Saint Arnold - Spring Bock, 6.9% Alc. 👍

Managed to find a six-pack still hanging around at Total Wine. Out of an unusual act of generosity for a sith lord, I left the three remaining singles for other poor, hapless souls jonesing for this seasonal brew that might better be called Saint Arnold's Crack.

Awesomeness. For best results, let those warm up just a little before quaffing, imo.

Belgian beer is best beer. It is known.

In addition to letting them warm up a little, pour off about 3/4 of the bottle, then take the bottle between your two hands and roll it back and forth to stir up the sediment, and then pour the rest into your glass.  And those ales should go into something like this:

Have you gotten any Rochefort 10’s or Abt 12’s yet?

interesting move going to one of the worst breweries in town. 

That is true.  Good location, pretty good setup all around, but the beer was meh.  Here's to hoping Marco fixes things.

Stream of recent breweries/beers I visited in the LA area a couple of weeks ago.  Few pics, b/c I did not take pics of all the beers I drank :)

Santa Monica Brew Works - Inclined West Coast IPA - Pretty good WC - they are a gratuity free establishment, so $9.50 for a 20oz pint was not so bad.
Malibu  Brewing Company - First Point IPA, Daughter had Happy Days Honey Blonde.  Both were very good.  And a nice reward after a 2+ hour hike in the Santa Monica Mountans.

Stone IPA - 19.2 oz can at Dodger Stadium - I only mention it because it was $19.  Bargain :/. No pics of the Stone, but I had a good seat...

Culture Brewing - Manhattan Beach Location - Mosaic IPA - it was fantastic.

Golden Road Brewing - Anaheim location - Ride On West Coast IPA - it was "ok" for a California IPA.  I may be giving it a higher grade than it deserved because it was a beer I enjoyed after a 13 hour day at DisneyLand.  A Celis might have tasted good after that.  Daughter had the blonde ale.

Monkish Brewing - stopped here after hiking in Rancho Palos Verdes and before heading to LAX.  Very high quality.  I had the Looks IPA, IIRC.  DD had a Hazy.

Riverfront Rendezvous in Stevens Point,  WI. Bluegrass with Armchair Boogie, one of many great free bands to go with local beer over three days of festival. Happy Fourth to all. 175167805224613300999110579947.thumb.jpg.e6b7f05a41f0cfeb4a665e30ef8f50a9.jpg
