A Three Day Weekend of Beer & Backyards

Yo. Thanks for being here with me.

If you are in the States and don’t have a service industry job, you just might have a three day weekend going on right now.

So let my favorite type of drinking rage on: Backyard Beers!

Of course, Pints & Panels has your pairing guide:

I wonder if a rocket pop would actually make a Berliner Weisse enjoyable? Only one way to find out, I suppose.

Label Buy Of The Week

Well done 4Hands Brewing, getting a colab going with a movie studio (and Narrow Gauge Beer for this one).

Side Note: I was going to pull this from the newsletter when I realized that that one douchebag at 4Hands (“JD” formerly at Boulevard Brewing) might have something to do with this. Then I thought I was being small by doing that, so I left it in.

Anyway, it’s a rad label. Look for it if you’re in the Kansas City area or whatever.

Links To Beer

• David Nilsen wrote a piece for Pellicle Mag, searching for the beer style in no-man’s-land: The American Porter.

• Beer Twitter thread Of The Week goes to Em Sauter asking what is your “time travel beer” - a beer that takes you back to a different beer era. Sadly, Pliny is becoming that - it’s a great Palate Reset Beer too.

Speaking of Russian River, there is a new RR beer in cans! - “Zumo Wrestling”:

You can order online if you are in the right place. ALSO, DDH Pliny in cans will be available online later this week.

Go ahead and try different beer & BBcue corn pairings this weekend and let me know how it goes, I will be doing the same.

Thank you for the read! Have a great week with your beers.
