Then you will like this one too. One of my favorites.
Cherry seems to be popular in beer. Ommegang does one,rosetta. Troegs, mad elf ale ect. And my local brew pub has a Cherry Trippel on tap thats very popular. I usually get a Growler (half gallon) to take home.

Im drinking my favorite Quad (10% and up) while doing my taxes. Im thinking i should be able to list the Quad under "Stress relief Medication" How about Business Meals and entertainment. The requirements are you have to discuss business while dining. Does talking to yourself about business count? The possibilities are endless........................................I may be pushing the envelope.

Got away for a few days up island for a bit of vacation and celebrate our 20th. Turned in to a bit of a brewery tour...hate when that happens!
Our favorite was Cumberland Brewing - they don't bottle for retail so you either belly up to the the bar or bring a growler home with you...we did both.

[Hearth.com] What's your favorite BEER? This is the IPA of course...
 
This week, Goulden Draak, Allagash Curiuex, Russian River Damnation, and Ommegang Gnomegang.

I just poured one the way Jan likes, with a little head. [emoji12]

I have simple tastes...

Pilsner Urquell is my favorite all around.

Moon Man by New Glarus is my go to pale ale, and is almost all I drink all summer long.

My favorite Oktoberfest is also a New Glarus - Staghorn.

New Glarus is a helluva good reason to live in Wisconsin.
 
I'm getten old the doctor said I can have 1 beer a day
1 bottle or 1 can ! Well my kegs are a type of can and
I am having a hell of a time drinking a keg a day :)
 
Homebrew Pale Ale. 5.4% ABV.
Magnum hops for bitterness.
Crystal hops for flavor.
Added gelatin to the keg to get rid of any debris.

Refreshing. Not too hoppy. Consider a Session Ale.

We were in NOLA last month and I had that too and enjoyed it. I was also delighted to find some St. Thomas Brewery ales there. They were excellent.

Found this one in a 4 pak which helps if you just want to try it for the first time, cuz its around $100 for full case of 24. Strong Blond Belgian ale. . A carbonation explosion,bright yellow and very smooth. These could sneak up one you at 8.5% ABV Similar to Gnomegang from Ommegang

I am never without at least one 25 oz bottle of Tremens in the fridge. I’ve had a few issues with their 12 oz bottles spoiling, though, I suspect their caps. The larger bottles are corked, and seem to keep better.

That stuff was my go-to for many years, only supplanted in recent years by Curieux.

Iv found the Curieux on tap just east of Harrisburg at Pizza boys brewery and Restaurant. A friend went there last week and i spotted it on their menu board that he sent me a pic of . So he brought a 750 ML home ill be sampling soon. Thats the closest iv seen it to my location. Pizza boys have over 100 beers available. Ill have to get down there at first opportunity.

I made a cherry apple cider using spent cherries in a secondary ferment from my cherry liqueur process and it was delicious.
 
Celebrating the return of spring...and going to part-part time at work!

That may be worth a visit to Burnaby. It looks like they make a lot of cool beers and ales.
