Can Do Brew American Style Lager, brewed by Rhinelander Brewing. Something light and refreshing for this beastly hot and humid weather.

I'll see your American piss, and raise you Zywiec Porter Alc. 9.5% by vol. :wacko:

Nice! I've seen the beer at a couple of retailers here but never the porter.

 

Da mi pivo! :hail: (Mother's [RIP] family were Poles - grandpa tought me that one.)

Very close. It's 'daj mi piwo.' (give me beer)

Spent the afternoon at Khoffner Brewing in Ft. Lauderdale, they grill up some hot dog or sausages on Sundays free for one and all. Rauf Khoffner is a third generation brewer that specializes in German beers brewed per Reitheitgesbot ( German pure brewing laws), but will go all over the map style wise. Started with a couple of lagers, but got turned to a Key Lime IPA that was light on both the limes and hops, very refreshing stuff. 4 pints and 2 hot dogs later, I was ready to go. Good crowd, including an older couple who brought their Scottish Terrier, who was served a dog dish of water by the bartender. Lovely place to stop for a pint. Edited by pjbear05

Picon Punch, a traditional Basque-American drink, and a staple of Northern Nevada night life.

 

The history: http://www.ediblerenotahoe.com/editorial/119-drinks-2017/1385-drinks17-a-story-with-punch

 

 

The recipe:

 

Build in a highball or collins glass filled with ice.

Add Amer Picon and grenadine, then give a quick stir.

Top with club soda, then the brandy float.

Garnish with a lemon rind twist.

Earlier in the week Total Wine email advised me that "truckloads" of beer from Great Lakes Brewing out of Cleveland would be in the stores. Stopped in yesterday and was not disappointed. Bells was also showing up strong, but still too early for Double Cream Stout. Grabbed a six of GLBC Dortmunder Gold and did a six mix of Ed Fitz Porter, Bells Amber, and some Bells Oktoberfest orphans. :hail: Edited by pjbear05

Got some Fat Tire amber ale from New Belgium for the night. Been meaning to try New Belgium brew for a while, impressed so far.

Tasty stuff, and very popular out here.

Very much so. I drank three of those and cracked open a few Voodoo Ranger IPAs. Really fantastic stuff.
