The Ancillary* Fermentation story:

https://www.waltermagazine.com/event...-fermentation/

Their most recent (as best I'm able to tell):

Inside Out-Ancillary* Fermentation (brewed and packaged at Fortnight Brewing)

quite local

Credit-on the shelf, familiar with the "brewery" and 15% off
Style-juicy IPA (label almost as difficult to read as some of Veil's)
Vessel-aluminum pint
Izitfresh-Canned on 12/20/19
Glassware-standard pint
Appearance-abundance of foam (uh-oh); did Dole or DelMonte package this?
Something in the air-it's pineapple grapefruit juice!
Mouthfeel-almost pulpy
Tastes-grapefruit, pineapple, orange zest, tangerine, peaches, guava and a hint of resin
Hops-Simcoe (grapefruity), Mosaic (pineapple, tangerine, guava) and Chinook (pine/resin)
IBU-WAG of 55
ABV-7%
Overall impression-surprisingly still tasty/juicy despite 4 months in the slammer
Ymm, Beer rating-teetering on the cat 2/3 border; if bought fresh, I'd bet cat 3 easily; not quite Veil/Burial level but very well done

Looks like a Carl to me.

That is one sweet logo’d Teku.

Looking forward to finding out what brewery is featured at Bottle Rev Raleigh today so I can stop by on the way home for a $10 mini growler for the next couple nights.

Yep, it's a Teku. I have a pair of that exact glass, obtained at a Foothills Sexual Chocolate tasting event several years ago.

Hmm, it appears to be Wilmington Brewing Company and this one sounds quite interesting:

Glam Metal IPA - Imperial / Double New England


• 9.5% ABV


Hazy Imperial IPA brewed with Tart Cherries and Lactose. All El Dorado hops

[devildeac]

Glam Metal (draft/mini growler)-Wilmington Brewing Company

close enough to call it local

Credit-brewery of the day at Bottle Rev and $10 mini growlers
Style-imperial milkshake NEIPA
Format-couple eight ounce pours tonight and the same tomorrow
Stemware-snifter
Appearance-hazy pineapple juice with a drop of ruby; thin head
Mouthfeel-juicy
Tastes-a pineapple screwdriver with a splash of cherry liqueur; mango and papaya
Adjuncts-tart cherries and lactose
Hops-El Dorado
IBU-maybe 40
ABV-9.5%; this was boozy
Overall impression-I'd drink this with some bacon, eggs and a stack of pancakes but, I'd have to omit the breakfast stout
Ymm, Beer rating-interesting variation/addition to the NE/milkshake/imperial IPA field; enters cat 3 territory

"Beer, Booze Sales Soaring Amid COVID Crisis"

https://www.wltz.com/2020/04/30/beer...-covid-crisis/

What really worries me is this:

"According to InMarket, a data analysis firm, sales of Busch Light have grown 44% over the past two months."

Frightening.

A buddy and i are headed to Texarkana, Texas today to get a truckload of Coors and bring it back to Atlanta. Let me know if you want in.

You're very kind to offer, but no, thank you. Mrs. dd would likely put my sleeping bag on the porch if I ordered any more as I'm currently at >95% COVID capacity.

Watch out for the cops, especially those small town sheriffs...

[Tripping William]

If you have a keg box, and you like Foothills beer, they are selling kegs at half price. Place orders Monday through Thursday; pickup on Friday/Saturday. One of the co-owners told me today that they sold like 70 kegs last Saturday. Thought I'd spread the word . . . . .

Most of the small town Sheriffs, but no need to worry about "Junyah", he's pretty gullible.

I suspect OPK and friend will be traveling in an unmarked truck.

Dang, that's the one thing the beer cave doesn't have. Poor planning on my part. Thanks for the heads up.

From the last 3 nights:

Wolf Claw-Wolf's Ridge and DuClaw Brewing collaboration

too soon?

I'll stand by my review of >2 months ago except my bottle didn't make it for the side-by-side last month as we found too much else to sample and our son promised he had another bomber of this, plus, the GBS Fluffy is mine so we'll try again this summer or this fall for that comparison.
