue. Sadly reminds me of a bitter porter or something, not an IPA, though the spiciness of the rye is there.

Definitely an age issue. Should knock your socks off. I exchanged some hoptumum brewed in early April with some fresh stuff brewed last month and it msde a world of difference

Damn. Definitely not knocking my socks off.
I suppose I'll give it another go when I can find one that's a little more fresh.

2013. I've never seen Troegs release this prior to the holidays. Slainte Troegs.

IPA bottled more than 3 months ago and you don't think it's an age issue? It definitely is. That's my favorite BIPA. Find some fresh and you'll see a huge difference.

Got the dreaded "you gotta stop drinking so much" from swmbo. Onto a Gubna. Maybe just drink a few 10%ers instead?

Just tell her it's impossible to drink all day if you don't start as soon as you wake up.

That is over 3 months old, I imagine the hops have faded.

Edit: didn't scroll down before posting

I guess I'm an optimist.

I was always a kind of a low-hop guy because I'd never had a good IPA. I somewhat recently started drinking IPAs (enthusiastically) and still have never brewed one, so I chalk this up to a learning experience. Sights are a little weak still. First dud.

This is surprisingly not infected. One out of the ones i got. Rust under the cap too. Got one more. That one it probably infected

Little snack...everybody else will be asleep soon. Maybe one more beer tonight.

After selling our newly added puppy it was a sad day in our house. I had to have just one before trying to put my daughter to bed.

Lions head is still going strong, it operates as stegmaier also

They're slogan is "lions head...best head in town"

I lied about the nightcap. Drinking my Spruce Brown. And then going to bed.
