Shudde Bros Stetson 3X Beaver OR and Dry Hopped Sour from Aldi. Hoppy sour and refreshing

Sour hopped IPA is right up my taste alley. Excellent - cheers to you.

International juice Day... cool! Looks grand Jack. I need to make time to go out in public and visit a bar. It has been a long time.

Juice day - Did not know this. I am sipping a Surley IPA with grapefruit added tonight. Surley Delicious tonight is my beer choice. I have packed my suitcase for some business travel and will be picked up for a ride to the airport and travel within the hour. The beer tastes terrific!

Enjoy the evening and your Saturday folks. Cheers, Eric -

I'm trying to limit myself to no more than two nights out per wk. I live in a mostly rural county with a small population but the vaccination rate is still only ~30%. New cases, hospitalizations & deaths continue to decline over the entire metro area. We've all lost a yr of our lives; I don't want to lose any more.

Sorry I wasn't around to see your post before your driver picked you up. If your travel is for a meet I hope your teams place well in the competition.

It's been a day under a Stetson OR Twenty-five, ending HH with some Lagavulin 16.

Akubra Cattleman and Yorimichi, an American Wheat beer from our favourite craft brewery.

I’m drinking from a wood fired Sansukeyaki beer cup. It produces an incredibly creamy head.

Tasty choice Jack.

My mouth is tasting the Lagavulin. Tonight I will have to break open the bottle and share some with my wife.

That is one attractive cup. I really like it and will have to consider looking into some interesting beer cups. It is time to expand my horizons. My go to beer/wine glasses are a couple variations of Iittala glasses and a couple of Waterford glasses for whiskey.

This morning started early with an airport check-in at 4:45am. Home has me doing a dog walk, human walk, bakery errand and starting some lake trout on the grill for breakfast. It is an appopriate time to sip a Surley Pilsner.

Get it opened up, Eric. Those of us who like Lagavulin &/or the Ardbegs are going to have a HH together via Zoom!

Thanks for the wishes Jack. I opened the bottle up and we did enjoy a dram. Apologies no pics. We shared the whiskey down by the lake in the dark and agreed that a pic (with a flash) would disturb the mood. I will remedy that later this coming weekend.

Last night found me enjoying the weather change (cooler without humidity). Terrible pic, but it does substantiate that I meandered the property sipping a Founders All Day IPA.

Cheers, Eric -

My Stetson Shady Oak Farm Amon Carter & some Ardbeg Wee Beastie for HH.

Another Ardbeg for HH! Beaver brand 10x was the hat today.

Great hat & pic, DD. Love the way the green bottle lights up.

Guinness Stout for the win tonight!

Cheers, Eric -

A Stetson One-hundred & a few Dos Equis Ambers for HH to open the holiday weekend. Not as crowded as I thought it might be.

 

[Short Balding Guy]

I got home just as the sun was done for today. A walkabout tonight finds me sipping a Surley IPA in my "not crowded" backyard. You know I might sip a second to really start my weekend.

Cheers, Eric -

After last night's rain it's cool enough for felt early this morning. Probably won't last, but it doesn't matter. It's a 3 day weekend and I'm kicking it off with the Dobbs Dayton model and a cup of coffee with some help. Hope everyone has a safe holiday weekend....or just a safe weekend if it's not a holiday where you live.

My first day of the year in a Panama coincides with our last day with the magnificent Hibiki 17.

The Thinker (an African version) trying to decide what we should replace the Hibiki with...

My money’s on Lagavulin.

First outing under the new Knox American Royal, as it dries. Enjoying a few Doe Equis Lagers.

What a wonderful dram. There are only two choices to replace the H17 with - H21 or non age Hibiki or better still the Hibiki Blossom Harmony 2021 released this week and aged in Sakura casks!

Very very nice!

 

[dh66]

As expected, the day got too hot for the felt, so I'm winding it down with a vintage JC Penney straw and a belly full of bbq

 

[Hurricane Jack]

Very very nice!

Thank you!

I bought a special bottle today but decided to wait until tomorrow or Mon to open it.

So tonight I’m drinking Strathisla.
