Aldi PBP brewed by Octopi in WI under State of Brewing label. Like a slightly sweet peanut butter cup with a little bitterness on the back. Not bad at all for the price.
Day 38 of the IPA treadmill. There is no end to this, they are like counting stars in a distant galaxy, only to find there are billions of other galaxies! Tonight’s chug is another Hopisaurus of an IPA, Lagunitas’ Maximus Colossal IPA, 9% ABV.
I remember reviewing this beer some time ago, I either had it or another Green/Orange big IPA can mixed up with each other.
Very traditional IPA, just what you are expecting. Good flavor, head, this is a professionally brewed beer. Enjoy!

My first time serving a flight of my own beer: rice ale, pale ale, amber ale, and stout for my visiting brother. I just had the amber.

Better half surprised me with this. Cannot recall where she purchased but available in Michigan and very tasty.
Today is my Friday. Amazingly aided in explaining an internal audit that been sitting around for 10 years and just need to be done by next week.
I need this.
Another Vitamin Sea Anniversary Willett Barrel Stout

HB, English bitter with a massive tupelo honey addition at flameout. Tasty and very complex. And while making pork steaks for dinner.
Bottling done today, gear cleaned and put away. Time for a couple HB Kolsch on a rainy day.

Well I’m in the final turn of IPAFest 2024. If I’m counting correctly, we should deplete out on day 42, which is this upcoming Sunday. Should I go out and do some more IPA shopping? JUST KIDDING!!!
I’ve been hitting these IPAs day in and day out since January 1. Let me tell you, it really is an interesting experience. You really get dialed in to what makes a particular style when you focus specifically on it. After 42 days, probably over 60 total IPAs counting the multiple IPA days, it is a LOT of beer and a lot of hops, a lot of opinions on what you like and don’t like in an IPA.
If only speed-dating was this good…. 60 dates… we’d all be married to different spouses. Brings on a whole new meaning of Pint-Sized Wives!
I can hardly wait to begin StoutFest 2024 in March. Eh, me thinketh not!
Firestone Walker just keeps cranking out the great beers, but brewers, what’s with these wimpified short little cans? Aren’t these the same cans they sell Bud Light in? C’MON! 16 to 24 ounce cans for IPAs, PLEASE!!! These shorties don’t even fill a glass. Sissy can. SISSY CAN.
Cali Crusier is a 6.6% ABV “Juicy” West Coast IPA. Yes it is “Juicy” (Well, I think Juicy, still working on that one) and even a bit dank. I know what dank means, I’m not stupid. This is a great IPA, and just like everything else they do, you will enjoy! Chug!

Hb Czech pils through LUKR side pull tap and into a fancy a$$ glass, with smoked pork loin for dinner.
Genesee Honey Brown. A touch of malt and honey, a little sweet, 4.5%. Not a bad session beer ( but I'm only having one
).
).
Nitro cold brew earlier
My hop water
I'm not into IPA's but that sounds great, and grueling! Very cool!.
Sipping on a hard cider I brewed this past fall. Can't tell from the picture, but there's a hint of raspberry, added of course. Nice to wash down that Doppelbock. I mean the Doppelbock was fantastic but I need to taper off a little. ???

Haters gonna hate. Went with the glass instead of cans. Light struck from brewery, parking lot to car, deck
ok. One more. Too nice sitting out on the deck. One of my fav styles to brew before treehouse and trillium showed up

Things come up, so it looks like my IPA reviews are going to be pushed back a few days. Enjoy the game!
Didn't mean to insult you with the green glass
I'm joking.
Speaking of green glass, I noticed a lot more antique green glass in the more Northern US, Canada and continental Euro climates say 100 years ago. Maybe the less sun it was less of an issue. I’ve seen vintage Schlitz ads touting their dark brown glass.

This week's storms have passed, (2 tornadoes touched down less than 10 miles from my house on Wednesday), and now sunny, though chilly. Stout weather.

Bottling leftover of my Abbaye wheat graf with Galaxy flavoring hops. Medium mouth feel, a little bit of bubblegum and fruit. Interesting and pretty tasty.
Earlier today Fat Tuesday run to Treehouse

Stopped by for a 9.5 Portnoy north shore beef. Meh. I've had better even in Boston

Not the normal beer I’d gravitate towards, but I thought I’d give them a whirl. Pleasantly surprised at how well done and refreshing they are. He’s one heck of a creative brewer!

Since I’m cutting back on beer for a while, was stoked to find this single can at the nearest gas station. 1 month old!
Warrior, Chinook, Cascade, Centennial, Simcoe, Amarillo. Yes please!
