I'm not on board with a lot of Belgian stuff. The guy who got me into brewing is a big fan. I've made a session Witbier that my girlfriend and I love, but I think it needs more flavor. Needs to be higher than 3.5% imo...

This is 9% and has a ton of different flavors going on. It’s not terrible, just more complex than I’m used to.

Edit: Here’s the description from Untappd—

Trois Pistoles has a dark brown color topped with a rich foam mousse.
Its slightly sweet taste is enhanced by accents of roasted malt, cocoa, ripe fruit and dark spices with a smooth finish like an old port wine.
Brewed with four selected malts and four exotic spices, Trois Pistoles beckons with a subtle sweetness that makes it surprisingly smooth and satisfying for a beer of such strength and complexity.

Way too complex for me at the moment! I've been into neipas for about 5 years strong but recently gotten into the lighter stuff. I think my Koslch that you tried is my favorite, but I made a Helles (first lager!) that is fantastic. Super excited about lagers. Brewing a Marzen on Sunday.

 

[wepeeler]

Awesome neipa. This brewery crushes it. One of the best spots in New England

A bland Hefe while waiting for my Pale Ale to reach pitching temp. Just over 4 hours and batch #130something is almost in the books.

That Kolsch was very good. I’ve kinda been into the German lagers lately myself. I’ve got 3 different styles kegged/tapped now with a couple more on my wishlist.

Coffee and reading fire updates for Santa Cruz.

That is a nice beer. I've had it many times with a grilled chicken Caesar salad at the Pattaconk in Chester, Connecticut. Always enjoyable. That reminds me, I think I decided to start drinking early today.

Lawnmower beer break

 

[pshankstar]

Who wouldn’t want to support the Lemurs and all the other creatures of Madagascar? If a beer has a Lemur on it my youngest approves because it’s her favorite animal!
I should mention it’s a Peach Kolsch.

H2O

Looks to be right up on HWY9 now. Getting better idea of the true nature of the fire today. The one by San Jose looks to be closing in. Brutal!

New one from Community in Dallas. Damn good! 1 will be saved for sure.

 

[davidabcd]

I'll be drinking one of the ones on the far left. HB triple

 

[pshankstar]

Some Other Half Freaky Friday beer. Water Balloon Fight Club. Never had the original version which I think is from Monkish.

 

[Tobor_8thMan]

My own Bass Ale as I want to kick the keg and then keg my Spotted Cow for another HBT member.

Yellow jacket killing beer. Bastids got me while mowing the lawn. They didn’t want to stay in their hole, now they are going to be there forever!

I had a disagreement with a nest for two days straight the other weekend. I thought we came to an understanding and then two weeks later Im sitting here and one just jarts into my forearm. It was like it had a memory.

Anyways. Beautiful dry summer day today. Almost fall

Yellow jacket killing beer

I was bottling and the Belgian Tripel aroma was too tempting for them. One came in and I think more were going to follow. I had to get the fermenting bucket outside ASAP and spray it down. Outside, they were starting to increase in numbers. I hosed a couple. Back inside, I stayed out of the perps way until it settled down and BugZooka-ed him.

I do not like wasps., bees, etc., at all.
