Yeah...need to push through a little pain and try walking. Pool isn't very convenient, but I can get to one. Also thinking about a gym. $100 to join and $10/month.

Gave in to a Diet Coke, though. I feel so dirty.
 
Went 4-1 sparring tonight and celebrating with a tall cool glass of water.

So ****ed.
 
Just got back from watching the game with some friends at B-Dubs where I had a Hoptical Illusion, a Lagunitas IPA, and a Shiner Bock. I didn't really have anything invested in the game, but I thought it was a pretty good game up until the last few minutes. Now home and sharing my one and only KBS with my brother because I am a super nice guy like that.

I've always heard good things about this beer. It's a little on the sweet side and has a lingering vinegar taste. Maybe I just got a bad bottle, but it's not something I'd go for again. View attachment 269437

My last bottle was like someone cut balsamic with acetone.

Nothing like when I had it on tap.

3 bottles left, all marked for cooking.

That is an accurate description. I saw on UNTAPPD someone described it as steak sauce which I also thought was accurate and it made me laugh. I'm glad I only had 1. I tried to finish it, but ended up pouring it down the drain. Now back to something I know will taste good. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1428382208.423851.jpg
 
Thinking of picking up a bottle of Chouffe Houblon Dobbelen IPA Tripel and cracking it open this evening. Anybody here ever tried it before? Worth buying?

I asked that same question in here and was told it was good. I bought a 4 pack and really enjoyed it. I've only bought it twice but I will buy it again.

Thanks. My local store only has it in 750ml bottles, but I think I'll get one of those and test it out!
 
Mug of coffee. This week is weird so far. I have been waking up feeling... awake. Usually I am grumpy and whiny and sort of petulant for an hour or so.

I wish I could describe this in a way that would do it justice. Great aroma and flavor, smooth body, thick creamy head... I could drink this every day and be quite happy.

Thank you for showing me how great home brew can be Mark. Amazing.

Glad you enjoyed it! My first batches of that beer were nothing near what it is now, so just keep tweaking your recipe and nail down the variables (fermentation temp being the most critical I think.) You'll get there! :mug:

I think there is a bad batch. Someone said the same, but I've had it a number of times and had it in December back in CA and it was delicious.

Take dog. There's no way I would walk like I do without my dog. I finally went for a nice walk yesterday morning. My ankle is still on fire and the guy says I should consider surgery. Surgery means no driving until the cast is off. No driving is impossible for me since I'm the only one in the house. Anyway, it was nice to get out. Bummed today's weather sucks because doing it everyday is pretty crucial.

Coffee. Horrible morning so coffee it is.
 
Coffee and OJ in the hospital with new baby Olivia. Mom and baby is healthy and Daddy couldn't be happier!

Congrats!


Full Throttle Blue Agave... slept like crap last night, first time in a long while going to bed without having a few drinks first.

Probably slept better than @bigmike99 though... :D
