Many may not like Cooper’s but I have had many a success. Now I just use it as a general guideline recipe to start with. This is a Cooper’s Real Ale, 6.13% ABV. This brew is much like a Rickard’s Red. Tastes so yummy in a frosty mug!

I made some Tepache with just pineapple, piloncillo sugar and small amount of water;
No yeast added, wild ferment for five days, then "blended in the glass" with about 2/3 hard cider from last season. Not bad, somewhat funky, but interesting and I think I'll do it again.
Already started a Tepache "solara" by adding about 1 cup of frozen pineapple and 1 cup piloncillo sugar/water mixture that wouldn't fit in the first batch and I kept in the freezer. After this run, I'm going to add some canned pineapple juice to the jar and see what happens.
 
A bit off-topic, @PianoMan but what is this amazing space game you're playing? Looks like a great way to escape the sham drudgery of Earth every so often!

You are correct. This is Elite Dangerous with the Horizons upgrade. Got it in 2015 and primarily an Explorer. Got back into it for obvious reasons. It has 400,000,000 systems mapped ready to explore. There's also fighting/trading. They're coming out with a Legs upgrade in 2021....FPS?? Youtube it. Zillions of videos. Its a beautiful game for sure.

My wife is gonna make a batch soon.
 
Thanks @PianoMan I'll be sure to check it out! *EDIT no Mac support anymore...sigh.

Trois Pistoles from Unibroue, in Quebec. It's an old favourite of mine, and at one time I had all their 'recommended' glasses for each style of beery goodness. I'm making do for my lack of a goblet-style glass with my old standby. :D

It's frothy like a Belgian, bit of a wine cask overtone and easy-drinking for how strong it is.

my daughter had a 10U softball doubleheader this morning. Not a cloud in the sky and the solstice so the sun was so hot! It was also a walk parade. First year the girls are pitching and not much control. My daughter has been enjoying it though!

Cool beer in the cold air conditioning now!
 
HB Porter from @CaddyWampus tonight after supper. Flavor is bold and up front. One of those beers that let's you know it's the boss. Chocolate and coffee with a vanilla finish maybe. Whatever it is it's good. Using it for medical purposes as the chicken and Mexican rice was a little spicy tonight.
