10.5!? Big beer, how was it?
I really like Belhaven Scottish Ale! They've really changed the label, though, and it came in a plaid box. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find any out my way for over a year, not sure what happened?So, two new beers to me.
First one is made by the Dead Armadillo Brewery (local company). It’s called Candemic Stout in honor of the chinese virus.

8.0 beer, it’s a stout. Nothing to make me rush out for more. I’ll keep one of the cans for posterity though.....
Bellhaven’s Scottish Ale is the next beer up for bids. The liquor store was out of my usual Dirty Bastard (I love this beer, but, flavor wise, I’m not sure how it got classified as a scottish ale). This was recommended as a replacement.

At 5.2abv, this is kind of a session beer for me. That said, I really like it. It has a nuttiness to it that kills the off bite i get from Dirty Bastard. But, it’s 5.2 compared to 8.5 and the six pack was $14.
I‘ll end up buying it again though, I like the taste.


I haven't had a plain ol' Sam Adams Boston Lager in a while, so I picked some up today. Still pretty good.![]()
CongratulationsWe've been down in the Outer Banks again this week, great weather mostly. I picked up a 12 pack of Yuengling Golden Pilsner for the evenings, and also picked up some Twisted Teas and Bud Light Seltzers for the beach.
Say what you will about the non-beer selections, but they've been quite refreshing in the warmer weather while relaxing on the beach!
Oh, and I got engaged.

PM me your address and it’s yours!You should send me one...
