[Channel66]

DAMN! If you made that I am very impressed and jealous

Drinking a fixed gear american red ale from lakefront. First beer I am not so fond of by them. Pretty bland, too bitter and too dry IMO

Of course I made it, I'm not going to make my 'bout to pop wife stand over a hot stove.

For the record I made the beer too.

I didnt think that would be the case. That just looked too good to be homemade but more props to you sir!

A couple more episodes from season 2 of American Horror Story with some breakfast beers. I hate cleaning and somehow by cleaning made a bigger mess. Go figure.

 

[Remmy]

Some midnight maple wheat. With filet mignon, hassleback potato, asparagus, and a portobello mushroom sauce.

Oh hells ya.

I'd eat 3 of those plates. Silly Euros. :fro: Post-workout snack!

Well thank you. I try my best to pretend I know what I'm doing in the kitchen.

Keep pretending then man, it looks to be working! Fake it till you make it

 

[maing07]

[finsfan]

Well you obviously didn't cook the plates low and slow enough. Maybe you should marinate them in beer for a bit first.

 

[Channel66]

Hahaha

You should get their regulars, Jai Alai, Maduro, Hotter Than Helles and maybe Florida Cracker (maybe not, the name might sink sales). All of those are really good. You might also get Tocobaga and some of their seasonal regulars (12oz), Cubano Espresso, Humidor Jai Alai, White Oak Jai Alai, and a few others. It wouldn't suprise me if you found some 750's up their soon, the owner is good friends with someone up there, a distributor or big bar owner that helped them out when they started up, that's why they've been up there for so long.

Awesome thanks for the info man. Ill definitely be keeping an eye out for em. Just got home from gym. After a killer workout and a couple brews i hope ill be able to pass out at a normal hour tonight. Homeland on demand and some jai alai sounds like a great way to spend the rest of the night.

Cheers!

Joy,joy,I twisted my ankel while walking the dog. Swollen but I don't think i broke anything.
Icing it down and having a HB porter, I'll see what it looks like in the morning.

Holy $hit! Damn man thats gnarly! You mightve been better off breaking it than with a sprain that bad! I hope it looks worse than it is and you have a quick recovery. Keep your beer on it between sips.

Yikes! Hope that isn't as bad as it looks. Good luck.

I liked it - definitely worth one try. I'd recommend doing a side-by-side with Golden Monkey so you can see the effects of the barrels.


Having water ... bad headache set in this afternoon and just doesn't want to go away.

Haha, if I didn't do a growler, you were going to get one of these from me.

I think the picture makes it look worse, i can walk on relatively pain free, in the morning it may be a different story.
More porter and a little Jameson on the side.

 

[DrunkleJon]

yeah careful on the first stand up tomorrow morning. Put a cold beer on it and be ginger after long rests.

 

[Channel66]

Went from the midnight maple to a bit of this. Haven't had one in awhile. When I first started kegging we had a keg of this on tap all the time for the wife.

 

[nukebrewer]

This really isn't half bad. There is a light toastiness from the granola and the hop character, while subdued, is very pleasant with your typical piney/dank American hop character to it. Finishes semi-sweet but dry enough to accentuate the bitterness.

Question for group. Are Goose Island's Lolita, Juliet and Gillian worth the steep price tag? We just got some in the store today, but they are $19, $25 and $30 respectively. I'd like to try them, but it's hard to justify in the name of simply trying new beer. I'd like to have a relatively good assurance that they are good first.
