    had some "left overs" this after noon.
    Allagash - White wheat
    Prairie - Phantasmagoria IPA

    Thinking about cracking open the bottle of Young's Double Choc. stout for dessert. :rolleyes:
    Instead, I've been popping Cadbury mini-eggs by the twos. :anonymous:

    Drinking my last Waldo. :mad:.

    On a side note to you brewers... I picked this up at Lowe's for $30. Drinking water safe! Haven't even pulled it out of the pack yet but looks like decent quality.

    Yes, it was a Monday, but since my cousin and her husband moved out of state, she doesn't come down to Pennsylvania as often as either of us would like...

    Picked up a 6-pack of lager, a 6-pack of 5 assorted lagers (and a Purple Monkey Dishwasher)...

    I still have 4 Yuenglings in the fridge out in the garage, but me and cousin polished off the "Build-your-own" assorted 6-pack in about 2 hours. We huddled up under a blanket in the bed of my Tacoma under the stars and just made it disappear.

    "Open container" my ass...

    We were in the bed of my Tacoma, on my parents' private property. Not only was the truck not on, but the keys weren't even in the ignition. I have a Bud Light beer opener keychain which is on my set of keys, and obviously my cousin and I were using that...

    I rarely have a plan lol. I've had one of those scrunch hoses as back up to the regular ones. It comes in handy when we get a decent day after I've winterized the main hoses. Anyway, the scrunch hose is starting to wear and this seems like a good option to move water to my brew stand too.

    Big NY launch today for Collective Arts out of Hamilton Ontario. Haven't tried the beer yet but the artwork is killer. Was supposed to go to the VIP party but I can't make it. I hate passing up free beer

    Yes. Fantastic beer but pretty spendy


    Drinking their session IPA now - State Of Mind. Tons of flavor for a 4.4% beer. Very citrus and more bitterness then I expected but it doesn't linger too long. Quite good

    I find that most sessions IPA's have a weird astringent bitterness to them. Like without the malt its straight AA bitterness.

    That being said Oscar Blues Pinner is a good sessions IPA; not as astringent.

    If you like stuff from Green Flash you should try their Sea to Sea Lager, its a great take on a German/Bavarian zwickle. Very crisp, dry, and a total crusher!

    That is probably one of my favorite beers from FW, aside from the Luponic Distortion. It can be pricey, I sell it for $14 at my store but to me it's well worth it. It's their take on a New England Style IPA, so it's unfiltered and juicy (think fruity not sweet) but it still has a heavy West Cost influence so it is a very clean drinking beer. If you're local to where I am I might be able to hook you up with some :thumbsup:
