I'm having a Blue Moon (without the fruit). The local grocery is not what I'd call upscale. In fact, they still have fall weather beers in the cooler. Like Pumpkin spice ales and Oktoberfest beers. It's like getting a Whitman's sampler as a birthday present, only it's covered with Christmas cellophane. Or maybe the beer truck belongs to a time traveler. OR this grocery chain got stuck with a massive bad purchase. Belgian white is ok, it doesn't make me belch. But these beer-recycling cheapskates didn't have Voo Doo Ranger, which is what I wanted.
they still have fall beers here. Ive given up on anything craft here as nothing stands out that says drink me. maybe summer beers will be ok. ive not visited a more special store lately .. no money for that..
I had a Helles Lager by Southern Barrell brewing this afternoon, it was probably the best i've had of the style.
So, hey, I'm back already! (Sure, 2 weeks is a bit of a stretch, but comparatively speaking, it's quick for me since late last year.) ANYway... I'mma get started (then I'll catch up on posts since last time). Beer #1: (Alc. 6%) (Robinsons - Trooper Hallowed) Smell - Slightly wet hay and faint raisins rest in a waft of malty farmhouse wind, a frail crackery-bread body underneath. Taste - Slightly wet hay and faint raisins rest in a waft of malty farmhouse wind. A frail crackery-bread body underneath. Overall, this is a very even-tempered brew. Nothing jabs at you and it's exceedingly easy to drink. Would be great at a concert. (And yes, it literally tastes almost exactly the same as it smells!) And, for the pic... well... How could I not use this one for this beer?!?
Heya, Shaman! Things are going pretty well, thanks! And you? Also, I hear ya. Tastes do shift, for sure... but it's also the quality. Like, some mass produced IPAs would be like pisswater, while others can be like a juicy heaven in your mouth. But I've also found myself, willingly, purchasing sour session brews for drinking during D&D. A week ago I had Insetto, by Stillwater (described as "Dry hopped sour ale with Italian plum"). It was ok, but I'm not planning on getting it again. (Nevermind the fact I almost never buy a beer more than once.) So yeah, you never know!
Real men don't drink Budweiser. They drink rocks and sticks with fermented goat shit! Or, maybe your choice of beer doesn't reflect the intensity of your gender. (But still, good luck with that...)
Wait... I thought the best starts with "b"! Like... boobs, beer, bud, bacon, burgers, boobs, beer, and bacon!
Oooh, they look interesting according to their site! You definitely have to let us know what their offerings... um... offer. Yeah!
When I worked in the middle east my coworkers lamented the "Three Bs". Beer, Bacon and Babes. It just wasn't happening there.
my lady blew me off.. Ida walked because the hosts was expecting us . jackie made some good foods tonight but Ima stay in and drink shitty beers..
