Pueblo Vida Microburst Pale Ale
32oz growler of Modern Times Night Tides DIPA. Phenomenal.
Firestone Walker Parabola 2017. I have heard complaints since this was brewed by Boulevard instead of Firestone but it was still great if slightly simple. Loads of cherry, chocolate, some vanilla all drizzled in a bourbon syrup.

Went to Greenbush yesterday (Sawyer Michigan). Beer was great, barbecue was off the hook. Would go again 10/10. Also did Haystack and Watermark.

Just had a pour of Old Forester 1920 Probibition. On par (quality and depth) flavor and body wise with the EH Taylor. Definitely gonna keep this in stock.

Outstanding post! #rep-arations. If you're ever in the Bay Area food and drink are on me.

Will need to try virtue. Just cider?

Mostly....tons of barrel aged. Nothing like the main stream ciders.



Founded by....."Gregory Hall founded Virtue Cider in 2011. He is known for his 20-year tenure as brewmaster at the Goose Island Beer Company, having won 14 consecutive Great American Beer Festival medals and pioneered bourbon barrel-aged beer with Bourbon County Stout. In the spring of 2011, Hall left Goose Island and embarked on a two-month pilgrimage to study the craft of cider, touring and tasting at top cidermakers in England and France. He brought his extensive experience and innovative style to launch Virtue Cider. "

Not a damn thing, because Whole Foods didn't open their beer bar in the store today due to it not being safe for employees to get there. What could be safer than getting me some beer SO I DON'T LOSE MY F*CKING MIND HERE AT THE OFFICE

Man, I really wanted to kill an hour with beer

Repairman never got to my place until 7:30; the whole AC and heater are f*cked, so it's gonna be another chilly night. Started with a generic cheap single coffee porter that was forgettable, then my buddy's home brew barleywine, which was fantastic. Now I'm wearing a bourbon coat to bed hoping that the heater will work by the time I get home tomorrow as an hour won't be enough time to build a beer coat.

For some good news: I can get a growler of Canadian Breakfast Stout filled for $20

That is good news. I am still pissed at Founder for only selling 750ml bottles here for $26 while Canada got 12oz bottles at about $6 a bottle or $24ish a 4 pack. Such bullshit

The problem is it's at the Central Market way on the other side of Austin...I don't understand Founder's distribution at all. Some people near Michigan can't get KBS and it's ubiquitous elsewhere.

I instead got Sumatra Brown Ale and a growler of Big Lebarrelski, an imperial stout aged in Woodford barrels with coffee and lactose. Damn damn good stuff.

Sounds damn good.

Currently contemplating my next whisky purchase and sipping on some Old Forester 100. Not a bad whisky for under $20 but simple. This and Evan Williams White Label are my "cooking" whiskies. Time to pour something a touch nicer.

So I am about to return home from deployment and I am looking for some suggestions as far as what tequila to buy for the first weekend home. Any help is appreciated and price really doesn't matter (I haven't had an IPA or good tequila in over 7 months)!

Any Modern Times IPA (City of the Sun is the current canned release but if you can get a growler of Night Tides that is damn good).
Also I really enjoy Societe's IPAs especially The Pupil but The Apprentice is also very good.

For Tequila I really enjoy the Milagro Select Barrel Reserve (not the standard Milagro).
The bottles look like

Booker's Annis' Answer. A very nutty Bookers. Lots of roasted peanuts, hazelnuts, brazil nuts, etc. Also a touch of caramel, toffee and vanilla.

Have had numerous homemade lemoncellos...only one was worth a damn. Mine sucked and my Aunt's Itailian b/f won't give me his recipe.



How did yours turn out?

Fine but certainly not outstanding. I had to make a quick recipe using zest and vodka instead of my normal routine of sweating lemons above vodka for a month. Still haven't found anything that's too great, though it's certainly worth it if you have friends etc who love the stuff.

Blood oranges were on sale this week so I'm gonna make some arancello rosso soon, I'll let Y'all know how that turns out.

I also have 5 zested lemons with no plans for them. Suggestions other than a butt ton of hollandaise?

Kah. Really top notch tequila. All three offerings (blanco, resposado or anejo) are great. The blanco is the least smoky/oaky the resposado the most. Cheers.

Thanks for all the recommendations, think I'm going to go with the Don Julio 1942. I've had the Milagro reserve and it's amazing so I think I'll try something new this time!

Never had Milagro but I can enjoy Corzo, and that says a lot as I typically cannot sit and just drink tequila.

We still have some bottles of limoncello from Capri we need to crack open...
