Solid beer , pretty cheap too .. really available in most areas too . If you can ever get some St Bernardis Apt 12 it’s superb. A solid Oct Fedt beer is sierra Nevadas Oktoberfest beer .My favorite.
Has a great NE IPA last week , Ursa Minor brewery in Duluth Mn … Galactic Face Slap .
Also New Belgium’s Honey Orange Tripel is great

A guy was nice enough to send me a Pliny the Elder from California. This is a world class rate imperial ipa. It’s a unicorn beer for most of the country. I have to say idk what I was expecting but I’ve had a lot of this style of beer I enjoyed more. It’s good don’t get me wrong I just don’t know what made it rate 100 on beer advocate.
Pliny was a great beer when craft beer was a young thing. The beer scene has improved greatly since that time. I like Pliny, but don’t pine for it. Too many good beers to hunt for beers these days.
I got burned out on pumpkin ale several years ago but I still buy some every Fall. I have to admit, Kentucky Pumpkin Barrel Ale is delicious. 10% alc/vol.
I was just gifted two bottles of Pliny the Elder. Gonna chill and hope it’s worth the several years wait.
Brodgar Bere. Earthy. Rye taste. Distinct. Awesome malts. Checked in as "Historic Beer - Other" on Untappd. Part of early September Scottish haul. Purchased at Peedie bottle shop in Kirkwall, Orkney, Scotland.
Another celebratory beer: Tucher Original Nürnberger Rotbier. Roasty malts. Slightly aged. Excellent!
Go Cats!

Benediktiner Weissbier. Oh la la. Gorgeous cloud. Nice banana accent. Lovely.
Another good wheat: Krombacher Weizen vom Faß (from keg or on draft). Much better than bottled.
Had some Snakes in a Barrel for an after Thanksgiving meal drink. That is a good stout.
Hit up 5 different breweries here in Bamberg. Two noted for smoked beers -- Aecht Schlenkerla and Spezial. Although Schlenkerla is more familiar to US beer drinkers, I personally thought Spezial brews a better product.
At any rate, Bamberg is truly a beer drinkers' city. Numerous cool and historical stuff.

Here's another. Reh-Bier or "Deer Beer".
Ha ha, just the name translated. It's a Munich Dark Lager. Malty. Not bad. Paid around $1.30 for a bottle including deposit.
