After our mini #snowpocalypse the heavy wet show was like nougat on the driveway, sticky curls. Maybe add some syrup?

#prairieArtisanAles Grand Hazelnut Reserve fits the bill.

Sweet and boozy, syrupy dark chocolate body with a nutty bourbon finish.

Waiting at the DMV for 65 minutes…with 7 of 18 service windows staffed…

Would be nice to cut through that line. I’ll have to settle for a Banshee Cutter instead

As has been noted, things are a bit goofy here of late. Thankfully we can still enjoy treats from our friendly Canadian neighbors.

#foundersBrewing CBS is just missing the Mountie! Chocolate, coffee, maple, & bourbon barrel oak blend together with hints of vanilla.

Aiming for this to be the final Calamity of the week. Bring on more Bad Weather!

@badweatherbrew.bsky.social BA Calamity 2024

Second day on the open bottle, complex flavors have melded, the fig and dark sugars strong over the rich oaky bourbon finish.

All this Bad Weather has me in a good mood

Oh, not the 50F, the @badweatherbrew.bsky.social beers! Sweater Weather is Ruby red, malty with a perfect balance of cinnamon and coconut nuttiness with a hint of vanilla.

Hot poked it yesterday & the cinnamon was AMAZING 🔥

This beer poking thing, I could get into this!

Take an amazing beer like @badweatherbrew.bsky.social Ominous or Sweater Weather and just burn the heck out of the malt & sugar.

Crème brûlée in an instant!
Marshmallow notes galore!
Cinnamon crisp that just pops!

It’s #stouturday and the week definitely started with a Calamity. We’ll end the same, but in a MUCH better way

@badweatherbrew.bsky.social 2024 BA Calamity #stout

Rich complex full body, dark sugar, fig, molasses, chocolate, and a dark bourbon finish.

The snow melts away revealing the dark piles of…rock, right? Little round rabbit…rocks…

I like my rocks darker, like @deschutesbrewery.bsky.social Obsidian #stout

Roasty malty lead, coffee and dark chocolate notes with a mild bitter finish.

Not quite Christmas Morning, but the light is starting to return.

#hardywood Christmas Morning

Sweet and creamy milk stout with cinnamon, ginger, and coffee, hints of vanilla and honey - let it warm for all the flavors.

We stopped by the dog sitter’s to pick up our departed little one's stuff

FUCK that was hard

We chose light over darkness
Empathy over rage
Understanding over blame

We didn’t sign up for this, but neither did they

It teaches us to be better people
To choose love over hate

Lost. We are Lost. Our youngest dog tragically passed. Just 14 months old.

She was a light
Now it is dark
She’ll always be in our hearts
Two pounds of joy
Thank dog her sister from another mother (6 yrs) is still with us

A classic dry Irish #stout on a beautiful 67F evening in Phoenix

Guinness Draught! The proper glassware famine continues but is more than made up for by good times with family.

Used to always have #samAdams Boston Lager around. Then I found #stout and as I look back I haven’t had one since August of ‘24!

As lagers go it’s a good one. As stocks go, it’s been a bumpy ride #$SAM

When at an Air BnB with family you take the cup you can get. Not perfect for a #stout but it’ll do!

#hussBrewing Imperial Chocolate Milk Stout

Cocoa body with dark bakers chocolate notes and a smooth finish.

Some kind of coffee cup with a picture of a nail polish bottle is next to a brown and white can with a cowhide motif. This no’s not the right cup for this beer, but no one cares.

Headed for 30F but it is still sweater weather in MN

@badweatherbrew.bsky.social Sweater Weather makes the winter warmer. Oh wait, it IS a winter warmer!

Coconut, cinnamon, vanilla with hints of caramel and a rich nutty body.

Nicely complex, dark and roasty with coffee, molasses, dark sugar, and chocolate

Ordered new P215/55R17 tires for the Saturn. Costco installs and the drive home is curiously loud?

Costco calls today - did we install your tries? Cuz they are sitting here in the shop…

Check the car - aha! P225/65R17’s. No wonder they looked bigger.

Back to Costco again…

Feeling light yet heavy, tap the restock of the good stuff

@boulevardbeer.bsky.social Rye on Rye hits that midpoint of rich but not overly heavy. My daughter said “it’s like your usual #stout without the stoutiness”

Spicy rye, caramel & sweet body with a whisky finish.

Whoops, copied 120 gig of stuff from an external drive to my iCloud, then watched my main drive nearly fill up as it was all mirrored back DOWN to my machine.

Turns out having macOS Content Caching enabled for “iCloud Content" really works!
