Issues and troubleshooting plumbed the deepest depths this week. Team work kicked ass, and we made it through.
Time to chill with #ModistBrewing Deepest Depths rum barrel aged #stout
Big and rich, syrupy chocolate and dark fruit body, hints of molasses and a sweet rum finish.
#drinkLocal #craftBeer
Spent all day chasing one side of a problem, not knowing the OTHER side was the REAL cause of the problem.
I suppose it’s the Dark Star you don’t see at first…at least it’s solved!
#FremontBrewing Dark Star imperial oatmeal #stout
Dark and roasty, coffee body with a slight bitter finish. Like my day.
#itsAlwaysStoutSeason
Well this day blew up bigly…
Take a break (more fallout to come) with a #prairieales BOMB! #stout
Bourbon, chocolate, vanilla, coffee, make a rich body with a zingy chili heat finish. Let it warm!

Between #wwwd outings had some family time and a few beers were shared.
#badWeatherBrewing Sweater Weather (it is not, but it’s too good to skip)
#ferndaleProject Dubai Afterdark #stout - not rich enough for the moniker, but nutty
#sullivans Maltings Irish Ale / delightful
#sundayBeers #family
Sometimes you want a tart slap and an acidic attitude.
In a BEER that is. I do not give relationship advice.
#revBrewChicago Deth by Bramble - Rich tart berry acidity, deep chocolate, hints of oak and a bourbon snap make for a fabulously complex relation.

Found out I actually have TWO Crème Brûlée #stout in the fridge.
This one from #Kuhnhennbrewery isn’t great - Sweet yet bitter, the toffee main note is burnt, blotting out the richness of the coffee. Burned it…
Saving the other for another day.

A couple #wwwd #wardrive beers. SAFELY consumed afterwards!
#alesmith Pace Car into coffee #stout (how appropriate!)
Last can - gave it a shake to stir the nitro and that helped the first half - creamy and coffee. As it sat it thinned out, second half mostly just coffee.

With all this smoke 💨 we aren’t going to have one later 🌟 so might as well grab one now 🍺
#weldWerks Starry Night milk #stout
Cocoa opener, big nutty hazelnut body, hints of coconut sweet and a touch of bite on the finish.
#itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer
Heckin’ Hot 🥵 at 91F, thank goodness for the breeze and the shade. Inside the house at 74F it feels downright cold…
So a bit of patio time, a bit of #surlyBrewing Twenty #barleywine
Two days open, still too hoppy for my tastes but lighter than a big #stout
#craftBeer #heat #mnWX
After a disappointing barleywine, cap the #fridayBeers with a favorite
#GooseIsland 2025 Bourbon County BA #stout
It’s a short bottle but big on flavor. Rich barrel notes, deep complex sugars, chocolate, vanilla, boozy bourbon background!
#craftBeer #itsAlwaysStoutSeason
This initially looked dark but just run some light through it and you’ll see…the light, I guess.
#branchAndBone Artisan Ales Black Candle imperial milk #stout
Smooth creamy mouthfeel, sweet and fruity notes with a cocoa chocolate base.
#itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer
Hoped this one might get better with age, but alas it has not.
#kirkland 2025 Vintage Ale from #deschutesBrewery
Roasty with coffee and a bitter edge, hints of cocoa but mostly underwhelming. Not my favorite barrel-aged #stout
#itsAlwaysStoutSeason #barrelAged
86F outside, promises of 100F by next week.
But I’m inside, and I’m cold, cuz air conditioning will keep us alive.
But hey, #RevBrewChicago Vanilla Deth calls, so I don’t care what the temp is!
Complexity breeds fondness, a fabulous mix of barrel notes, oak, chocolate, vanilla and a lasting chewy finish.

House warming for my daughter’s friend, her first home. Known her since she was 6, now a home owner! Time flies.
A second dry Irish #stout enjoyed in the melty sunlight. #bissellBrothers Black nitro. Could’ve used some black to cover up the sun!
Another solid dry Irish stout, the nitro adds a cream body even drinking straight from the can.
