What are you drinking right now?

Finally an epidemic I can look forward to!
Beer mugs
or an epidemic that really IS one >_>
 
this is the first pour. Obviously, it needs to clean up through time and a couple of more pours, but it tastes good. Simple, very sessionable

Vienna Lager called "Saying Goodbye" for obvious reasons.
 
Just had a Kona Big Wave (yes, it’s SUMMER in Alabama). Had a pint of Paulaner Hefeweizen earlier to prime the pump. I see a Truck Stop Honey Brown in the near future with dinner.
I really like thier hanalei ipa. just the right amount of tropical fruit but still hoppy.
 
I can see now why people like to do a SMASH Vienna. I was going to get close, but the Alphas in my Saaz hops were really low. I had a 1/2 oz of Hallertau laying around, and it got me into the upper 20s Ibus. I like the combination a lot, but also thinking how nice it would be to have a shitload of Saaz.
 
I've been drinking less and less, mostly because I had a long bad cold about 30 days and very fatigued so my keg's are full, as a matter of fact I have one keg finished but not chilling, I've been wanting to brew but what's the point lol

Enjoy the fruits of your labor. Get rested, and enjoy what you can. Stange things happen when we get thrown a curveball out of nowhere.
 
I've been enjoying the look of Josh's beer too. I like a good ESB with some 70SRM English Crystal in it. One of these days, I am going to do another one. After this beer kicks, I really want to do a Lemon Saison though. I think the HB store has a way for me to get the yeast I want as the French Saison Yeast is sometimes difficult to get.

Norfolk Nog from official clone extract kit by Woodfordes. So it is true; the two tins in at least some of the kits in this series are different. The first tin was very deep ruby that tasted like a Porter with dark fruit notes. This batch from the second tin is six weeks old and even though I deliberately over watered it a little coming out at 3.5% ABV has a distinct treacly taste - the head on the first pour (above) from 2 litre bottle was out of this world.

The top up.

I have never actually tasted the original (not sold locally) but it has won awards. I have tried two of their other beers and kits though and both were good matches with consistent quality. So I'll combine the two tins next time and see how that compares then maybe order a mini-keg from the brewery.
 
Sheep Mullet, a9% dipa from Hardywood in Richmond, VA, near where @Sunfire96 is at. Moderately hoppy, with a nice tangerine note, and unsurprisingly a little boozy. Pretty good.

I was shocked at the great selection at this tiny 7-11 in Lexington VA, a stop as I head North.
