HB Chocolate Milk Stout. Leftover from yesterday's growler, so it's a bit flat.
Just tapped the Warbler Sugar Can Wheat … Delicious!!

I hadn’t been home from work for more than 5 minutes and my pager went off for a mutual aid grass fire.
Home now and chugging a quick thirst quencher to wash down the smoke and dust.
Heavy fog and dew this morning and light rain off and on all day so no harvesting. We did get the combine with mechanical issues fixed, however. After several calls to the nearest Case/IH dealer’s resident combine guru, to confirm that our proposed method of repair was viable, he said ”…go for it. It will last as long as it lasts”. When it dries out, we’ll see.

HB Czech Pils
Carib Brewing Pineapple Belgian triple, 9.9%. Not too much pineapple, nice balance, not boozy at all. I like it!
Homebrew Schwarzbier while bottling up a few.
He was a cutie. So sorry for your loss.
Carib Mackeson milk stout. Very tasty.
Got this from a farmer while I was at his place filling his bulk fuel tanks this afternoon. Boy was it hard driving around knowing it was in my lunchbox!! I was a good boy and waited until I got home.

I’ve been reading these pages regarding the merits of Kirin Ichiban and Coors Banquet. You know, I’ve had both of these before but never back-to-back. Quick trip down to the booze shop and we’re in business.
Both of these beers taste very similar. Kirin comes in a touch darker, but both have identical medium-high carbonation, lack of head, lack of lacing, medium body, low IBU’s, maybe 15 or so and both 5% ABV. This must be what most non-beer snobs drink, both are pretty dialed in.
We all know Coors is an adjunct lager, and uses a specialty-grown, proprietary grain. I wasn’t aware that the Kirin was 100% “First Press” malt, whatever that is. Coors uses Rocky Mountain water. Their flavor profiles are so similar that I couldn’t have told you that one had an adjunct or the other didn’t. The primary difference I think comes from the different hops I am assuming each recipe uses. Other than that, pretty darn similar.
These beers are big enough and flavorful to stand on their own, or better yet, drink with a Saturday night hamburger dinner. Sorry, Kirin, I still would prefer a drier Asahi with my Sushi, but I’d really enjoy your Ichiban with that same honorable hamburger dinner as the Coors, or stand-alone it would be fine. Both are exceptionally quaffable, traditional, normal, stand-up, “making Thunderbirds”, just what you’d expect beers. Your beer-guzzling Uncle would enjoy these.

I find beer easier to drink than water. Water? Eck…!
Weather and machinery cooperated today so it was a good day.
Brought some of these home from the city. Pretty good lawnmower beer. Or, in this case, wheat harvesting beer.
