Sharing a 32oz growler with Mrs D....something a little different for us...La Cumbre Schwartzbier dark lager (5.5% abv, 30 ibu)...nice one on a colder winter night.

Most oddly, it's 66 degrees here in central IL, big storms, lots of rain. Bizarre......

We had a dusting of light snow in the foothills this morning - most don't realize that Abq is high desert...mile high, so we get winter snow every year. Usually doesn't last long though, and it sure looks nice up on the 10,000' Sandia Peak! I cleared a few areas at work this morning and dropped some ice melt, just to be safe (especially the handicapped parking area) but by 10am it was gone, even in the areas with no sun.

Budweiser was the very first beer I ever drank...as a youngster. If I ever drink the mass produced beers, it's Miller High Life for me. I rarely do though, to be honest. I much prefer drinking a beer at 50-55 degrees (good beer that is) as I think the flavor is better.

A gentle start to the weekend having survived the first week back at work after the festive season. This hefeweisse from Pressure Drop in North London is light and refreshing:

Just home from the NM Ice Wolves hockey game (we won!) and time to knock one back before sleep....La Cumbre "Formulation" Dbl Dbl NEDIPA (8.5% abv, ibu n/a)

Been offline while migrating to a new computer - finally done!

While data was transferring we went out to move some boxes into storage, stopped at Brew Lab 101 and had a 10oz pour of their very good "Wicked Pissa" NEIPA (6.5% abc, 55 ibu). Sampled their "X" experimental IPA and is was good...very clear and piney, sharp bite....but small batch so no growler fills unfortunately

Now while dinner is getting prepped and I tweak the new computer to my liking, a bottle of home-brew a fellow gave us...a nice light kolsch:

Funny I click on this thread and I get beer ads. Wonder why.

Friday, after a busy week at work...Mrs D opted for a glass of sherry so instead of the sour I'm going with a bottle of SanLuis Valley Brewing (Alamosa, CO) "Valle Caliente" green chile lager (4.2% abv)

Hey man. In 2 weeks, I will be in Argentina, then Brazil. We'll see what kind of brew they have.

After a recent trip to the British Museum to take in the Troy Exhibition we stopped off at the Craft Beer Company in Covent Garden. I went for the hazy NEIPA by Pressure Drop whilst my wife enjoyed the Tap 1 Weisse from Schneider Weisse:

Schneider brews my absolute favorite Weißbier: Tap 6 Unser Aventinus.

Couldn’t agree more, we’re taking a short break in Munich next month and will be sure to spend some time in the Schneider Bräuhaus.

Sunday dinner company here, brought a crowler of Boxing Bear's "Nutz N Nibs" peanut butter chocolate porter (6.66% abv). I just had the small glass as while it's a tasty brew I found it a tad sweet.

Then, from the back of the fridge, a bottle of Ballast Point Raspberry Sour Wench (7.0% abv, 10 ibu)

 

[Cibola]

Be sure to go to Augustiner as well. Their beer is amazing. Best Hef in the world, IMHO.
