Managed to meet up with a buddy for lunch at Tarantula Hill Brewing. It’s been a couple years since last visit but I enjoyed everything I tried (blond ale with tart cherries, hazy IPA with apricots, and this west coast IPA collab with Casa Agria)
Baxter Coastal Storm, Double India Pale Ale.

Was up at high elevation today, so I'm sure this will help.
Looking forward to trying this later.
The case arrived quicker from Germany than expected.
And it is as marvelous as I remembered 
Natty Bo!

Covergent Paths, a dark chocolate/espresso stout from Nine Mile. The espresso note almost turned into an overpowering black licorice flavor, but the beer was able to right itself. A sipper, 7.4%, the best of the 3 crowlers from Nine Mile.
You picked some good ones! That M-43 is such a good beer, when I visited a buddy out there a few years ago that was one of the beers he specifically sought out so we could try it.
More Natty Bo !

.Overwhelmed by all the seasonals available on the shelves, I grabbed this single from Schell's, New Ulm, MN...
A barrel-aged black lager, 10%, thick tan head with white highlights. Rich and sweet, with chocolate, vanilla, and oak notes. Nice seasonal effort from Schell's.
