I'm enjoying one of these tonight. I learned this today. Jesuit Brother Ambroise was apparently Canada's first recorded brewer. What is it with religious folks making beer? The Belgian monastery make crazy potent beer, and now this guy?

I think I've heard about quite a few monastaries making beer or wine, it does appear to be a "thing". Maybe it keeps the lights on.

Or.. lights off? For the meditation.

Keeps that water bill paid anyhow, they seem to garden often.

Oh god gross. I do not have a discerning palate but there's still something wholesome to any kind of craft beer whereas a Bud, Coors, Miller, etc tastes sickly and unpleasant. I mean I drink almost entirely malt liquor but that's because I drink for effect and don't care to spend more. After a certain volume it tastes fine anyway. Except corporate piss beers are like water to me so I'd have to force myself to chug them continuously to get anything but a vague buzz.

I feel the same way about Molson and Labatt.

Despite people up here talking smack about American beer, there is a TON of great beer south of us.

Dogfish Head in Delaware, Rogue in Oregon, the gagillion beers Sam Adams make, Alchemist in Vermont. Those are just a few breweries from whom I've sampled their stuff. I like Lakefront in Wisconsin as well. Americans make the best IPAs. Dogfish with their 60 minute, Alchemist with their Focal Banger, they're just awesome.

There's also this one.

I'm just drinking bloody marys again anyways.

Beer doesn't cut it some weeks.

Sometimes I need to remind myself that I want a house on 10 acres in the next 10 years, way more than I want an easy breezy low responsibility career now. So like.. buck up, buttercup. Whiny little bitch. Get **** done, son. House on 10 acres. Be a sheep or live the dream?

Hoppy IPAs are my fave but lazy beer companies need to cut it out with the "skip filtration and call it hazy" trend. I mostly drink tequila these days though, was sick of the beer gut.

I don't usually go for IPA's, but I went full "when in Rome" at the Ballast Point brewery in SD and had 3 or 4 sculpins
They had a big expansion a few years ago and have been pretty wack ever since.

Had some really exciting new acquisitions today after a day trip to a tourist trap not too far.
