Had a Fat Tug IPA from Driftwood last night. Such a great beer. It was the first time I'd had it so the dryness caught me a bit off guard at first. The bottle disappeared some quick.

Last night I worked through a 6er of a Simple malt sample pack (Brasseurs Illimités). Golding Pale Ale won the night.

Merry Christmas yourself!
My Mrs. outdid herself this year with some smuggled-to-PEI beers... I'll have to start a thread once I get some pics.
Tonight, I think I'll just have a Gahan IPA - no official review for my site needed. I need a rest!

Finally having my first beer of the day (shameful I know) DFH clone with substitutions so I'm calling it Robfish Head 60. It's my first all grain (mostly grain, lol - topped up with some LME) and it tastes awesome.

I'm having an IESB tonight. And lots of wine. I'll have the IESBs and spruce to Charlottetown either tomorrow or Tuesday - just waiting on a call with plans for tomorrow night before I decide.
Brewing right now: whatever is going on tap at Stillwell in a few weeks.

La Trappe Triple for me. Not as good as I remember it, but evoking lovely memories of John Shippey's La Trapped.

Actually, it was a 2 beer night after a day X-Country skiing. First up was a Tree Hop Head, :headbang:
then it was a Lost Coast Winterbraun. :spilly:

Both delicious in their own way, and we are now well melted after a dip in the hot tub.

Cheers,

JLC

I heartily agree - in fact I think I like it better than Arrogant Bastard. I had my last Ruination & Levitation last night.
