Greatly enjoyed our BYOB of “The Cuir”, one of our favorites from The Bruery, with our delicious Italian dinner for Adam’s birthday! Cheers!

Burly Gourd, Oude Tart, Loakal Red, Birra Blasta, Snicklefritz, and 4 Calling Birds at Blind Lady Ale House. All great! Wished we had gone for the Rue lunch tasting where patrons were surprised with bonus Black Tuesday and Wanderer! Next year!

Grey Monday on a Sunny Tuesday

While in Long Beach, saw a Beachwood BBQ (Seal Beach) tweet that Grey Monday on cask from The Bruery was just tapped, so we headed that way. Per their tweet, Grey Monday is Black Tuesday with hazelnuts. Yummy! Served in a port glass, and tasted more like port wine than beer! Delicious! They also had many other great selections. We also tasted Telegraph Rye Pale Ale and Birra Blasta from The Bruery, all paired with a fried green tomato sandwich!

The Cuir from The Bruery

We recently brought a bottle of The Cuir from The Bruery to enjoy with dinner at the local Italian restaurant… No corkage fee since it was beer, not wine. Aged in bourbon barrels and 14.5%, what’s the difference?? Well, we like beer better! This was one of my favorite beers of the year!

Sharing a bottle before heading down to wander 30th on 30th. 10%abv helps, but it is too sweet for my taste.

A few beers found in the back of the fridge

If your refrigerator is like mine, there is beer in it. You can’t see all the beer due to there being beers in front of other beers…not a bad thing…but you often don’t fully know your beer inventory at a given moment. While rummaging around in search of something to quench my thirst…I stumbled across a few old ones close to being expired…possibly rancid. I took it upon myself to drink them to save others from the horror of an expired beer. Yep….taking one for the team you might say.

The Bruery's - Black Orchard

Started with a The Bruery’s Black Orchard. What they describe as a black wheat ale. Not certain I tasted “freshly baked cake”…but I’m also not certain I want that in my beer…

Port Brewing - Midnight Sessions

Then found an even older beer; Port Brewing’s Midnight Sessions…something I had not seen since childhood…ok…maybe that was a slight exaggeration..but not since early this year at least. I have heard a batch will be out again soon….
