Supporting a local microbrewery- #manaBrewing in Oakdale MN. Had the Peanut Butter Porter
Very roasty peanut lead but a disappointing thin and flat body. The nitro burned out fast - server seemed to struggle with getting a proper pour. Maybe a better pour would net a better taste.
My niece's husband has set up a shop for his home brewed beers. I rave about these beers to anyone who'll listen because they are EXCELLENT!
The supply is limited and the website shop is only open at weekends.

Three fave craft brewers of my thirsty youth are no more , multiple #WestCoast #IPA makers shut #microbrew operations and pubs due to economics & some related labor issues ...
The losses to palette include iconic Anchor Christmas Ale, Rogue Dead Guy Ale and 21st Amendment Brew Free Or Die Blood Orange IPA
Some hope and rumors exist that oldest brand of three acquired from #Sapporo by a Greek style yogurt maker may reappear someday... But not likely in historic home of #SanFrancisco since late 1800s

A perfect Friday night. Passed Halloween with the kiddo and spouse, now a Robinsons Brewery Trooper IPA and a Warhammer 40k tournament stream from Australia. #friday #halloween #microbrew #beer #warhammer40k
Visit cut short but still had time to stop at
#lakemonsterBrewing for a run of the mill oatmeal #stout - heavy oat lead, sweet lactose
#blackStackBrewing for a Late to the Party Festbier - light and very crushable, a right proper Oktoberfest in proper dimple glassware!
It's a peaceful life #microbrew #warhammer #warhammer40k a microbrew and painting minis alone at night is the most 39yo thing I've done
Build a good Foundation and everything else is easy, they say.
#arbeiterBrewing Foundation 2024 sets the evening on solid ground. #barrelAged imperial #stout is sweet and bourbon forward, a hint of licorice and a snappy boozy finish. 11.3%

I'm at the age that I have new medications, and now beer, even ones I used to like, is no longer that appealing. Not all alcohol, just the beers for now. -_-

Went to Prince Edward County last weekend and visited several micro-breweries. It's a lovely, rural countryside. Brought several cans home to sample. This one had an unexpected lump with the beer sediment at the bottom of the can. A very soggy, very dead horsefly.
Of course, it was in the last sip.
Ewww!
Trying out Accident in Hubbard’s Cave from Une Annee Brewery in Niles, IL
This can had an accident of its own, and it’s a 2020-1, so it may be a bit off, and crazy sedimented, but it’s still a nice sweet slightly boozy stout. Will have to try the second can if I survive!

Another example of the boom and bust we’re seeing recently in #Asheville
Our favorite micro-brewery, where I get my semi-annual growler, is closing 2 of its 3 locations. They have the BEST coffee porter.
I would imagine much of this was the tourist-funded huge expanse into the South Slope, which doesn’t seem to be panning out for many people. What a shame.
Another beer that (like a Blonde Stout) provides a shock when poured into a glass, and another shock when you take a sip: Abita's Helles Doppelbock. It does taste exactly like you'd guess from the name, though: sharp, bubbly, and clean like a helles, but caramel malty like a doppelbock. I like it, but from the reviews on Beer Advocate is appears to not be everyone's cup of tea. Or beer.

I'm legit excited about this opening. We need more microbreweries focused on german & austrian lager beers

#Friday brew by the Cervecería Allende from #Mexico who NAILED the Belgian style of beer. Wow beautiful taste. #beer #brew #microbrew
This is the American made “Czech Style” dark lager that motivated me to try the real thing. I love everything I've tried from Moonlight Brewing, including this. It has some similarities to the Praga Dark Lager, including the red color and a crusty bread nose and taste. But it's a lot lighter, both in appearance and taste; I'd be reluctant to characterize it as a “Dark” at all. It seemed simpler as a well; not quite as many flavors in the mix. I'd call the Moonlight more refreshing in hot weather, while the Praga a better late-night fireside beer.
I actually tasted the Moonlight 4 weeks ago; I need to put these two side-by-side for a fair comparison. But it's hard not to note that really excellent American-made European-style beers run over $5/can, compared to $2/bottle for an actual #CzechBeer.
Complete with Bronze medal 🥉 award winning local Twin City Blonde Ale. One of a number award winning beers from the three local brewers. #brewery #microbrew
5 yrs after being sold to Japanese conglomerate #Sapporo and 3 yrs after unionizing, #SanFrancisco's beloved #AnchorSteam a #microbrew pioneer rebuilt by #FritzMaytag in the 1970s, announces it will end all #beer brewing operations after 127 years and shutter copper kettle #PotreroHill facility and enter #Liquidation within 60 days...
