Your welcome Ron, glad you like it. It's been a hit since they started brewing it.

A little Clown Shoes while relaxing tonight.

Had an Edmund Firzgerald Porter, a Stone Americano Stout...

But the highlight was a Boulevard Brewing Tell Tale Tart sour...

Yum!

I've just been drinking a lot of the "bitter and mild" thing I made recently. It's easy to drink and was ready to drink right out of the fermenter except for the carb thing. If you like real ales from the British isles, it's good, especially after cycling, etc. It's also good blended with that can of Mr. Coopers Diablo IPA that I brewed to use up because it came with the "Mini Cooper" fermenter I got at a garage sale. Blending with that turns that beer into something I'm happier to drink, more like an English IPA, as the bready/toasty/marmalade flavors seems to hide the pride or Ringwood hops. I'll do something like it again.

SoPro Crowd Control-very tropical and not boozy at 8% though I'm not sure an 8% beer is truly an imperial.
Lots of flavors coming off both the nose and tongue. This is a very, very good IIPA. Gotta grab more soon as this is either seasonal or a one-off.
Edit: it's a regular release so this will be in my fridge a lot.

I've just finished a Brooklyn BrewShop Warrior Double IPA and that was pretty good so now I'm having a BBS EveryDay IPA, also pretty good.

Tonight I split a Cosmic Debris IIPA from Creature Comforts (thanks Inky!), then a good standard - Pale 31 from Firestone.

I picked up a 12 pack sampler from Alaskan Brewery -- Boundary Range Hop Pack. It has a couple Pale Ales and a couple IPAs going from 5.3 ABV, 40 IBU to 8.5 ABV, 70 IBU. I'll be trying these through the week.

The Freeride pale ale (5.3 ABV, 40 IBU) is very good (not wow outstanding). A very nice beer that I would drink again.

I had a BrewDog Punk IPA which was pretty good so now I'm drinking a Summit Single Hop IPA, both 1G all grain recipes from Brooklyn Brew Shop.

Sugar Plum Lager. Taste just like the name. A bit too sweet for my tastes, but I made it for a friend, and they love it.

Now this is interesting.
I am still drinking the Boundary Range Hop Pack from Alaskan Brewery. The four beers in the pack are all very good. I would drink any of them again but would not specifically be looking for them, if you know what I mean.

Today I drank the Hop Therma double IPA (8.5 ABV, 70 IBU) and then followed that with the Freeride Pale Ale (5.3 abv, 40 IBU). I found the Freeride Pale Ale to be twice as good when following the double IPA than when I had a couple by itself. The pale ale became light and refreshing when following the double IPA. Which brings up an interesting thought. A pair of brews where the stronger IPA is meant to be followed by a glass or two of pale ale and the brews complement each other. Perhaps there is no science to this at all though...

It's been one of those days, and I need a good nights sleep, so I'm sipping on a little bit of blackberry 'shine. Aahhhh!!

Anchor Steam and Fat Tire, both are my favorites.

Session IPA from Russian River to go with the Sharks game!

Nice glass. Even better beer!
