![beersaturday8 (2).png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmaSURiLT4RAUWPiz4c58Q5kbUeb9x2FbUPPmVLW7D5vwE/beersaturday8%20(2).png) Right on time for #beersaturday week 454 so I am again featuring my new title image for your enjoyment. Early or late, you are always welcome to pull up a pint and join @detlev and the gang at https://peakd.com/hive-187719/@detlev/beersaturday-454 / https://hive.blog/hive-187719/@detlev/beersaturday-454 with your post about beer. In this 454rd edition, I am chugging a pre-concert beer, visiting the local bottle shop and still brewing! ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/zekepickleman/2466AdGtfg5Nn2foZ5ARrscGywNrmNCoURwPZQLaHdMtLutq4VPapWLx8HBmXmpCZZ22v.png) https://images.hive.blog/DQmPax7RZo64uXdeV5w5Nsb7uyNvDQZpbuca4r8qR15updR/potw.jpg ![IMG_8372.JPG](https://images.hive.blog/DQmX4zF73Jx1ytsSH8wrMEUmGJs8CPb2FiB3nsuwkT6yfHo/IMG_8372.JPG) Everyone here can probably agree that pints are great. I think they are even better when enjoyed at a pub or gathering spot with others. Hence, the pint of the week. This week, I enjoyed this tall handsome stranger down the road in London before a concert. One thing I love doing is hitting a restaurant or pub before a concert to add a little fun to the night and not have to pay $14 for another pint! The was one of their house brews and was a cold crisp boring beer perfect for the snack. ![IMG_8373.JPG](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQuFJJVts3KNFD2VdhyNn7sFhwGR6dJgrBnjJL7yijSAV/IMG_8373.JPG) Gotta have a snack with that as well because there are usually no good food options at a concert. We found a bistro that served Dosas which is a wonderful South Indian snack like crepes stuffed with curries and served with zesty dipping sauces. ![642409495_3584982021640302_8869826780702637468_n.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmeGrYAKqsqWaQ3Fdd7iup5h94WVkPtP2hLaK4gHn34wPb/642409495_3584982021640302_8869826780702637468_n.jpg) The concert? Well I want to save that tale for #threetunetuesday but here is a hint. You probably have never heard of them if you are not from Canada but tune in on Tuesday for the full scoop. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/zekepickleman/2466AdGtfg5Nn2foZ5ARrscGywNrmNCoURwPZQLaHdMtLutq4VPapWLx8HBmXmpCZZ22v.png) # Rorschach Glassfire! ![IMG_8262 (1).JPG](https://images.hive.blog/DQmUcsDqZEqNQFehV73vmX72a3SuafyBxduALBDRLrg5CDQ/IMG_8262%20(1).JPG) Despite the bottomless supply of the beer we brew always on tap in our keg fridges, I have really been enjoying my visits to a new local bottle shop/bar called [End Times](http://www.endtimes.beer/) (Don't click on that as they are new enough not to have their webpage settled.) The proprietor has a knack of knowing the best and most exclusive beers in the region and is developing a nice following in offering it at reasonable prices at his business. I owe you a tour of that place some time on #beersaturday. ![IMG_8263 (1).JPG](https://images.hive.blog/DQmP4xH2AUVN3NUvSi3FjMYTyaheBPjMe5TjEC2fQb6Hz8Q/IMG_8263%20(1).JPG) The beer I chose from a bangin' selection was [Rorschach Glassfire IPA](https://www.rorschachbrewing.com/products/sunbleed-ddh-ipa-copy) I wouldn't think an IPA, double dry hopped exclusively with Simcoe hops would be so good. Generally a little too dry for my preference, the double dry hopping should make it even more so but this was a damn fine, almost tropical IPA. I am going to have to return and snag a few for my fridge if they haven't already sold out. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/zekepickleman/2466AdGtfg5Nn2foZ5ARrscGywNrmNCoURwPZQLaHdMtLutq4VPapWLx8HBmXmpCZZ22v.png) # Back in the Brewery ![IMG_8204.JPG](https://images.hive.blog/DQmUF968dr2SMAYpbNcaR4kfLTsKoCpbVYfHiYJDc8cYf6Z/IMG_8204.JPG) Things are steamy and hazy in our garage brewery these past couple weeks. We have brewed our standard Amber Cat amber, New England IPA with added Nelson Sauvin hops, a cream ale and an 1-off variation of the amber that is looking to be stronger and maltier...almost a dunkel. We did hibernate a bit early in the year but are catching up so all the fridges are stocked with fresh kegs in anticipation of the inevitable spring season. This week I should have the new IPA to sample and review and we should have another brewing session where I will snap some pics to give you a little more insight on how we brew on our smaller scale right from grains. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/zekepickleman/2466AdGtfg5Nn2foZ5ARrscGywNrmNCoURwPZQLaHdMtLutq4VPapWLx8HBmXmpCZZ22v.png) # #BEERSaturday!
