Nice job today, fellow Arizonians.

I glanced at a 15% stout at PPLD (no surprise), but opted for a Drekker smoothie sour instead.... pretty perfect after yard work on a 95° day.

Also grabbed a Knob Creek rye single barrel store pick and their smoked maple... and another EC Toasted Barrel. It was a good afternoon. :D

Nice day! I don't understand the "smoothie" beers. I will have to find one as I've never had one.

I really like their food at PPLD. Always a choice for me when I'm up there. I was sad that Prescott Station closed. :(

The Drekker sour I had today was pretty damn thirst quenching... they're heavily fruited, so you're really not even drinking a beer at that point.

Prescott Station was good, kind of surprised they didn't make it... seemed like they were always busy.

Yeah they ALWAYS seemed busy. I had elk tacos there once and they were awesome. I like The Office too for something easy.

I plan to make it up there sometime this summer once I get through some work stuff. Need to beat the heat here!

I did a Lumberyard IPA at Longhorn Steakhouse for lunch.

Didn't want to drink too much alcohol today.

Said 118° on my car thermometer.

Makers Mark for the fights

Heh, I was just thinking the same... time to get up to 7000'. :D

I love it though... currently 95 and 'feels like' 91 with the 11% humidity.

I really need to try it... it's kind of sad I haven't by now, but it's basically the victim of being too available all the time.

Did you figure out how to have "Two TVs" going for this?!?!?!?!

Found a spot nearby pouring crowlers of Beachwood Amalgamator so I'm pretty much in hawg heaven.

Also marked safe from the start of my first monsoon season (reason for the weird lighting).

About to pour my first diet A&W Root Beer with Bumbu Rum and 90 proof coconut rum. It’s so good! 10 days til Jamaica!!

Just had Bumbu rum for the first time maybe 6 months ago... a local bar had made a girl scout cookie drink with I believe chocolate vodka and peppermint schnapps and also had a somoa cookie in the works. Don't remember what all they used, but included that rum.... it was delicious and quite dangerous.

After having the bright idea of going to the zoo today (I was at least smart to enough to be there when they opened up at 9:30 and was out at 12:30), and then running all over town in a roofless Jeep, I’m forgoing my usual bourbon or rum (which I like to turn to on summer days) and am working my second Kettle and soda with lemon at my local watering hole.

And I had a couple of mojitos when I stopped for a bite to eat a little while ago, with a big glass of water on the side.
