Beer of the Summer '17 for me. Between me, my wife's family and all my beer loving buddies, we must have consumed eleventy billion of these babies. IPA also very good as is their brew pub in Astoria. Worth a trip out there alone.

Last night, the wife and I shared a 4-pk of pints of Critical Band by Modern Times. A very tasty "juicy, tropical IPA."

Good article about what our friends on the other side of the IL border are up to these days: More than corn in Indiana

Read that earlier; the writer pretty much nailed it IMO, although I’d definitely throw Four Fathers in there over both New Oberpfalz and Devil’s Trumpet.

Speaking of “friends across the border,” Jade to start the ball rolling tonight — the APA brewed with flakes oats before that was cool.

I feel like I’m stealing every time I grab this. Just a stellar beer and it’s ridiculously cheap.

Both are delicious. VERY impressed with the Thick Mint. It's like drinking Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies. im a little tipsy right now.
Also has SA Harvest Hefe yesterday. It was very tasty.

Tonight is my brother's 40th birthday party. It's supposed to be a bottle share but in reality most of our friends are Miller Lite drinkers, which is fine. I was going to open Dwarven Power Bottom but might save that for another night and maybe go with a BCBS Coffee. Not sure yet but something good will be opened.
Also have a keg of homebrew Heady clone that actually smells like Deep Space from Half Acre which is a good thing. Hoping it's fully carbed and ready to hook up to the kegerator. Can't completely tell as I am having issues with my keg/liquid line.
As far as what I got him, tickets for the New Glarus hard hat tour (a year ago since they sell out that far in advance), a Hoppy Birthday tap handle (couldn't find Nelson and thought this one was appropriate considering it is a birthday present) for the kegerator I got for him as a wedding present, and some Central Waters schwag.

Both Mikkeller NE IPAs referenced above are damn good; Buddy Buddies is really freaking excellent. The two Prairie West Coast IPAs are on deck.

Yeah they are, can't remember the guys name I talked with (one of the co-founders of the place) and he was super cool. Every time I'm in Orlando I'll be making the trip out there for sure. Plus that Mango Habanero sour is one of the best non-barrel aged non wild sours I've ever had.Hell yeah! Im jealous...I live an hour away and can never seem to get over there.

Made the weekly run today: more Lord Hobo Glorious, plus fresh Enjoy By and Bare Hands Bee Hop. Considering that the Bee Hop clocks in at > 10%, I’m likely looking at a complete $hitshow this weekend lol. It’s just sooooo good though.

From 18th Street's FB:
"Introducing Nickel and Dime, two new Double Dry Hopped Double India Pale Ales that won’t leave you feeling short changed. Both are juicy and hazy- Nickel (7.4% ABV) is brewed and dry hopped with Nelson Sauvin and Simcoe hops; Dime (7.6% ABV) with Citra and Galaxy hops. Available 10/12 at both locations. 13oz drafts $6, 16oz 4pks to go $18."
Looks like I'll be having another talk with the wife about how I spend too much on beer tomorrow lol.

We also had a nice sampling of Gun Hill, SingleCut, Sloop and He'Brew. Divided Sky by GH, in particular is very good. First time having Doubleplus Good from Sloop. The guys love Ripa on Rye, but I personally find that it crosses it over some poorly defined line and its no longer beer. Hits you over the head with the alcohol, but that's me. Great weekend with a ton of great beers.

Enjoying an IRMA IPA (Green Bench, 7venth Sun, Coppertail and Orange Belt collab). All ingredients including the cans were donated and all proceeds go to Florida hurricane relief. They used hops whose first letters spell IRMA:
Idaho 7, Rahau, Mosaic, Amarillo
Prerty cool. For $10/6 pack it can't be beat. And it's tasty as hell!

Cigar City Papayalai IPA
Cigar City Space Pope IPA
7venth Sun IPA is Almost Dead
Tampa Beer Works Another IPA
Finishing the night with an IRMA IPA.
It's been a good night. All Tampa Beer and all delicious. As a beer nerd I'm lucky to live here, Tampa Bay's (and FL overall) beer scene is pretty awesome.

Have you had satans bake sale mint chocolate chip stout from spring house? Never thought I'd like a beer like that, but had it a festival several years ago and thought it was great.
