Two photos from a recent (and I'm sure reviewed) excursion to Mother Earth for their Silent Night release.



DD next to his wife Joy, looking at his water, wondering why he is drinking water, as he sits across from August West, who wonders why he is drinking nothing.



Fuse, who is too enamored with his Love Ninja to notice that he is drinking nothing, while LN steals his brew. She's a ninja, after all.

I could always give a review of the above-referenced water beverage that I'm drinking .

I'd worry more though if AW and fuse reviewed their non-beverages.

(funny captions, BTW)

I heartily endorse the quote above, well played sir!
Love the picture!
Will I get to see this photograph brought to life in your next show?

Three Floyds Robert the Bruce Scottish style ale

I'm not much of a scotch ale fan, and I do think Brueprint's Edinbrue is one of my favorites.

Rich caramel and toffee nose.

Syrupy sweet intermixed with smoke, offset by low level bitterness.

Pretty nice, another road trip find courtesy of devildeac!

Hope this doesn't cause Cameron Born and Bred any heartburn.

All in good fun!

Looks more like dd is really tasting a clear Wicked Weed sour.

First taste of Cold Mountain on tap... half pour on a lunch break. I consider this batch to be middle of the road for Highland. Had to try it just to say I had been a part of the event. I think it was maybe 3 years ago that I found it rather remarkable. The last two years, it has seemed a bit... thin on flavor.

That's why I am not buying any. So Mattman's decision not to wait in line this year was validated. But I would strongly suggest getting some of the Warrior Series' chocolate stout release this weekend. Even if I took the time now to remember it's exact name, it wouldn't matter. As Seinfeld has said in the past "they (it) are (is) spectacular!" It will be in stores shortly, so no problem.

Happy Turkey Day, y'all.

Very impressive haul. I've got a Lindley Park and obviously have had Silent Night plus Fig and Raisin. Really looking forward to reading about the others.

I still have a Lindley Park and Silent Night from last year.

The guy who processed my order looked at the bottles and said, "Isn't stout season great?!"

Going Dark Age tonight for the Bill&Mary tête-à-tête...

Lots of bourbon barrel influences. Really boozy. 12% ABV and it tastes like it. Really good, but a tad dangerous. Like Luke Kennard on a hot-streak.

Post game stopped at Sams.

Got a Bruery Nine Ladies Dancing (reason for the stop), a Mother Earth Honey, a Wicked Weed Milk and Cookies, and a six pack of Shiner Cheer.

The amazing bonus? My benefactor for tickets for the evening more than generously gifted me a bottle of Ad Idem that devildeac and I have been discussing for some time.

Champions Club access?

Ad Idem?

Does your benefactor have any job openings?

On deck for Thanksgiving...a New Glarus theme.

Likely start with Cran-bic and move from there to Serendipity.

Not sure if a nice pinot will make an appearance or not.

Happy Thanksgiving all!

Maple Scotch Ale-Sierra Nevada Brewing

Another tip of the pint glass to August West for this trader!

Pour was a clean and clear medium brown, even with its bottle-conditioned nature. Small, quickly disappearing head. Enticing aromas of caramel, faint smoke/peat and herbal hops, followed by tastes of pumpernickel bread, maple, toffee and milk chocolate. A bit more of a bite than expected for the style with IBUs of 43 to accompany the fairly standard ABV of 7.3%. Pair this with almost anything from the grill/smoker, including burgers, brisket or ribs. I'd buy a litter of these if they were available by the 4 pack or 6er. Here's the ingredient list:

YEAST Ale yeast
BITTERING HOPS Aurora
FINISHING HOPS Aurora
MALTS Two-row Pale, Caramel, Munich, Chocolate
OTHER Maple Syrup

It tickles my palate to read this.
