I thought what was so amazing about that beer is how it DIDNT have any alcohol burn. Last years I think was better. But still, damn good beer.


Agree with every part of this.

Off Color Apex Predator. No pic. Tired.
 
Starbucks medium americano...

I can just feel the Christmas in this cup. Must be Christmas since its after thanksgiving.... Oh wait, it starts after Halloween now.

On travel. $69 worth of per diem. Might be taking a trip to the Arlington World of Beer later tonight. Flight back isn't til 10PM.
 

Coffee is not evil! Coffee is awesome. Do not make fun of... whaaa? Its the red cup of dooooommmmm!

Was going to add in the bit about the starbucks logo being come up with first and the we will either sell coffee or do mermaid porn video but I am hesitant to search for it at work. Even with safesearch on.

Christmas started before Halloween this year. I saw candy canes being on the shelves the Friday before halloween. Blasphemy. They already have far surpassed the best holiday of them all Turkey-day, now they are trying to kill off prank/candy-day! Those bastards.

Coffee. No weird flavors, just coffee flavored. As usual. In a ceramic cup because I am not a heathen. Pinky out.
 
Full Throttle... Gotta pack for hunting trip today, leaving tomorrow after work. Wouldn't be so bad but have to bring all my cold weather gear, which sucks.

Bought a king size bed set yesterday... It'll be delivered Saturday. Pretty stoked for that.
 
California king?? Some day. Can't imagine what it would be like to sleep without having legs hang off the edge of the bed.

You just got a puppy, sooner or later you may have kids. Long gone will be the day you can sleep in any size bed comfortably. I remember fondly what the feel of sleeping through the night under covers and not teetering on the very edge of the mattress. I'll remember what it was like not fearing sleeping on my left side without the possibility of getting kicked in the face by a baby foot or sleeping nestled between dog buns.

Bottled yesterday. For sale today. I think I know what I'm doing after work.
What ya think @beermeduffman ?
 
Sounds like an awesome way to end the day! Maybe to go with some nice toasted marshmallows

I haven't had the imperial yet, this may be their first batch as far as I know. The regular sponge candy stout is funking gorgeous. Sweet, chocolate, dry.. if there isn't a limit (can't imagine there would be) I'll definitely be stocking a few.
 
Sponge candy? Had to look it up, still doesn't sound appetizing.

I often forget a lot of people don't know what sponge candy is. It is something we grow up with around here. Usually a treat that your grandparents have a secret stash of somewhere. A nice dark chocolate with the toffee.. not sure why it would sound unappetizing. You can't take a quick bite though, may hurt yourself but if you let it sit in your mouth for a few moments it will just melt.

I'll have to start adding some to trades/bifs.

Water. At work sick sucks.
 
Drinking a coke.

Anyone have experience using Carastan? I'm looking to make a red ale, and I believe it's what's used in Rogue St Rogue and OB Gordon. I love the flavor but want a little drier in my beer. I'm trying to nail down what crystal malt gives that flavor.

You can use english malts like Maris otter, Victory, munich to keep it dryer and give it the redish/roastiness you are looking for.

Munich, victory, and a little (like 2oz) of special b is what I use in my red IPA to get a nice color.

On the espresso. Let's get today over with.
 
Ugh. Today just got spectacular. Is it time to go home from work yet? There is a chance that I may get fired now. And I didn't do anything wrong. I kind of doubt it will happen because it would make things even worse, but there is a chance due to all of the ultimatums that have been thrown around by management recently. I got hassled while on my lunch break.
 
Lots of water. Went out with the guys last night and had entirely too much BMC and fireball while playing pool. I hate that fireball is their go to for shots.

Serves you right for hanging out with teenagers. Nobody else in their right mind would do BMC and Fireball. That's a high school thing.
