Not much else to be said other than this is the first time I’ve had this beer and, yes, it’s as good as advertised.

.1840 Brewing Company is now available at my local grocery store. That’s it. That’s the whole tweet. #SundayFunday

I’ve been relatively quiet as of late, but I wanted (no, needed to) to check in with a #WiBeerWednesday beer. Raised Grain Brewing knocked this West Coast IPA out of the park. I keep going into the basement beer fridge to get an Oktoberfest beer and (almost) always opt for this instead.

I went into this evening expecting to purchase and try the Dogfish Head Utopias Barrel-Aged Worldwide Stout for the very first time, but I ended up springing for the LionsTailBrew Pacific Waves West Coast IPA. No remorse. No regrets. Happy #WiBeerWednesday.

If there’s a better local Oktoberfest beer, I have yet to try it. Great stuff from 1840 Brewing Company.

I miss the days when Raised Grain Brewing put out anniversary stout 4-packs in cans, but they’ve made up for it by making the best imperial stout I’ve had in quite awhile. 🔥 🔥 🔥

I haven’t had a really good doppelbock in a while, so I figured there’s no better time than right now. This is the last Raised Grain Brewing Locked Horns I have in the beer fridge, and it (more than) fits the bill on this #WiBeerWednesday. Happy Wednesday, y’all!

Every year I buy this beer, and every year it either meets or exceeds my expectations. (Don’t hate on the subpar pour. Just too excited for my first RG Haze Before the Storm of the year. 😂)

First time trying Ocononomoc’s one (and only?) brewery: brewfinity. Prettay, prettay good IPA. Looking forward to trying more. 🍻

I couldn’t pick a better beer to highlight after two-plus years off this app than the Raised Grain Brewing Shrinkage Cold IPA. Probably my favorite style of beer right now, and made by a Waukesha brewery. Even if the Seinfeld reference isn’t intentional, I love, love, love this beer.

This one had me at “West Coast-style…” I’ve never tried anything from Phase Three Brewing before, but the fact that it’s brewed with honey puts it over the top for me. Happy Friday, all! Celebrate accordingly. 🍻

Happy St. Patrick’s Day to you and yours. Hope you are enjoying your Sunday afternoon as much as I am. Sláinte!

This is 40. Ringing in four decades (!) with my go-to beer right now. I fully believe (but can’t confirm) that drinking too much of it will make you spend all your money on pull tabs and hang from chandeliers. Not your everyday IPA, indeed.

Today’s my Friday, so this calls for a celebration. Cheers, y’all, and recognize that by the time you see this, I’ll already be asleep in my recliner.

What else is there to say other than #thisismycrew?

Sundays are for... Bavarian-style lagers? I've never tried this unfiltered, unpasteurized offering from UrbanChestnutBrewing before, but it's an absolute winner. Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everybody!

Best West Coast IPA I've enjoyed in some time. Kudos, LionsTailBrew!

I don't post as much as I used to, but I do have to shout out Raised Grain Brewing for its "Ten Years of Beers" celebration this year. First up is a re-release of the Hop Doctor Imperial IPA, an "oldie" that I couldn't wait to try again. Can't wait to see what else they bring back!

Happy Maibock Season! Celebrate accordingly.

Currently 63 and sunny. Perfect have-a-beer-on-the-front-porch weather (for early March in Wisconsin).
