I have some Ommegang Witte (wheat ale) waiting at home that I will be tasting for the first time this weekend. I love the Ommegang brewery hennepin and abbey ale so I saw this in the store and picked up a 6-pack. Their abbey ale is a kicker and I think it has around 10% alcohol content!
I also will be enjoying some refreshing Asahi superdry and Hopewell First Lager. Nothing fancy about the Asahi, but I love the clean and crisp taste of the beer. The Hopewell is rather nice with a bit of a citrus flavor and good amount of carbonation.
What about you? Cheers!

Yuengling Black and Tan, my goto beer when I can afford to drink now.
Took me a LONG time to find an American beer I could drink, I enjoy it. Had a few decent crafts this past year, just too #%&*$# expensive. Some garbage also...sorry folks BEER, at least for me, doesn't contain chocolate, coffee, grapefruit, mango, blueberry ad nauseum.

None! There are three Powerful reasons I don't drink alcohol anymore. 1. When I was walking 8 miles home (my choice) on an Autumn evening after spending a week in jail as one of the many results of my drinking, I looked up and said, "Somethings got to change", and from that moment on the Good Lord took the taste for alcohol from me over 25 years ago, and I was not Saved or even seeking God at the time . All honor and Glory and Praise to Him for blessing me so. 2. My stupid and irresponsible actions while drinking have cost me more money than anything else in my entire life (to the tune of over 300,000$) and also 5 years without my Drivers License. Thank the good Lord I never killed or hurt anyone(well, maybe a few hurt in fights) except a cut eyebrow and a bruised knee when I blacked out at the wheel of my VW Bug with 4 friends in the car and hit a telephone pole broadside. I lost a Bug and bought a telephone pole, worst deal I ever made! 3. Alcohol is poison to the human body, look it up if you don't think so. First, you are probably saying "what a Dumb Ass!" and yes I was as this all happened by the time I was 26 years old. To anyone who can be a social drinker and have one here & there, well that is just fine, but if alcohol is killing you in any of the many ways that it can, then I highly recommend the alternative. Not trying to bring down your thread, but just remember alcohol is poison to your physical body and can be quite destructive if abused. Please drink sparingly and infrequently and most important, responsibly. Cheers! S!Blade<><

Just had some Vinique, and am about to do some Repasado. Looking forward to my favorite beer sometime this weekend--Belgian! Not Belgian style but BELGIAN! VIVE LES BELGES!
It is, after all, my 6th wedding anniversary so there will be alot of celebratory toasts going on!

Today I’m going to a fly-in at the Military Aviation Museum at Virginia Beach Virginia and the theme is “Biplanes and Brews”. Air show with lots of WW I airplanes and local breweries. I won’t be flying that day, so I’ll have some of the local brews. https://militaryaviationmuseum.org/airshows/biplanes-and-brews/

Heineken followed by a spiced Rum and Coke. I do like a night at the Westerham brewery though, ales rock! https://westerhambrewery.co.uk/
That Farrow bloke you executed today, are you sure he's dead? Well I chopped his head off, that usually does the trick. Yes, don't get clever with me Baldrick. I just thought you might have lopped off a leg or something by mistake. No, the thing I chopped off had a nose.

Sign me up for none. The ratio of terrible alcohol end effects vs redeeming qualities is too high.
