We made it to triple digits! At least it's not the 112 they were predicting a few days ago.

And so glad I got out of San Antonio as soon as I could!
Being super impatient…
HB Dunkel
Very promising.
Hoping the rain clouds in the distance come this way. We are in a severe drought and have only logged 1.5” of precipitation so far this year. Desperately need the moisture!!!

Before chicken stir fry for dinner, a little HM rice wine aperitif. A little sweet and tart, tasty, smooth and strong: a dangerous combination!
Want to
the Dunkel but the drought. Same here, mega drought. Into the HB Rye IPA again. Need to get some canned beers tomorrow. Bottles suck on this scooter thingy.

HB WCIPA with the classic combo: Simcoe, Citra, Mosaic...still great
HB IPA
The Mexican beer project is winding down, and finally I have a few beers which would be called craft beers in the US. It is remarkable however just how monolithic the Mexican beer market currently is. The brewers definitely have their drinkers figured out, most beers are just slight variations of the same thing.
Today, we have a rarity, a Mexican Amber Ale no less. Brewed by Cerveceria Artesanal de Sonora, in Hermosa, Sonora, Mexico, “Chicatar” is a 5.2% ABV Amber Ale with 32 IBU on the bitterness scale.
This beer reminds me a lot of some of my personal early Amber Ales. There is a slight sharpness to this beer which I attributed to some water issues and rectified later once I figured out that I couldn’t just brew with tap water and expect great results. My perception of that sharpness is gone by about gulp number four, so there is hope!
Otherwise, this has some similarities to other Amber Ales you might find in the States, Dales Pale Ale comes to mind, but Dales is perfection. This one isn’t Dales. Glad to see some variety coming out of Mexico, I suspect there’s a lot more brewing down there that doesn’t cross the border!

Pulled out a can of homebrew saison. 5 months old and really holding up well.
This one BE-134.
A bit of Panther Piss Bum Strength.
Marzen in a Weissbier glass
Assuming it was a proper Marzen, that would end me.
Looks like a promising German place though. The ones with pastel colors tend to serve the best food.

It's an improvement to see a different beer glass than that ****** standard. According to the American Brewers Association, we know only one glass style.

A shot of Four Roses Small Batch Select bourbon... It's pretty awesome!
After I left Bama in 1976 I don't think I ever deliberately drank sweet tea. I used to watch my mom dissolve at least a cup of sugar before she added tea bags to the pot to make a pitcher of tea.

I think my mom used 2 cups to a gallon. Over time, I’ve just naturally reduced the sugar in nearly everything. I don’t really want it. Tea is unsweetened and coffee black. Fake sweeteners are terrible. I just do without. It’s fine.

I haven't had the real deal but I can recommend this recipe. (you probably know it already)
https://beersmithrecipes.com/viewrecipe/12542
It was the first RIS I brewed when I got into all-grain brewing in 2013.
I have tried several others since and even with much more experience I haven't managed to brew anything as good as this again.
Must give it a re-brew, maybe with Denny's Favourite instead of US-05.

I've brewed a few oatmeal stouts with Denny's Favorite, but haven't tried it in an RIS.
I'm planning an imperial stout later this summer, will be using a recipe by @Hoochin'Fool.
Edit: using something close to this recipe.

Whoops, I must have dozed off before tapping to post.
It was in a long established German restaurant, at least hubby got his hefeweizen in a proper glass, and the food was very good.
A pint of my Five Points Best Bitter
Followed by my Erdinger clone only 4 left but another batch is carbonating
Construction and jack hammering at work. Time for a break.

We utilized a brand new thiolized yeast strain and mash hopped with high-oil Cascade to give it plenty of fuel for transformation. Citra, Amarillo, and Alora hops combine, creating notes of clementine, mango gummies, and sweet vanilla! Distant Lands is a Double IPA that charts a new trail through our own backyard. Pouring a beautiful hazy hue with a mountain of sticky foam atop the glass, wild tropical aromas fill the air.

Sometimes, a new world is just a degree away from the familiar, revealed by a small deviation from the norm
A nice cascading pour and wait on this this
This rendition of Moment of Clarity was carefully dosed with a hit of nitrogen and conditioned with coffee, chocolate, and dark amber maple syrup. It pours beautifully in the glass with a rich, mousse-like head and dense complexion. It exhibits strong maple and chocolate aromas on the nose and recalls chocolate-covered maple cream candies in the flavor. Though dense and flavor filled, this milk stout still maintains a certain fluffiness that makes it easy and pleasant to drink a big glass of. It is a wonderful and decadent treat that, for us, evokes a yearning for relaxed Sunday mornings with a pile of chocolate chip pancakes. Cans must remain cold. Enjoy!
