I absolutely have one of these.

I almost added that to my list, but realized I had already purchased 12 liters of beer and I'm not Czech.

Czech? Mate.

One of the few things I remember about 3 years of German at Duke is how the German language is so adept at stringing so many letters together to construct their words.

No cooking required.

Plus, it looks/sounds German.

Apologies in breaking the German theme. Wanted to share a few more of the drinks I had from last weekend.

Found a spot that's 5-10 minutes from our place. Fair Isle. They specialize in saisons and farmhouse ales. Appreciate a brewery taking this route when it seems everyone is (still) focused on IPAs.

Madame R Galle
Fair Isle Brewing
Farmhouse Ale
6.2% ABV
Inspired by saisons in the Wallonian region along the border of Belgium and France. Madame is a dry saison brewed with barley and wheat from Skagit Valley, setting a stage for our house yeast culture to thrive and produce notes of meyer lemon, apricots followed by a soft bitterness from German hops.

In the 1970's a mail-order begonia shop occupied the space that is now our tasting room. During demolition, we uncovered a mailbox containing correspondence with a nursery in Belgium inquiring about their order of Madame R. Galle begonias.

My first choice as the description claimed it was their house beer. Dry. The flavor hits up front and I was really expecting something to come through on the backend, but it never developed. A little one note, but still enjoyable.


Eugene
Fair Isle Brewing
Farmhouse Ale
7.5% ABV
Eugene is a saison brewed with Mandarina Bavaria hops, fermented with second-use Mosaic from Bobbi and dry hopped with loads of Citra.

Dank, with notes of grapefruit, mango and bursts of tropical citrus, Eugene blurs the line between hazy IPAs and saisons

I was talked into this one by the beertender. Was released just last week. It has a hint of hazy IPA to it, but the traditional saison characteristics win out. Grapefruit is the most prominent flavor.

No apology needed. Always like reading about farmhouse ales/saisons. They sound wonderful; especially with no sugar added and no baking required.

I was very, very bad at Total Wine this morning.

Or is that very good?

German beers chilling, surprised at limited stock.

I guess I'll need to figure out the jingle now. Doesn't sound complicated from memory.

See, THIS is why I know you don't really exist.

Confirmed, but I will not drink twice as much bier...

I know what my next song on the set list is!

Reposting for what I hope are obvious reasons.

D'oh!!

Could've easily been lederhosen, too, but the possible imagery is too vivid for that.

Or Gummibears, originally from Germany, IIRC. Oh, wait, that's candy; we're talking adult beverages.

It has been an insane week around the Nrrrrvous household but I'm still holding out hope that I can be there!

Just dawned on me that the Duke - UVa game starts at 4pm.

I won’t be watching, and I expect after 30 minutes there could be a line at the virtual pub jostling for position to get another 9% dopplebock to quench the flames of lamentation.

My fridge is well stocked.

No ACCN here, so will have to find other reasons to drink.

Lederhosen don't dance all by themselves, after all.

If they haven't been washed in a while, one never knows...

I don't get accn either so I'll be drinking for pleasure .
