beer Being Crafty

HB braggot/saison, "dry hopped" with rocoto. I brewed this one last Summer to drink this Summer. Man, this is a killer beverage. Is it mead, is it saison? IDK, but it has a voluptiously creamy head that just don't quit, with a hint of malt, and orang blossom honey throughout.

Oh shit, I wish you would have let me know earlier. That Berliner is the (.)(.)

I've been stranded at my house most of the day, since I'm in the process of selling my car, and buying a new car. The Mrs. took her car to work. I was thinking of walking down there earlier today, but I decided that walking there, and carrying back cans in 95 degree temps would be a terrible idea. In hindsight, I should have dropped my wife off at work with her car, then picked her up...but then I wouldn't be able to drink while smoking these ribs.

Let me know a few days in advance if you have any requests, and I'll do my best to score you some cans. I should have my new car within a week anyway, so you kind of caught me at an odd time.

FYI, Aslin does almost all of their releases on Thursdays, with an occasional Saturday release.
I just saw it today. Sounds amazing. I'll like their FB page so I can see them.

Ashen, you're quite familiar with Collective Arts beers. The two that I've had from them were the State of Mind session IPA, and the Ransack the Universe DIPA. Loved them both! I guess I'm looking for more stuff that tastes similar to the Ransack. How would YOU describe those? (Maybe I'm just not putting it into words right)
Hard for me to make recommendations that would mean much to you. If you were in Ontario I would say to try Wellington Upside IPA or Muskoka Mad Tom. Twice as Mad Tom Imperial IPA might be a bit beyond what you are looking for but still a great beer. You might like Collective Arts Saint of Circumstance if you can find it there. The citrus zest in it isn't crazy fruity. Citra, Centennial and Amarillo hops blend well with the zest. Easy drinking and refreshing.

You might be able to find Dieu du Ciel. Moralité

Got a little crafty at the furniture store of all places tonight, haha. Place is nuts. "Jordan's Furniture" just opened last year in New Haven; I think there's a few of them around New England. Place has a crazy ropes course and zip lines INSIDE the store

Crazy water fountain show that was synced up to the music; had the Stones blasting the whole time I was in there

My oldest kid, cruising down the zip line, getting blasted by the fountain, hahaha

Not the best beer I've ever had, but definitely not the worst. Hell, for $12/pitcher.....SOLD! Pizza wasn't bad either :cheers:
