@phoenixinflight I have a pair of Wilkes in the 17oz black by black. The fabric is fairly stiff.You can really feel the texture.I haven't worn them a ton that pair is a dress up or date night pair. I think it will fade rather nicely with some dedication.

Well I am happy witht the way my pair faded. Now I have a nicely faded black pair . I am going to be wearing a pair of uhr in the 888 cut for my bridge pair.

Nice sweet cider with tartness from the cherries to balance it out with an abv of 6.9 percent. I am really liking this one. It is 1911 black cherry hard cider from beak and skiff based out of Lafayette, Ny which is near Syracuse. I have seen it around before but hadn't tryed it until now.It is NY grown apples not sure on the cherries though.

Well it is the beginning of fall here I guess since we just made it to September. So Genesee dropped this cranberry apple ale. I was a skeptical at first but it is pretty good. Smells like apple candy. Well balanced with a full body. It just works. Granted this is a couple normal beers deep prior for my initial impression so ymmv. I was pleasantly surprised definitely worth a try for something different. I might have to pick up another case lol.

@pechelman I also don't have a fox Brothers flannel yet but I have a few wool items. I would recommend hand washing with cool to Luke warm water and a wool safe detergent like Eucalin. I would also steer clear of the drying machine and air dry.

Went for a short hike today on the Taughannock Falls trail near Ithaca, New York. Nice flat trail with nice view of the Falls at the end.

Got a sampler pack at Wegmans the other day and here are couple that I gave a try tonight. I am learning I am not a fan if IPA but I didn't mind Troegs perpetual ipa. The cookie milk stout by Great lakes was fun it did taste like a chocolate chip cookie and it was creamy.

@Jord the texture is awesome on them. I ordered a pair too but mone are in the mail still.

Thanks @Giles ! I will reach out to Jason.

Is there another Fox Brothers flannel in the works? This recent cold snap has me reaching for more of my wool shirts and I would love to add one to my collection.

When in Rochester......

First time checking out the Genesee Keg tree.

Stopped in at the Genesee Brew House to see the keg tree.

I am proud to say I have earned a spotlight from the official indigo invitational page. This is the first one I have gotten and this is my third year competing.

I am sorry I am really late to the party on posting this one but I picked up this cider advent calendar. So far I like the ones I have tried but I haven't been trying them every day. By the way this is a cool place they have larger bottle of there more popular cider I recommend the 5 point and for something sweeter the blue whale.
