      Just started getting Cigar City distribution here in Texas, picked up a 6 pack to try it out. Solid IPA.

        Beer’s I have drunk (in the past week).

        Perfectly OK IPA

        A classic…

        More Smuttynose. I enjoyed this a lot.

        One of my fave Norwegian brewers made a Barleywine. They did a solid job. Fruity at the start, warm and boozy in the middle and slightly bitter at the end. Balanced.

        Less well balanced, but a bit more action:

            Cheeky bugger…  😃 That averages less than one beer a night. One of them was only 7%ABV too  😛

                You’re good [emoji1] To be fair I’ve just done in my first beer of the weekend and it was only 5pm. Started big…

                This be actually made me happier than it should have done. Imho Brew Dog have lost the plot in recent years due to their rush to commercialism, but this is a really solid tasty milk stout.

                  i like a good milk stout. there's a local brewery here that i frequent that makes a coffee milk stout. growler fills only so you "must" buy a 32oz or 64oz bottle… its called "coffee breath" and its fantastic. made by New England Brewing Company. \

                  Five pm Shmive pm. you drink when you want damn it.

                      ^ nice start to the weekend.

                      Probably a bad sign when you consider a 7% ABV beer refreshing but that’s what this was:

                          I've had five of theirs over the last few months. I automatically pick them up when they come in as I remember your being very happy about getting your hands on some a couple of years ago. It's generally good stuff. On the one hand challenging, but refined at the same time. They have a Trippel brewed with apricot at the monopoly that I need to try. Too dark and cold for it now though.

                              I haven't had that before… I reckon it's not cheap seeing as how it's 8%?..

                                8% yes. It’s about one Euro more than the Saison and one less than the Bons Væux for a 750ml. Neither of those are expensive by Norwegian standards.

                                I’ve bought it already. Will drink it fresh in case I need to buy more for cellaring…

                                  You probably won't… Nowt beats the regular saison or the Bon Voeux...

                                  That reminds me: I need to start cellaring some Bon Voeux asap...

                                    They are both lovely.

                                    Cellaring for summer?
