throet Posted September 27, 2020 Author Share Posted September 27, 2020 Believe somebody may have posted on this one previously. It's a really interesting alternative to the heavy porters. This is a blonde with some light coffee notes and a really smooth finish. Pairs really nicely with post-ride BBQ on a Sunday afternoon! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Functionally I believe ever beer pairs with post rides. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcarneytx Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Twofer: first, an 11% imperial oatmeal stout I brewed. So far, very well received by those that have had it. Second, a friend makes liquor. He gave me a "build your own rye whiskey" kit. Now just need to figure out how long to keep it on wood. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFisher Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Nice Live Oak Oktoberfest tastes really satisfying after changing the igniter in the oven. Easy job but still a PITA getting to all the bolts and connectors. $21 versus probably $150 for a repair. Had my AC guy replace a contactor a couple weeks ago = $147. I bought a spare online for $10.16 for next time. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATXZJ Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) Went hard in the paint with the oktoberfest seasonals and gained 2lbs, so I had to dial it back a bit. Girly beer will be the weapon of choice for a bit now😄 BTW, the dogfish is pretty good. Celis tastes like lonestar light Edited September 29, 2020 by ATXZJ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notyal Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I know AXTZJ posted this one already, but MAN!! This shit is crazy. It’s like that spicy/sweet Mexican candy that I both love and hate at the same time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggo Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Careful, he gained like 10lbs. Punkins are fat. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinBike Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Spicy and pumpkin? Probably pairs well with pineapple on your pizza. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a beer I'd drink everyday, but it does have me going back for more when it's available. As for food pairing, I prefer the Atomic Pumpkin stand-alone. I love spicy margaritas and martinis as well. Just muddle up and strain a serrano, mix it in, and you're good to go! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinBike Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Bai Bubbles and vodka is a great way to take the edge off of the week that we just had. Nice low carb alternative. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadn't ever even thought about ordering pizza from that place. Might have to change that. Hmm...maybe Friday for lunch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throet Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share Posted October 7, 2020 Finally got around to trying this one. A little disappointed given all of its hype, but certainly no regret over plunking down half a C for some pretty tasty stuff. Has a really wonderful nose BTW, if you're into sniffing instead of drinking, which generally I am not. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed I'm not a big fan of any finished bourbon that I've had. I generally enjoy finished malts and ryes, however...I just find finished bourbon tends to be tart/sweet. For example I do very much enjoy AE Rye, a rum finished MGP rye. Sure it's sweet and a little goes a long way. But it is probably my favorite desert (or breakfast) whisky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinBike Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Except that all of the mountain lion stories had me freaked out. When you are that far from home, that far from civilization and all by yourself, what should be a happy ride becomes a tad more concerning. Also rattlesnakes too. Didn't see any but you can't tell me there aren't any in the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcarneytx Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Figured I try a few different varieties. Rumpkin is the high bar, doubt anyone could beat it. St Arnold's limited releases might come close, though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
