Into the hoppy stuff now...

Second Street "Sloppy Sloth - Talus" hazy IPA. I've tried pretty much all of them in this series of variable hops and haven't been blown away by any. This one though is best of the bunch, and I might grab a 6-pack.

Gravity Bound "Single Gene" (7.4% abv). Always really like what I get from Gravity Bound and this is no exception. Super smooth and creamy with just a hint of a bite on the finish.

That Black Currant Sour sounds good!

Goose Island Boubon County Brand Stout, 2020 edition. Tasty, glad to see AB kept their paws out of this production.

That's historically been an excellent stout. Glad it continues to be so.

Just found this thread. This pic is from a week ago. The beer was an extravagance purchased with a BevMo birthday gift card. BBA stout with cherries.

Another busy week, but with some software upgrades being done this weekend i'm keeping away tomorrow as it ought to be pretty quiet. Out for a while today as one of our sales team needed to deliver a car up to "El Dorado" which is a remote "suburb" community northeast of Santa Fe...about 70 minutes each way...nice drive and due to some freeway construction we took the back way which made it even nicer.

Home, and beer, and it's Ex Novo IPA time..."Eliot" and "Threat Level: Turquiose"

Very nice. They have the basic gose/sour on tap, and several choices of fruit to infuse as they pour.

Drank this while watching the USMNT last night; it helped ease the pain from the horrible passing and lack of effort from the team.

yeah...well....how did it taste? Also, what the heck is USMNT?

The bourbon was present but not too sweet, a bit of smokiness from the vanilla, sweetness from the mallow and a great roasty finish that hung around. Tasty in a nutshell.
US Mens National Team, final world cup qualifying match where we were toothless and flatfooted.

Can’t get enough of Champaign Illinois brewery!!!

First beers of April, and after a day on my feet (watch tells me 14.4 miles/27k+ steps!) boy they taste good!

La Cumbre "Lager Softly." A simple basic lager, smooth and crisp, very easy going as it should be

Bow & Arrow "Surface" White IPA. A hopped-up wheat beer basically...throws a loop at first but its pretty tasty.

 

[paligap]

Incredibly smooth and luscious

 

[GOS]

Nice and nutty!!! Local fresh brew rules!
