(06/13/22)... Day 2 of the Jan. 6th Insurrection Committee Hearings! Tonight's elixir is this beer given by a friend from one of his many work journeys: Collective Arts Brewing "Ransack The Universe IPA" 6.8% ABV - Hazy orange color, ctrus hoppy aroma, low body, slight bitter citrus hoppy malt flavor, dry finish, and slight bitter hoppy aftertaste. Paired with random leftovers just to clear things out. Drank and dined while watching the film "The Card Counter" starring Oscar Isaac, Tiffany Haddish, Willem Dafoe and more streaming on @HBOMax. Continue to stay safe, get vaccinated or boostered, decide whether or not you want to wear a face covering, wash your hands, and drink plenty of liquids! . . . @Untappd @IndieBeer_ @LABrewers @CollectiveBrew #CanadianBeer #Ontario #IPA #CraftBeer #Beer #Cheers #BeersOfTheWorld #BeerPorn (at Silver Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/CexvN7-uEmE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#Repost @hophappyblog Parents gone wild! …as wild as parents can go when they have to pick the kids up at 4:30pm! Today the stars aligned where both my beautiful wife and I both had the whole day off with our son at day camp. So we spent the day at Grand Bend Beach working on our tans! No day out is complete without a quick visit to a brewery. We stopped @brewstersmillbrewery for a flight and glass on their brand new back patio. This place has patios for days… front and back! #grandbend #grandbendbeach #grandbendontario #patiobeers #craftbeerlove #craftbeerlovers #beercouple #drinktogether #ontariocraftbeer #beerstagram #craftbeer #craftbeercouple #drinklocal #drinklocalbeer #craftbeerlife #beerselfie #beertime #beercommunty #craftbeeraddict #oncraftbeer #canadianbeer https://www.instagram.com/p/CgE-2Ovrown/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Who said Saturday was just for the boys

Collective Arts - Radio the Mothership Double Dry Hopped Imperial IPA. *50 Shades of Hops* It's so rare to find one of our wonderful Ontario craft brews across the pond. When I came across this beacon of familiarity in a local bottle shop, I was more than happy to spend the £4.50 for 355mL of nostalgia. Not only was I proud to be supporting the importation of Canadian beer in the UK (please send more!) but I certainly got a bang for my buck - that bang being HOPS. The smell seems innocent enough, with a scent of concentrated tropical fruit juice along with wildflower honey and fresh bread. Alright, I will trust you, beer. Hop damn! At first taste, bitter hops penetrate the mouth with an immediate show of dominance, then back off with a sweet biscuity note on the tip of the tongue. What's my safe word? Enjoy this hop-heavy IPA Thai green curry or moose sausage.  You can find it at @offieandtoffee bottle shop in Bethnal Green. #beer #ontariocraftbeer #canadianbeer #collectiveartsbrewing #collectiveartsbeer #beergirl #beerblog #beerreview (at Shoreditch) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5ib9TXlOKi/?igshid=1r7w0tpdf5jx9

@sipssudsandsmokes #60secondbeerreview- #dailybeerreview- IPA NO. 6, SUDS - 4, is a 6.7% IPA with peaches, along with Wai Iti and Amarillo hops from @collectivebrew in Hamilton Ontario Canada. Must've misread the can as I thought it was made in WI.... Anyway, I get lots'o peach, from the fruit and the hops, and a nice touch of citrus. Super refreshing, and a really well done beer. #beer #craftbeer #podcaster #beerreview #craftbeerreview #beerme #beerisgood #beerpodcast #hops #hoppy #hoppybeer #ipa #canadianbeer #canart #cannedbeer #beerporn #drinkcraftbeer #beergeek #beernerd #drinkgoodbeer #drinklocal #drinkindependent #fruitbeer #peaches #waiitihops (at Madison, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/By9FoGrlz9d/?igshid=1dqc4ps2l7gwz

We just returned home after a three day camping trip on the Oregon coast. And I was settling in to watch tonight's Monday Night Football - but I decided to turn the sound down and get in a belated #VinylAndBeerSunday. I decided to spin the 1970 release from THE MOODY BLUES. From the information found on the internet, their sixth release entitled A QUESTION OF BALANCE was an attempt " to strip down their well-known lush, psychedelic sound in order to be able to better perform the songs in concert.". I don't know if that is true or not - because the music is classic MOODIES with wonderful melodies, thoughtful lyrics, and the Mellotron. This album contains one of my favorite tunes from the group - the elegant prog rock classic QUESTION. It's the perfect soundtrack to #NFL game. I am drinking a beer that I had featured before - and forgotten about it until I opened up my UnTapped App. The WILD IPA from CATEGORY 12 BREWING COMPANY in British Columbia is simply fantastic with lots of bitterness, wildness, and wonderful interplay with flavors in the background. It's the perfect beer for these far out tunes from a disappearing era of music. So....what are you listening to tonight? What are you drinking? #vinyl #vinylcollection #home #recordcollection #vinyllove #progrock #moodyblues #aquestionobalance #1970 #mellotron #britishcolumbia #canadianbeer @c12beer @sandandstain #beerstagram #craftbeer #wildipa #music #beermusic #mondaynightfootball (at Salem, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpQqNfdA_VZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=exgwab8yl7pr

(01/19/22)... Is it just me, or does the week seem slow when it starts with a Monday holiday? With the bar officially open while we are not quite free to FULLY roam uninhibited (masks and proof of vaccination and/or booster are mandatory in most businesses throughout the city of Los Angeles), tonight's elixir is this beer left at my place from a friend's travels for work: Collective Arts Brewing "Ransack The Universe IPA" 6.8% ABV - Hazy amber color, hoppy piney aroma, low body, citrus hoppy flavor, dry finish, and bitter citrus hoppy aftertaste. Paired with homemade Frank's Red Hot Sauce & fresh dill marinated chicken stir fry over jasmine rice (surprised the chicken didn't turn red). Drank and dined while watching the movie "Infinite" starring Mark Wahlberg, Chiwetel Ejiofor streaming on @ParamountPlus. Continue to stay safe, get vaccinated or boostered, wear a face covering, wash your hands, and drink plenty of liquids! . . . @Untappd @IndieBeer_ @LABrewers @CollectiveBrew #ArtPlusBrewing #CanadianBeer #IPA #CraftBeer #Beer #BeersOfTheWorld #BeerPorn #Cheers (at Silver Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/CY8e-qxryWV/?utm_medium=tumblr
