Well balanced rye IPA. The rye blends with the tropical hop notes. thanks @Nagorg

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

How’d you get a Grodz that clear? Mine are always very cloudy, I’ve always assumed from all the wheat.

It should be lagered for some time.

My wife and I got a rare chance at a childless day trip to Asheville, NC today to meet some friends that are passing through.

We got there early so we went to Burial Beer’s main production facility and tap room, Forestry Camp. It’s an old couple of buildings that housed the CCP back in the 30s while the Blue Ridge Parkway was being built. Some pretty cool history to go along with some good beer and food.

Wildflower Honey Saison

Spontaneous Fermented Saison

Seasoned Skillet Stout coming in at 15% aged in Buffalo Trace barrels.

One of the teachers I work with gave me a bottle of her first attempt at mead. She insisted I try it, even though it was just bottled a few days ago. It tastes pretty good, but needs a lot more age. Obviously.

 

[BongoYodeler]

Moving on. Deep fridge-pull.

Most of my family has passed on well known dates. My Grandpa Bum, dad's side, passed during this weekend in 1990. A WWII vet fighting on the ground mostly in the Pacific. He was a farmer and loving caring soul. Hated every minute of it, despised is probably a better word. Knowing what would come, though, if tyranny won out was what he fought for. To those who hate war but fought anyway.

On a lighter note, my proof of concept for viewing the sun worked out and deserves a beer!

Is that a 12 inch or 10 ? I have not had my scopes out since last summer. Just of of 60 and can't tolerate the cold anymore. Got rid of my 10 inch Orion reflector then last year got rid of my 8 inch Celestron sct..just too heavy now. Still have a 6 inch sct, 6 inch reflector and 4 inch mak-cass. Meade LX85 mount which I'm not fond of. I miss my Celestron ASGT. It was getting old but always spot on.

It's a Celestron 11in. I had a 10in Mead but as you said was heavy. This is amazingly light. Have no issues placing the tube on the tripod. The biggest issue with me is I can't stay up late anymore hence the sun interest.

OT, coffee getting ready to smoke a pork shoulder.

Last brewpub I’ll be visiting in Reykjavik. Session IPA.

 

[hopkincr]

Amber Ale followed by an Icelandic Hot Dog. Interesting, to say the least.

Might wanna stay up tonight. I haven't followed it but there's a rare chance of a meteor breaking up big time as it passes tonight.

OT: coffee in my big fatty

I’ll be landing in NC tomorrow around noon local time.

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

4hr check. Everytime the wife leaves on trips, dogs are all out of wack. Last couple nights they're restless... ergo, need beer.

I was going to mention @Section1 the Celestron 11in is just overkill. Hard to see deep space objects anymore in town and I don't really do long exposure astrophotography, which is what these big guys are designed for. Having a smaller 6in for just solar system photography/viewing would be a much better option. But one never knows, once all the water runs out in the west, maybe I'll get some nice cheep land for an observatory.

Nice. Sky cannon ! I also have a 4 inch celestron refractor just for the moon mostly, such sharp images. I've mostly had refractors and reflectors my whole life but got those sct over the last 10 year's. For some reason no matter how sharp my star test, the sct's are just not as sharp to me as reflectors, refractors and Mak-Cass.

 

[Dgallo]

Local brewery putting out some great hoppy offerings! The Warbler Brewery in Delmar, NY (a 2 minute bike ride lol) Oh and Ribs. We love Ribs!

Roasting beer.

 

[grampamark]

Short pour of Irish Red after a morning of shooting gophers with my 7 yo grandson, who’s staying with us for a week.

We don’t hunt gophers, we just shoot them. We’re overrun with the little bastards. For some reason, the usual number of predators (foxes and coyotes, mostly) have been conspicuously absent the last few years. Since the gestation period of gophers is something like twelve days (I kid, but it seems that short) they multiply quite rapidly.
