Getting ready for the storm
Frosted Triple Shot Barrel Blend is an amplified version of Double Shot Barrel Blend, featuring one of our favorite seasonal house-roasted coffees, Frost, and a generous dose of freshly ground Madagascar vanilla beans. Pouring like liquid dark chocolate into the glass, the base beer shines with a balanced blend of baker’s chocolate, roasted coffee, and a hint of bourbon heat. With the addition of Frost, carrying well-rounded notes of dark chocolate and vanilla bean, along with the infusion of fresh vanilla bean, the beer becomes a wonderful showcase of roasty, creamy vanilla-bourbon goodness. Here at Tree House, we enjoy collaborating across different departments, often resulting in some of our most esteemed creations.

Wafflebanger—Breakfast Buffet is a rendition of Wafflebanger featuring amplified additions of maple syrup, fresh banana, and a hint of blueberry. The idea for this beer originally came from the wonderful blueberry-forward notes of Mosaic hops, and the liquid in this can pushes the idea further! Pouring like gold into your glass, it carries all the notes of your favorite breakfast confections with a big hit of juicy hoppiness. If it sounds unusual, it is, but to our delight, it works remarkably well. We hope that you enjoy this little number as much as we do!

Testing out the scope in case there's a clear window Monday. Even the weatherman is apologizing. We have 2 storm systems coming from the west starting Saturday. Cell phone pic.
No rush getting our above ground pool set up anytime soon, this is from this morning...
Drinking a LME Coopers lager with brew enhancer 3, more shelf time would probly make it more palatable but I got two fermenters of all grain bubbling away so need them bottles snappish.
Having both bathrooms remodeled this week. House is a mess, I've been holed up in the home office, getting stuff done while staying out of the workers' way. They're done for the day and gone. Time for a HB Exportbier.
Get on up to New England with that thing. My usual spot is getting 24" of snow. May be insanity but clear skies
After walking around in the crawl space preparing what I could for the forecasted flood, I feel like I deserve this HB Grodziski. Yes I am short.

Add a little bit of hill elevation and this is what you get at 38°. Might get thunder too
Not sure I'll head north with all the snow. It's been warmer up there with sun. Mud season and lots of snow

Homebrewed (clone of) Dragon's Milk, brewed back in December, bottled early January, and tasting fantastic already!!! Is it misleading to tell my doctor that I'm only having ONE beer most nights, even tho this one came out to 12% abv? 
Short pour of HB Fizzy Yellow Lager. Keg kicked.
Yeah, Northern "spring" really is something. On the plus side it seems this last bout of wintery weather is just gonna last for a few days more then warmer weather is rolling in...
Kombucha and salad while waiting for the grandson to get out of school. Taking afternoons off work. Will check pool temp when we get home...

Zappa Kellerbier.
Definitely no bragging rights on the eclipse. Looking like we'll be rained out.You have bragging rights about your temps, but not for long.
@pshankstar look what showed up at our richy hippy dippy grocery store. I have to stay diligent. I know Equilibrium will show up time to time. Also picked up a nice looking imperial stout.
Great mouth feel but not a hop bomb. Oh, pool was 76. 2 degrees below my minimum.
(Ha)
First grill of the year. Tanks on fumes so going with burgers
Doing chicken on charcoal myself. My nemesis. Anything red I have down... wife's demanded this so might be a McDonald's night???
Next IPA...
Fizzy yellow homebrew. Because after all I did mow the lawn this afternoon.
Brut IPA actually. Won't quite clear for some reason - chill haze maybe? Who knows? And a bit overcarbed 'cuz I like it that way. But hey, like I said, I just mowed the lawn.

Mexican Cake clone. Sweet, chocolate, cinnamon, habanero, very tasty. Hope I can replicate it!
Chicken was a hit. Score one for papa!
Time to chill with some good music and this awfully thick goodness.

HB Amber Ale.
Haha! It cost me $120. 3 bottles of Westvleteren12, the glass and shipping. That was 8'ish years ago?

$58/beer and $51 for the glass and unknown shipping?!? What I would do is brew the clone which is pretty simple. Take a snapshot of the glass in high res and go to Zazzle and get a glass made with that jpg. YouTube has videos on how to do the gold leafing around the rim.

Cost me over $1000* but I got 12 bottles and 2 glasses.
* Most of that cost was two airline tickets from LAX to London, and several train rides, including travel under the channel and into Belgium. I still have one bottle left, being saved for the right occasion.
I brewed the clone a couple times. Spitting image if not better. Sounds like now is the time brother!
Reminds me I have to bottle/wax my quad this coming week. I wanted to brew/age a barleywine but haven't picked a recipe yet. Time flys...
