Charles: Jesseppi G. I did both the bacon jam and the hot honey pepperoni, two of my favorites.
Charles is drinking a Black Butte XXXVIII by Deschutes Brewery at Rockwell's Neighborhood Grill
There was a time I enjoyed vintages of this beer nearly every year, but I haven't come across it since 2020. This is wonderfully complex and flavorful, with tart fruit flavors, orange, roasty malts, cocoa, and chocolate. Excellent. I am glad to find it.

Charles is drinking a Working for the Weekend by Spiteful Brewing at Piccadilly Pub
This may be a record for me, three IPAs in one week. This one I have had before, though a while ago, and it's a solid everyday IPA. It has nice tropical fruit flavors, is malty and only slightly bitter, and will be perfect with my pulled pork sandwich.

Charles is drinking an Oaked Money Barrel Peach Brandy D.B.V.S.O.J. by Revolution Brewing at Revolution Production Brewery & Taproom
I decided to take advantage of two Birthday Rewards today, one for some outstanding pizza slices from Zazas & the other for this beautiful Barleywine from Revolution. In addition to the peach, bourbon, brandy, & caramel, this has wonderful oak & vanilla.

Charles is drinking a Hazy Hearted IPA by Bell’s Brewery at Monti's
Using another of my birthday rewards tonight, and I am doing a Hazy IPA for a second night in a row (essentially no Stouts on the beer menu). This is refreshing, with nice tropical (mango) and citrusy (grapefruit) flavors. Solid choice.

This is my second beer from 93 Octane, and it's another solid beer. It's nicely malty with a notable bit of smooth caramel flavor. Having a hearty sandwich with my father before heading back into the city.
