MM818 Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Welcome to the holiday weekend! Pondering when to put the annual 13# brisket on the smoker. This beer is magnificent and well worth having the Go Gos in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or if I did, I don't recall. Sounds like it might be right down my alley during the hot summer months (like now already, lol). I'll have to look out for it. Alright guys your solid recommendation pointed me in the right direction. I fully agree with your assessment. This is a very refreshing beer. SBers come through again! This 6 pack is gonna go fast. Only 3 left after this one. Ok my last "foreign pour" of the long weekend. All-American the rest of the way for me. Happy 4th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stories that guy could tell, awesome. I'm on a belgian spree the last month: Westvleteren 12, Orval, de Struise Black Albert, some Season-Style Ales, but also some good dark beers from good ole Germany, Schönramer Dunkel, Frankonia Clan, and a special beer from Schönramer, the Imperial Stout. It's finally summer and the beer season has arrived! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM818 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Solid offering from Russian River. 7% and bottled on 6/23. Listening to some spacey tunes from something called Pigeons Playing Ping Pong. Not bad! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM818 Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Ruh roh. Pilsner and MGP never hurt a fellow! Last night in Big Sur and today at Pebble Beach watching the women. Drinking a Lagunitas now and thinking how I want to play #6, uphill Par 5. There’s no laying up in my mind! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM818 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 According to the label the dribble belt was invented in the 1940s in Santa Rosa during a hop pickers strike. The DB separates the hop. Today, LA County is awash with striking workers. Hotel workers, writers, and actors all on the picket line. I’m curious how it impacts the local economy the longer these strikes extend. By the way, the beer is crisp, hoppy, and delightful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM818 Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 97 degrees on an LA City course. Had this bottle packed on ice until the 17th tee. After a couple pulls on the Pig I knocked my ball pin high about 215 yards. Missed the 12 foot birdie putt but caught a buzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulO Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Last month I was in Chicago. I always try to pick up interesting stuff I can't buy near home. Anyway, on a lark, I grabbed a 30 pack of Rhinelander Lager (Minhas Brewery Monroe, WI). I looked up Minhas. The brewery has been around since the 1800s, originally named Jos. Huber Brewery. Among all their different brands, they also supply many of the beers sold under the Trader Joe's label. Well, for something that I bought as cheap beer, I was pleasantly surprised. Rhinelander drinks more like an Oktoberfest/ Munich Lager than a typical light lager. In a glass there's some color to it, not really pale like light beers. There's some body to the mouth feel. Aftertaste has some malt goodness, like graham cracker or molasses (not too much). Very Nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM818 Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Eating and drinking my way through Maine. Food and beer are top notch! Their way of living closely aligns with mine. Outdoor recreation, farm to table food, craft beer and spirits, etc. I love seafood but I’ve had some incredible vegetable dishes this week.
