Beer of the Day - BOTD - 2022

I'll second that! If it ever got rough out here it would resemble a Three Musketeers reenactment.

And a scotch fan too! I've encountered a number of your rescaling efforts on the straight forum over the years but I've seemingly missed a lot of your speakeasy contributions.

I'm a big fan of Laphroaig, but I've not encountered this bottle. What do you think?

(oops, this is suppose to be about beer)

Very observant! I only recently visited The Speakeasy, after the frenetic pace of my rescaling efforts necessitated a scaling back of said rescaling efforts.

I really like it! A pilot got it in the UK and left it at a friend's. She doesn't drink anything stronger than Kahlua, so she gave it to me. Probably 100 ml, but at least I got a few drams. Out of my price range.

Ah, what the heck... I should think a thread dedicated to discussion of the consumption of brews would almost require a certain amount of unrelated blithering!

Last of the 2021 Stiegl Christmas Bock

To celebrate Rabbie Burns Night, I had a post-shave Corona Shot:

Most enjoyable. (The pic was taken pre-shave.)

Down to the retail craft beer place to replenish the stock after exhausting the holiday 6 pack. I enjoyed the 2021 draft version of Clown Shoes (Ipswich, MA) Snow on the Maple Tree while browsing.

Other than it being a Stout this is kind of out of my wheelhouse but I like an occasional Chai tea so though why not. Very little carbonation, definitely get the cinnamon, cardamom, and clove notes up front with a slight bitterness midway through. The Chai tea really shows up in the aftertaste. Thin, but not watery, mouthfeel. This is a local brewery and I’m interested to see what else they put out. This would be a good dark summer beer.

Enjoying a fantastic porter tonight

Funky Buddha Last Snow

Franziskaner Weissbier, normally, I drink stouts and porters during the winter, but tonight, I fancied some German beer. Rather, appropriately, I am drinking this magnificent brew from a stein, and not just any stein, this stein plays "a tavern in the Town" whenever I take a swig. Yep, tankards are another of my acquisition disorders

Spices sit atop the head and sediment at the bottom of the glass. Nice Tripel.

 

[Black Adder]

A little too heavy on the orange peel; the bitter part. From the BIL; better than Heineken, I guess....

 

[Black Adder]

Another nice one from New Glarus. Helps to get you through winter.

Stuff's juussstt about ready, Adam. I'll let you know!

Something a bit different for me last night, a lovely Red Rye IPA

 

[CongaJon]

Southern Tier Coconut Truffle Imperial Milk Stout. Nitro, no less. Very tasty and ridiculously smooth for 10%!

 

[FL shaver]

Huracán Imperial Stout from Big Storm. 11% with a heavy mouthfeel.
