Last night's selections

Asylum 13 maduro

Toro 6 x 52

Deep notes of coffee, sweetness, white pepper and spice make this toro a must have smoke. It is a Nicaraguan puro with a mouthwatering maduro wrapper and an excellent construction. Handmade in Nicaragua, the Asylum 13 Maduro Toro was developed by Christian Eiroa.

Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Imperial Milk Stout

12% abv

Jet black and with a nearly inky tone, Bourbon Barrel Imperial Milk Stout slowly releases a dense heavy-cream foam As the robust scent of espresso and cream fill the nose, so do the barrel nuances of char, vanilla, caramel and coconut. Expectedly sweet on the tongue, a toffee-sweet maltiness is wrapped with sweet cream, caramel and honey for a decadently rich introduction in taste.

Ohhh, Sometimes women's breast get clogged up with milk, könig would use this as the perfect opportunity to be close to you and massage your chest to help, he's just so sweet helping you out like that.😊

Omg omg omg of course he’d help her!!!

CW: Postpartum phase, children, light angst, breast stimulation, yandere undertones.

König has become soft ever since the baby was born.

You read somewhere that men's testosterone levels suffer a significant drop after they become fathers, which perhaps explains why he looks like a melting marshmallow in hot cocoa these days. König's stare has always followed you wherever you go but now that you're carrying his child in your arms, the looks he gives you are far more… benevolent. You suspect he must be proud of you, first carrying the baby for nine long months and then suffering an arduous birth - because of course this titan's baby weighed over 8 pounds - and now you're giving your everything to the soft little thing König calls "his kleine Butterblume."

You're in a baby bubble together, but not all days are heavenly and sweet. And now, on top of everything else, your breast is clogged. The lady at the maternity clinic told you this is a common issue and can easily be dealt with at home, but the instructions you received left you staring off into space for a few moments.

Later that evening, the problem is still very much acute, and you're getting desperate.

When you go to König and beg him to help you, there is a sharp intake of breath just before he nods. An odd striptease show ensues in silence: you're puffy and swollen and sore, you feel like a wreck as you take off your shirt and bra. König has always referred to you as a flower or a heavenly being, but now, you must resemble a sullen bloom at the end of July. Overblown and weary, heavy and plush, petals pouting, falling if someone were to touch them.

You feel like crying from seeing that König still worships you with his stare. If anything, he seems to approve of the extra pounds and your devastated state, only looks you up and down with boundless hunger, silent but with a heaving chest. When you're bare, he rises, and you're turned around and pulled in a stout embrace. Large, warm hands land over your poor, aching breasts, and you quickly remind him to be gentle - the instructions were to pet the breasts like you would a cat. He rumbles a dark laugh against your back, and then the hands start to massage you, blessedly soft but imperious.

Your sighs grow heavy and weary. It hurts a little, but the relief is imminent. Your head rolls back to rest on the mountain of his chest, and then you begin to sob.

You let it all come out as a series of soft, sad little whines: how tired you are, how the baby is far more work than you thought, how your breasts hurt all the time and how you don't even know if you're doing things right. How you just want to sleep…

He rubs you through your breakdown, and it's soothing to be held by someone as strong as König… But then he pants a hot wish in your ear.

"I thought we'd soon make another one..."

"Mh, wha–another one?"

"Ja, sicher. We must make three or four at least. Oder?"

You are about to collapse, about to faint, but can't because a demigod is keeping you from falling.

"Don't worry little lily. I know you need to rest first. I'll wait a few more weeks."

"König–"

You shudder as his thumbs brush over your nipples.

"Am I doing it right?" He asks with a low, soft purr.

Your mind is in disarray, a trophy from not getting enough sleep for months, and you're tired of struggling against his indomitable will. First things first, you think, stuffing the earlier conversation somewhere into the recesses of your exhausted mind.

"Um. The lady said you should–that you could… try to suck them too," you breathe with unease.

"Ist das so?"

You're moved to the bed before you can even whimper.

...Is he so eager to do this?

Of course he is; you haven't had sex in months. He's only had his own calloused hand to keep him company, and you've been too tired to even think about such things. Your body has become a stranger to you, and when he moves to crawl on top of you, it only looks like the prowl of an apex predator.

The coarse stubble of his chin makes you flinch – it's like an array of tiniest daggers caressing your breasts. When he takes your aching nipple into his warm mouth, you shudder. It feels utterly different to have a grown man sucking on your tits; it's ten times more demanding, a hundred times more intense when the man in question is König. The hunger, the overstimulation, the exhaustion make your head spin, his mouth and tongue force you to release your stress in shakes. Before you even know it, there are tears streaming down your face.

He doesn't stop. Probably thinks it's only a good thing that you get it all out of your system. He must feel good about himself for making you cry while lapping and sucking at your breasts, he rubs, licks, and nibs until you're sniffling and wailing on that bed.

"Little angel… I've never been this hard," he pants on your slathered, slick nipple. "Do you know what it does to a man to look but never touch?"

Your tiny, weary heart is flapping against its cage. "König, we can't make another one… I can't, I can't, not yet…"

"Ah… But if I promise I'll pull out?"

[lynxindisguise]

hello lynx please assign every werepuppy an (alcoholic or non alcoholic) drink and tell me about the first time they all taste alcohol/get drunk! 🫶🏼

hiii cat so for the purposes of this ask we’re going to decide that the werepuppies can drink safely bc magic.

- lyra is ofc black coffee/neat whisky etc. she likes to sit at the bar with sirius is her doggy leather jacket and drink from his glass when no one is looking. girl can hold her liquor so you won’t really see her drunk/she’s always doing crazy shit anyway so it’s hard to blame that on alcohol!!

- vulcan is red bull or monster, idk I don’t know much about energy drinks, but yeah he’s absolutely doing jager bombs in the club and getting some mad zoomies!!

- pip is a classic rum and coke. but really if it’s sweet, he’ll drink it, and then projectile vomit everywhere. he is an absolute liability when drunk.

- aurora is a glass of red wine. she drinks responsibly, gets a bit cuddlier than normal, then passes the fuck out. but on the rare occasion that she does have a bit too much, she’s also a liability and is probably rolling around crying about the cute dog she met once at the park.

- quincy is craft beer, for the pup with a refined taste. he doesn’t like alcohol at first, but then he discovers imperial stouts and judges his fathers for drinking shitty lagers. he gets very emotional when drunk.

- waffles is warm milk with honey. sweet little waffles doesn’t like the taste of alcohol, but he will get very silly over a strawberry milkshake!

Today’s side-by-side was stouts. First was Expedition Stout, a Russian Imperial, Stout, from Bell’s Brewery out of Comstock, MI. This was really good, a very thick coffee, taste and a weird heat on the finish, almost like it was a chilli beer. Next up was Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Imperial Milk Stout from Lexington Brewing and Distilling Company out of Lexington, KY. This was really good with a heavy bourbon flavor in the middle. All in all these were both good stouts, but I’d take a Founders or a Baptist over both of them.

Their 27th edition Firestone Walker Brewing releases Anniversary Ale XXVII.

image courtesy Firestone Walker Brewing Company Press Release Paso Robles, CA: Firestone Walker today unveiled “XXVII”—the latest edition of its storied Anniversary Ale, blended once again with the help of local winemakers.   “This beer was created with experience, passion and collaboration, sparing no expense to celebrate our brewery’s 27thanniversary,” said Brewmaster Matt Brynildson. “This may be our most eclectic Anniversary Ale to date—a testament to the blending skills of our winemaker friends.”  The result is XXVII—a masterwork of flavor and complexity, blended from five distinct ales aged in bourbon barrels. XXVII (single boxed 12-oz bottles) is rolling out now in limited quantities to all Firestone Walker markets. It is also available at each brewery location and online at FirestoneBeer.com for a limited time.  Blended to Perfection Firestone Walker resides in the Paso Robles wine country, home to some of California’s most decorated winemakers—many of whom Brynildson has befriended over the years. Ever since making the brewery’s inaugural Anniversary Ale in 2006, Brynildson has leaned on his winemaker friends to help create a complex and harmonious beer from a variety of distinct barrel-aged components. This year’s blending session took place on the afternoon of June 28.  “These winemakers are practicing experts in the art of blending, and it’s always amazing how they help us create a beer that is greater than the sum of its parts,” he said. “It’s a fun, competitive and spirited experience whenever we get together.”   This year’s blending session marked the 18th occasion of this annual summer rite. As always, the winemakers broke into teams to create their own candidate blends from a variety of barrel-aged components. Next, the winemakers and brewers blind tasted all of the candidate blends, then voted as a group to crown the winner that would become XXVII. XXVII: The Final Blend Brewmaster’s Tasting Notes: “The finished blend is deep dark mahogany in color and expresses decadent up-front barrel aromas with notes of toffee and cocoa powder close behind. The mouthfeel is smooth and silky with rich caramel flavors complemented by toasted nut, vanilla and coconut accents. There is a beautiful balance between a rich malt character, a top-shelf bourbon spirit and chocolate truffles. An absolutely stunning barrel-aged beer and a true testament to the winemakers’ skill in blending not only for aroma and flavor, but also for texture.” DDBA Batch 10k - Aged in Wheated Bourbon Barrels (33%) Imperial Special Bitter Dividing Time - Aged in Wheated and Rye Bourbon Barrels (29%) Munich Wine Made in Collaboration with Private Press Bravo - Aged in Bourbon Barrels (13%) Imperial Brown Ale Rip This Joint - Aged in Bourbon Barrels (13%) Imperial Stout Made in Collaboration with Side Project Velvet Merkin - Aged in Bourbon Barrels (12%) Milk Stout The Winemakers Molly Lonborg – Alta Colina Kevin Sass – Halter Ranch Along with Beer Club Member Ezekial Palmer This team created the winning blend that became “XXVII” Sherman Thacher - Thacher Winery Janelle Dusi – J Dusi Wines Billy Grant – McPrice Myers Russell From - Herman Story Wines Jesse Juarez – Desparada Wines Steve Martell – Kaleidos Bastien Leduc - Seven Oxen Estate Wines Pete Turrone and Kyle Jury - Booker Wines Pete and Alex Slosberg – Pete’s Wicked Ale Cassi & Nigel King – Beer Club Members Mark Smolyar – Hopped.com from Northwest Beer Guide - News - The Northwest Beer Guide https://bit.ly/3QJhlOv

#Repost @colvinology 🎂 IT'S MY BIRTHDAY 🎂 Here’s one of my favorite posts from 2019! [Celebrating this year with Birthday Bomb! from Prairie Artisan Ales (@prairieales) #. It's an imperial stout with coffee, cacao nibs, vanilla bean, chili peppers, caramel sauce, and toffee coming in at 12%. Master Grade Ex-S Gundam and Master Grade Plan 303E Deep Striker on deck. . Smells like a fresh pot of coffee brewing in the back of a gourmet bakery. Incredible dark roast coffee aromas on top of milk and dark chocolate, caramel, toffee, and roasted nuts. The taste follows pretty much exactly, with forward punch of black coffee followed by a deluge of confectionary...can't quite find that chili pepper though. It's sweet enough to balance out the bitter acidity of the coffee, but nowhere near as sweet as the ingredients suggest. It's an incredibly balanced, absolutely spectacular beer, and it's definitely one of many today. Thanks to everyone who's ever dropped a like, comment, or a message I've forgotten to check. Let's make this thing even better in the next year. 😁😁 Cheers 🍻🍻] . . . . . . . . . . #Gundam #gunpla #ガンダム #건담 #ガンプラ #건프라 #beertography #craftnotcrap #beerstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/ClZKeNwvWOq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Art of Brewing: A Look at Traditional British Beer Styles

Brewing beer is an art that has been perfected over centuries. In Britain, this tradition holds a particular place in the hearts and lifestyles of the people. British beer styles are renowned globally, characterized by their wealthy history, numerous flavors, and one-of-a-kind brewing techniques.

Let’s explore a number of the most iconic conventional British beer styles:  

Bitter

Bitter is possibly the most critical British beer fashion. It emerged in the early nineteenth century as an extra-heavy-hopped version of faded ale. Bitters are regarded for their golden to amber color and slight alcohol content, commonly ranging from 3% to 5% ABV (alcohol by volume). The flavor profile normally has a balance between malt sweetness and hop bitterness, with a dry, crisp end. Bitters are available in various sub-patterns, such as everyday bitter, first-class sour, and strong sour (or greater unique sour, ESB). Normal�� Bitters are the lightest in each flavor and alcohol content material, while ESBs are richer and stronger. Historically served in pubs via cask ale structures, bitters offer a clean, much less carbonated ingesting experience compared to bottled or canned beers. 

Faded Ale

Faded Ale, some other cornerstone of British brewing, shares a close relationship with bitter. Originating in the 18th century, faded ale is named for its lighter coloration as compared to the darker porters and stouts of the time. British pale ales are characterized by their moderate hop aroma and taste, medium body, and a balance between malt sweetness and hop bitterness. The creation of faded malts at some stage in the Industrial Revolution made it possible to brew lighter-colored beers, leading to the recognition of faded ale. cutting-edge  British faded ales are frequently extra hop-ahead, showcasing traditional British hop varieties such as Fuggles and East Kent Goldings, which impart earthy, floral, and barely highly spiced notes. 

Porter

Porter, a fashion that dates back to the early 18th century, ended up being the first beer to be appreciably allocated. It has become immensely famous amongst London’s walking beauty, mainly porters, from whom the beer takes its name. Porters are darkish beers brewed with brown malt, which imparts a wealthy, roasted flavor and a darkish brown-to-black shade. Porters can range from moderate to robust, with flavors that include notes of chocolate, coffee, and caramel. The appearance of black patent malt in the early 19th century allowed for even darker and more complex porters. Despite the fact that its popularity waned in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the craft beer movement has revived interest in this ancient style. 

Stout

Stout is superior to Porter, to begin with, known as "stout porter" to suggest a more potent model of the beer. Over time, Stout has superior personal and extremely good fashion. There are numerous sub-styles of stout, collectively known as dry stout, sweet stout, oatmeal stout, and imperial stout. Dry Stout, epitomized by way of Guinness, is probably the most common. It is extensively praised for its deep black color, creamy mouthfeel, and flavor profile that balances roasted malt bitterness with diffused sweetness. Candy Stouts, also known as Milk Stouts, encompass lactose, which offers sweetness and a fuller body. Oatmeal Stouts contain oats for a smooth, creamy texture. Imperial Stouts, the most powerful and most excessive, boast immoderate alcohol content and rich flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and coffee.

Mild Ale

Mild Ale is a conventional British beer style that has seen a resurgence in recent years. Historically, moderate became a low-alcohol beer (2% to 4% ABV), brewed for brief consumption by industrial people. The term "mild" refers to its noticeably low hop bitterness in comparison to other patterns. Mild Ales are typically darkish brown, with malt-ahead flavors that could consist of caramel, toffee, nut, and chocolate. There are also light variations of moderate ale, which can be lighter in color but nonetheless focus on malt individuals. The low bitterness and clean, easy-ingesting nature of slight ales make them a famous preference for those in search of a sessionable beer. 

Conclusion 

The wealthy tapestry of conventional British beer patterns reflects the US's brewing historical past and innovation. From the balanced bitterness of a nicely poured pint of sour to the deep, complex flavors of a strong Porter, every style offers a unique window into the history and culture of British beer. These days, these patterns continue to adapt and encourage brewers worldwide, ensuring that the artwork of brewing remains a vibrant and imperative part of British tradition. Whether you’re a seasoned beer enthusiast or a curious newcomer, exploring these classic patterns is an adventure in the heart of British brewing.
