Damn dude. It's never just one thing but all the things eh? Good luck with it all! |
They were all my decisions, some of them not easy to make. But I'm excited for the future. New job, new city, loads of cash in the bank from the sale... even looks like I've landed my first DJ gig in about four years. |

Broke up with my fiancée.
Selling my house.
Found a new job.
Moving to Manchester. |
Well, then...I'm guessing each one has some relationship to the other?
I just ended a long-term relationship earlier this month myself, and while there's always a sense of loss when even a bad relationship ends, the dominant feeling I walked away with was one of overwhelming relief that it's finally behind me. |

| Yeah, one followed another. I wanted a complete change of scenery and a fresh start. And while there is a sense of loss, and a bit of a weird feeling not having someone to do stuff with on a sunny Sunday afternoon, things have been working out pretty well so far. |

Yeah, polish lager. It’s ok, don’t drink much of those these days but when I do it’s almost exclusively Hacker-Pschorr or hofbrau. You definitely should get into IPAs and other craft, especially local. Man I love beer..
I used to drink a lot of juicy ass, but when sparklepuff came out my gawdd. My gf drinks a lot of their milkshake IPA but I can’t remember the name. Chocolate manifesto around winter time. I think flying monkeys might be the most reviewed brewery in my beer journals |
Had some sparklepuff, its kind of mindblowing to me; it seems like some sort of innovation(im not a ipa drinker). Wouldn't know its 10.2% abv, doesnt even seem like 6% barely. Its drinks like a girly fizzy radler but obviously has some more complexity with the finish. cut up some peach slices to compliment it. I think its great but im still into my warka for almost half the price for a glass bottle because I love the tatse of honey :}. Interesting stuff though, may pick it up seldomly, thanks.
how many cans do you go through in a session? |

definitely no to the radler comparison.
@szm
tasting notes are pretty good for not drinking any IPAs. this type has really light malt so its mostly hops your tasting, which are different to lager hops. body is full as
i try not to drink more than 2. it's pricey but i would probably drink 5-6 warka for 2 sparkle puff, so i wouldn't really save money there.
you got to keep expanding your beer horizons. come fall/winter 10% stouts, nothing better.
also, did have 5 tyskie on the beach yesterday within like 2 hours |

yea I definitely tastes a lot of peachy mango notes in that beer, it was delicious, im also a very sensitive when it comes to taste, idk.
I dislike tyskie but everyone around me loves it; its like a budget stella but with a much more balanced finish (I hate stella)there is that specific taste in both those beers I dont know what it is, its like a perfume taste, yea that taste.
6 warka? hot damn. Yea ill try more of these IPAS. I'll get back to you if I find something I like or if u have any other recommendations im in.
update: I bought a few more sparklepuffs to show my brother, there must be some sort of variance because the taste was a little less fruity and more balanced this time around, and I had a lot of sediment inside this time where as last time I had zero, it was still excellent, enjoyed it a little more the second time around. He enjoyed it quite a bit too. I only wish I had chunks last time around, long live CHUNKS. |

bless the unfiltered beers. i've just finished a thursday - monday bender with 3 beach days, a brewery day and a visit to a friends. yesterday i started my beach day with sparkle puff to kick things off then went for a cider before finishing off with a few hacker-pschor. it's weird you don't like tyskie, i think it's the best polish beer that you can find here. lezajsk is pretty cool too, has a chocolaty taste. hopefully carlsburg or whoever doesn't buy them all out and change the recipes for contract brewing.
i think that style of IPA (new england?) is more of a 'juicy' taste. overall i think much better and more consistent as compared to the maltier ones using 'pine' tasting hops. |

Have you had Tropicalia ?? It is a staple in fridges in Atlanta. It is a summer brew. |

Highly overlooked is having less volume of liquid for same effect, especially when out.
I honestly feel better after drinking stronger beers cuz I’m seldom pushing the capacity of my gut. Which was a mess/is a mess after some stupid meal yesterday |
