It's a 1L 4cylinder turbo.
The kei suv behind it is a 600cc 3cyl turbo (AWD, too).
What are you drinking now?

Ok, thanks. I only saw three of the plug wires. I also thought the Kei was a Suzuki Samaria. Thank you for the clarity.

Kei translates to "light automobile" in Japanese, and they are usually powered by 600cc motors. This one, however, has a big 1L motor from Nissan (lol @ big). Interestingly enough it makes about 75hp, and the suv behind it makes low 60s. That extra cylinder in the Figaro isn't adding much, ha ha.
Session Hazy IPA which was really good with my wife having a canned cocktail.
Then a Ghost Note which will be released tomorrow.
It was a free pour and pretty tasty!

BB OBB aged stout. Haven't had one in a while. Delicious: oak, touch of dark fruit, spice, and coconut, 11%.
Taste of Chinese rice wine after pressing and getting in the fridge to settle. Two kilos of rice made about a gallon. Sweet, a little less tart than it was a couple of weeks ago. I like it.
I’ve had plenty of 805’s here, but this is my first time with my new drinking buddy. Important texts have been exchanged all day and the family consensus is his name is Growler! Beer and big cat related!
Now the real question is why three daughters, two of which are 20-somethings and one remarkably a 30-something would decide I needed, and then purchase me a Lion drinking buddy for my birthday. Maybe it’s the Leo birthday? They must be telling me to get a life!
I thought Lowenbrau; I thought Brewster; I thought Half-Pint; Even Buzz was considered. All felt that Growler was his name and so it is!
Oh, the 805 – it’s great too. Cheers!

Tropical. Hot and humid. This sounds refreshing

IDK if it's just because it's hot or I'm getting older and higher octane brews are harder on me, but these are tasting pretty good.
HB Altbier. Chilly night, brought out the fire.
Friday!
Morning coffee.
Picking up yet another IPA attempt. IDk what happened with my last. Oxidized in the fermenter... completely brown..?? This PA is pretty good.
Hanging around southern NH.
Visited a veteran run microbrewery. I'd say meh. Altho one keg was just changed. Seemed a little off. Pretty much a farm
Then some good lagers. Hanging in the hemlock and oaks. Heirloom lager and dunkel
Wavy windows

Festbiers are arriving! Yes, that hallowed time of year will soon be upon us, the BEER SEASON. I can only speak for myself, but I suspect many other beer enthusiasts out there cherish the September-October time each year as much. Did I say October? I meant OKTOBER!!! Yes!!!
Weinstephaner, IMHO the most correct, right-on and perfect brewer in the world has these nifty 500 ml bottles on the shelfs now. Hey, two of them fit my 1L Maßkrug! (not to be confused with that orangy stuff some other brewers sell in the States....) I love it!
Paulaner is the creator of the current “Festbier” and most Bavarian brewers more or less have produced Festbiers similar enough. While not one of the approved Oktoberfest Munich producers, Weihenstephaner nonetheless produces a fine Festbier. This one clocks in at 5.8% ABV, just enough to keep the party going all night without going Bluto. Luckily I can keep pace without filling up, the Beermeister32 internal capacity for several Maßkrugs borders on astonishing. Prost!

HB amber ale w/Zappa hops. Those Neomexicanus hops give it a little earthy/dankness. I can see why some brewers like to use them in IPAs.

Modelo while waiting for the end of the boil. Brewing a Mosaic SMaSH.
The big brown truck stopped by this afternoon and dropped off a really nice care package from @pshankstar. A nice assortment of beers, some HM limoncillo and hard lemonade, home-roasted coffee, and candy to clear my palate between drinks. 
Thanks for the awesome goodies!

Brandy sour with hm limoncello. 2 parts brandy, 1 part limoncello, 1/2 part lemon juice. Tasty but should have skipped the lemon juice.

21st century problems. Woke up late so brewing in the heat of the day, forget to get Calcium Chloride so chemistry is off for this IPA, for some reason my mash temp is way low and I'm watching the recording of the USA women VB getting their A$$e$ handed to them but only in the 2nd set. Hope things get better after cracking open this goodness.
it doesn't get better.
That reminds me of my Loan Pint Yellow Rose clones I used to do. Mosaic SMaSH. By chance my work buddy who got me into brewing, yesterday, said it was one of the best I've ever made when we were chatting about about brewing with my 18yr old trainee. Gee, now if I could remember how I did that?
Poor kid, he hears nothing but brewing beer, how our factory might be lucky to be around in 5yrs, how much exempts are $hitholes and early retirement in-between work garbage!
