A bunch of heady beers I couldn't possibly buy in my town.......Heady Topper, Civil Disobedience, Surly, Bells, New Glarus, Zombie Dust, Sammy Smith Choc, a The Bruery Saison ImageUploadedByHome Brew1415668339.634124.jpg
 
I grew up with my great grandma giving us apple cider vinegar for health when my parents weren't around...explains my taste for sour beer.
 
Been a hot minute since I had this and it is so good. Sharing it with a buddy who just showed up to watch MNF.


Had that a few nights ago and it was great. Went back to the same place today and didn't score a repeat.

Any of these worth picking up? I've never heard of the ones in the first pic and I've never had anything from Lost Aby.

Hmmm.. whats a good price on a cord of firewood? Thoughts? Remmy? you are the expert since you have probably split at least 3 by now this year.

Lets go for number 4. I dont have to work tomorrow.

Good price? Around $125-150. I've never paid for wood but have seen a cord go for $175-225 delivered here in CT. I'd say CT marks-up prices on everything. Why? Because we're the red-headed step child of New York Schitty.

So, yeah. I'd say <$150 delivered is legit.

Little taste of my El Dorado IPA. Very disappointing the only other time I used El Dorado it was a fruit bomb. 2012 El Dorado but kept vacuum sealed in the freezer.

Well good gotdarn. I am seeing costs like $590. That cant be fair. I know I live in a high cost of living area but f me that has to be ridiculous. I might go so far as 250 or so but really?

Around here it is $60 a cord delivered and stacked by ******** that tear up your yard with cut this year **** wood. Twice that for professional service and good wood.

Fbs is only aged by millionaires and people that don't like beer.

Nothing life threatening. I tore my rotator cuff while getting (trying to get?) my swole on. On Wednesday the surgeon is going to go in and reattach the tendon where it is supposed to go.

Having what I believe to be @mattmmille 's Coffee Chocolate Stout. I can't remember what all the codes on your caps meant, so please correct me if I'm wrong, Matt. It's overcarbonated, but that's really the only thing I notice off about it. The coffee and chocolate are both quite present in the beer and it's quite enjoyable, even if I have to dig through the carbonation a bit to pick up the coffee and chocolate notes. Nice brew, Matt!

Yeah,I knew it was overcarbed...but hoping it was still enjoyable. Not complex or anything, but despite being an extract/partial mash, I used some good Kona blend, cold brewed coffee at bottling and Costa Rican cocoa husks in the boil and nibs in the secondary. I just felt like it was missing something. Let me know what you have left, I'll ID them for you! And good luck with the shoulder surgery. SWMBO had what was probably a more involved rotator cuff surgery recently and it has been a long, frustrating recovery...but she's getting there.

Tomorrow, I drive to Yale, VA. with the two younger kids for a one day visit to see my Mom and sister/brother-in-law...probably last chance before Christmas. Mom is more of a wine drinker, but she likes beer ok, so, I'll taker her a sixer. Brother-in-law is from Trinidad, so I'm taking some ginger beer (non-alcoholic) to him that I made following a Trinidadian recipe. I'm also taking up a couple bottles of fermented ginger beer...we'll see what he thinks.

I decided to open a bottle of each of the ginger beers, regular and fermented, to see how they taste before I deliver them. This is the non-alcoholic. A bit sweet for me, but I think that's the style. I little more carbonation would be okay, but I didn't want bottle bombs and I had to pasteurized them. (New computer is confusing me...tried to rotate the photo...not how it came out. Argh.)
