Aight... I feel pretty lucky to get some real deal west coast type brews over here in southwest Georgia. Gotta share these because they're super limited. One keg was made of each. 

They turned out a bad ass double IPA. I guess it's called Pretoria Fields Double IPA. 8.2% ABV Kevin's description on it is "Piney, Stonefruit, Dank" 

I'll agree and throw in that it's a bit more complex than just that. Nice carbonation and finish for a double. Maybe even just a little hint of toasty like a stout. I hope it makes it for production. Damn good stuff!20190309_135200.thumb.jpg.cdef6111cbeab711d8f1a56b739e1cce.jpg

 

Then I tried the Pretoria Fields Hazy Brett IPA 6.2% ABV with Kevin's description being "Tropical, Funky, Citrus" 

Idk about funky, whatever that tastes like. Haha. Tropical and citrus definitely fits the bill though.

Damn! This brewery has got to add some tanks and expand soon. They only sell to outside stores 5 brews. They keep kicking out these limited runs of such great stuff but a keg or two and they're gone.

You have done a damn good job of advertising for Pretoria Fields. If ever I'm in southern Georgia I'll definitely visit

So have you with Listermann. 

I'll say this, I'll be super disappointed if you head south and miss a shot at some Rye Charles or Walkers Station Stout. My treat if you do make it this way. 

Idk. I'm pretty proud that we have such a great spot down here with world class brewers creating these beers. The head brewer, Kevin came down here from BlueJacket in D.C. and the brew master Eric of course was the head brewer of Russian River on the west coast.

They introduced 5 brews yesterday. I missed out on 3. They sold those three all last night. A satsouma bright that was like 7.4% that I really wanted to try. Had no idea it would sell in one evening though. Something with strawberries, maybe a gose, idk because I never saw it and an Irish red. 

I think they're becoming like Russian River with a cult following, where you need to be in the know and catch their special stuff like RR's Pliny the Younger, the day of.  I was in the know and still missed some of rhe releases! Like 15 hours late. 

I tried my damnedest to get a crowler of the double IPA today. No joy. And here I thought I was special! Hahaha. I should have took in a jug and just kept buying pints and pouring them in. After two I couldn't think of smart stuff like that idea though. xD

Went up to the Windsor RRB and didn’t see Mind Circus on the board? I just went with the standby  Redemption. Also had a Little White Lie (outstanding) and a taster of the O40She’s So Italian a kettle sour (don't love sours, so not my favorite).

In reverence to St. Paddys day, Listermann brewed a batch of Shamrock Shake - Pot O' Gold edition..........they brewed it with actual Lucky Charms cereal lol.

It's pretty darn good too. Tastes like a sweet Marshallowy/Oat just like the cereal

Intriguing, not a big cereal fan, but a huge beer fan. Ah F it! I’d drink it......who am I kidding.

Well, no secret because I already said somewhere else as I was spitting my beer out laughing at Doug Howell...

 I was at an Albany Symphony Orchestra Fundraiser tonight at Pretoria Fields. 3rd Annual St. Patrick's Day Celebration. 

Had a friggen spectacular time!

There was a world class bag piper there. Retired Marine, who is now the director of the Albany YMCA. Said he never thought he would retire here as an Ohioan, but, here he is. He can say y'all and pull it off! Un-friggen-believable from an Ohioan. Lol

 

Started to shotgun the Crowler. 32oz. Of Rye Charles in 5 seconds... Idk. Lol15527086973707109143189297925008.jpg

Not really beer related, but... You once posted some Pabst Blue Ribbon. 

 

Have you seen that Pabst created a whiskey? The claim is "aged 5 seconds" lol

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.maxim.com/.amp/food-drink/pabst-blue-ribbon-pbr-whiskey-2019-3

Gotta say... I'm actually a little intrigued by the prospect. 

Still liking the Michter's at the moment and not thinking Pabst is gonna be close, but, probably will buy... Just because

Aged 5 seconds? So the whole process for a bottle is less than a minute. About 45-50 seconds to piss in the bottle, then aged for 5 more seconds.  

It took me months to knock back that 30 pack. Might take me a year to finish one of those handles.

Don't think I could eat the Kangaroo, and jackalope isn't even a real thing. 

 Everything else I'd give a shot.

I'd be careful at that place if they're offering jackalope. The roo may be warf rat and etc. on the other stuff.
