What are you drinking now?

Classic American Pilsner. It's one of the names given by the AHA to the fizzy yellow swill category.

Thanks. I'm always behind. I didn't want to ask another poster what a "cold IPA" was, just asking question after question.
My Uncle is a diehard pilsner fan.

Moose

Nice looking beer.
Moose is my cat's name. He'll probably want to be called Moose Juice now.

I'm also eternally behind. I brew what I enjoy and seldom buy commercial beer because I'm always working on a project or two in my brewery.

That said, I do try to keep up on the AHA categories because it provides a useful language with which to communicate with other brewers. They're good people doing good things, but I still reserve the right to poke fun of, ridicule, and do my very best to take the piss out of the AHA whenever possible. As my father was always keen to point out, "You have problems with authority."

Damn right I do.

Is it a smoked Scotch Ale? Putting aside the whole peated malt thing, I've always thought that the style, like porter, lends itself to properly smoked malt.

Classic American Pilsner. It's one of the names given by the AHA to the fizzy yellow swill category. It's the third name they've given the category, I think. Gordon Strong wants us to call it something else, now. I forget what. I've quit caring.

I've given up and I just call it CAP. Easy to type.

Unless you have to explain it every time!

Lol, no kidding!

 

[South Arm Brew]

Now HB Sixty Cent IPA

 

[Brewin’&Qin’]

Iron Hill Brewery And Restaurant in Hersey PA. A semi chain brewery. Tried this Lap Bar IPA. Also had a Philly Phavorite IPA which is not pictured.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

A very local brewery.

 

[camonick]

This is a very good Hefeweizen. Tastes very similar to mine. Brewed in Denver.

Edit: it was chunky when I got to the bottom.

 

[davidabcd]

very local

Is "very local" something one can walk to?
I need to get me one of those!

[camonick]

Pretty boring.

It would be a very long walk a few towns away, but my town has a brew pub and a “craft” brewery, that could be walkable. A third brewery just closed to relocate 5 days ago. Sounds like I live in Lushville! LOL

No, it’s not a smoked Scottish. It’s really in the “Scottish Export” style (14C). This is the description from the style guidelines-
Description
“A malt-focused, generally caramelly beer with perhaps a few esters and occasionally a butterscotch aftertaste. Hops only to balance and support the malt. The malt character can range from dry and grainy to rich, toasty, and caramelly, but is never roasty and especially never has a peat smoke character. Style Comparison: Similar character to a Wee Heavy, but much smaller.”

Bozone Amber. Bozeman MT is referred to locally as “the Bozone” or, because it’s growing almost exponentially, “Boze Angeles”.

 

[grampamark]

Another “fine Pilsner”?

 

[camonick]

Another “fine Pilsner”?

Barely.

OT
Had high hopes for this one, but it’s cloudy and has floaters in it too. Taste is ok… just expected a brite clean amber.

 

[Pianoman]

Yum Yum!

 

[pshankstar]

Thanks to @TheEagleRising for burner phone. It was a good night to have some heavily fruited sours.

 

[tdf]

Haven’t had Oberon in at least a decade. What a great beer.

 

[TwistedGray]

I'll have one with you, on draft in Gardiner.

We came to Ranger Smith's park back in Sept. 2015 and saw a bear...about a mile away in a pasture. It might have been the size of a pea. Today we were treated with this three-year old about a hundred feet of the road.

Love this place!!

Obligatory booze

 

[Bluekat]

Three great beers. This is what happens when I visit Wegmans.

 

[Softailrider]

Belgian Dark Strong Ale - Abbey Dubbel. Brewed St. Paddy’s Day.

Getting better by the day.

HB Wit

My kind of label!

 

[kingmatt]

HB West Coast Double IPA...pretty much at its peak right now.

 

[kingmatt]

Iron Hill Brewery And Restaurant in Hersey PA. A semi chain brewery. Tried this Lap Bar IPA. Also had a Philly Phavorite IPA which is not pictured.

You should have had a King's Gold!

 

[AlexKay]

HB Mexican lager. Super crisp, super clear, and some nice citrus fruity notes from Hydra hops.

 

[Rish]

Aldi beer. Not a bad Irish Red.

 

[Brewin’&Qin’]

Still in Hershey PA for conference. Stopped at Lancaster Brewing Co. in Hershey. This is Haze Farmer. Advertised as hazy with jam packed fresh hop aromas. Taste good but not very “hazy”.

 

[hopkincr]

Birthday drinks with the fam. Citra Citrus from 4 Noses Brewing - this is straight up a cross between grapefruit and orange juice (along with a Texas mule and a Shirley Temple).

[grampamark]

HB Blonde after a long day.
