What are you drinking now?

Relaxing with a tall boy of Foggy Geezer. My wife spotted the can and said that's what she should call me at 7AM.

"Death by Antelope" hazy DIPA by Disruption is Brewing.

This seems to be part of a collaboration range of "Death by [stuff]", I've had "Death by Steamroller" before.

This was fresh into my local bottle shop yesterday, and was a touch green, though still enjoyable.

Very tasty hefeweissbier

I love me some Treehouse Seedling. Both of these were winners

Seedling Whole Cone
Seedling Whole Cone is a dry-hopped lager brewed with a select Chinook and Simcoe hops blend. Beginning with whole cone Chinook in the lauter tun and continuing through the dry hop, Seedling is oozing with American hop character. It pours a golden yellow color into your glass and carries rich, fresh hop notes of tangerine and pine on top of a gentle, sweet malt base. The body is smooth and easy-drinking, making this gem a pleasure to drink, time and time again. Enjoy!
=============================
Stick your nose into a box of cracker jacks and inhale. That's the aroma
Hold on to Sunshine Barrel Blend Stout

Brewed with Pale and Chocolate malts, lactose, coffee, cacao, and peanuts, it exhibits notes of rich milk chocolate, dark brown sugar, creamy espresso, and chocolate-covered peanut butter cups. A thread of stout previously aged in bourbon barrels adds notes of oaky spice and sweet aromas of Madagascar vanilla. These select barrels from various producers held the beer for 1-3 years, the final curation amplifying its younger counterpart’s luxurious and creamy qualities. Hold On To Sunshine Barrel Blend is a decadent treat that won’t overwhelm you with heaviness yet is loaded with delicious bold flavors that express themselves as it warms.

Finished this bottle of mead started 10/02/2020. This turned out tasty after a not so great start. Still have 8, so we'll see how they progress. Time takes care of a lot of issues!

Cool glass.

 

[Rich_O]

A modern Manchester classic

Interestingly this has 2023 hand selected Mosaic from Coleman Hops

Pungent for a low ABV beer, getting that perfect balance (in my mind at least) of mango/dank/onion/garlic/ from the Mosaic (also has Citra & Centennial)

Cranberry margarita.

 

[Beermeister32]

I’ve been dying for a beer all week. All done with my cold, done with my anti-biotics, and getting thirsty, REALLY thirsty! Time for some Weihenstephaner Pilsner! NOW THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT!

I’m not sure what the official malt and hop bills are, but they are indeed magic. I’ve brewed some very similar Pilsners with just 100% Weyermann Barke Pilsner Malt and Hallertau Mittlefruh hops. That’s it! What more do you need in life!

Weihenstephaner, since 1040! Prost!

Homebrew. Blonde ale. Golden / but wanting to Amber ale. A little hoppy, but tasteful.

[BongoYodeler]

First beer I've had all week, and it's a good one. Loyal to the Soil, a 10.4% DDH tipa from Monkish. Hopped with Motueka, Necatron, and Krush hops. So damned smooth, drinks like a 6% ipa.

Hb neipa... what a week, still gotta go in to work tomorrow.

 

[Bramling Cross]

Sorry I haven't been around very much lately. My folks back in Oregon are not doing too good and I haven't been in the best mood. I've learned not to drink when I'm not in a good mood, so you haven't been seeing much of me lately.

Nevertheless, today was a pretty good day and I escaped work rather early, so I enjoyed the sunshine and a few pints.

My latest ordinary bitter. The loss of both of my LHBS in November means that I'm now dealing with an LHBS that simply doesn't sell much UK yeast, so I was lucky to grab some Ringwood. I've gotta say, I'm very pleased with Ringwood's performance. It's a lot better than I remember--of course a lot has changed since then.

Here's this year's batch of UK brown. I made a special batch of (what I'm calling) Invert #2.5 for this batch. It helped a lot. It pushes the color more that #2, but steers clear of #3/porter flavors, and it adds a bit of nuttiness. I burned my tongue to a crisp making that batch of invert. Totally worth it!

And here's the big American Stout that I made in, er, September? It's a solid reminder of why I don't brew above 1.050 much anymore. It's a nice ale, but it's plugging up one of the serving slots in my fridge. I'll be bummed when it finally kicks, but I won't miss it.

As light beers go, not bad. But I'm from Jersey and have drank more than my share of Yuengling; mostly Black & Tan.

I've seen this several times on HBT and was always intrigued. It's not available anywhere near me so I was really excited to see it in my Secret Santa package! This is malty, kinda sweet and tart, nice cherry flavors, subtle spices from the Belgian yeast, 11%. This is a great beer that I may not get a chance to try again and it's delicious. Thanks @Brew_Dude41 !

Glad to see you back! Good looking beers!

Good to see you back, Bram! I was getting concerned that maybe you ran off to the circus or joined the French Foreign Legion or something.

I'm sorry to hear about your parents. I'll think good thoughts for you all.

lol, the circus is more likely, although the French Foreign Legion does have fetching hats...

Thank you

I remember it being so much better on tap 25 years ago but still enjoy a 6 pack ever year out here. Glad you enjoyed!

 

[kstater1]

My first homebrew in 10 years. Had a morebeer package get lost by FedEx, so stopped by local home brew store on a whim. 85% pale malt 15% crisp amber. Grabbed the crisp amber, having been 10 years not realizing wasn't the crystal was wanting for an Amber ale. Cascade hops. Kind of a mistake hybrid American/english pale ale. Glad I did, turned out tasting good, and made a ton of mistakes on brew day. Glad made the mistakes on a throw away recipe before got the ones planning to do from morebeer order. Put on CO2 today but had to grab one just for the taste

This one is more of a “What Are You Drinking Out Of?” post.

Years ago after my grandfather had passed away and my grandmother moved in to my parents place, I acquired a set of beer glasses that were going to go away if I didn’t want them. They were my grandfathers, but were still in the original box and probably never used.

With my current move I rediscovered the box and I’ve decided to actually use them.

They are Coors glasses with an old interlocking A and C logo and A Coors signature. I’m sure these were some promotional product or giveaway with saved up proof of purchase.

They are hexagonal but have an almost faux wood texture to them. The stem is a little chunky but also hexagonal and sturdy. The glass will also produce a clear tone when you run your wet finger around the rim!

I’m guessing it’s from sometime in the 60’s. Anyone have any better idea?

My fridge is currently out of the Banquet Beer from Golden Colorado, so Chico’s finest will have to do for the inaugural beer.

I think I need to find some of the stubby bottles of Coors and recreate some ad from the 60’s!

I have one of those. I wasn’t sure what it was either. Its made to look old I guess, but not really that old. I’ve seen glasses like it for sale at Reading China and Glass. I also have a couple classic styled martini glasses I found at Goodwill that I thought were very old but really aren’t.
