It's actually a pretty sweet glass - though it's a bitch to clean/dry the inside of the base.

I shared a bottle of Cantillon BIO with a few friends this weekend and they actually liked it. Surprised the shit out of me, but I was glad.
Enjoying a bottle of Flying Monkeys Smashbomb Atomic IPA right now.

Highly recommended! Great west coast style IPA. I'll see if I can't snag another one and mule it back east.

Picked up a Garrison Kelleye’s Wild Rye’d IPA in the city and I'm really enjoying it. The spicy rye adds a really interesting dimension. Looking forward to experimenting with rye.

Enjoying Maritimers Bitter :mmm:
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Having a pint of my Strongbad Bitter. Not bad for a 10 day old beer, but definitely needs some more conditioning time.

Bitter night continues!!! BCS's best bitter recipe "I'm not Bitter, I'm Thirsty". The tang coming off the special roast is interesting. Definitely will be revisiting this one.

Went to Garrison after work and was quickly handed a sample by a friend who works there of the Citra 1hop followed by the Rye. Gabbed a Growlito of the former and 2 bottles of the latter. Giving them a chance to settle after the walk home by having one of my FeBREWary Pale Ales.

Apparently they plan on changing the graphics on the Growlito each time they order new ones.

Sweet haul! That Palo Santo Marron from DFH is fantastic stuff.

I'm going to crack open a bottle of Southern Tier Mokah that the Chalmers express so kindly delivered here today.
