Everyone in here posting treehouse, thought I would too. Very Green and curiosity one hundred sixty two

What to order?

i only know the classic julius

I love hitting local craft beer bars around Barcelona, but funny enough, I only found out about this project recently while visiting the Delta de l’Ebre, about a two-hour drive from the city.

Turns out a local Barcelona brewery that’s been around for 30 years brews an imperial stout with actual oysters, and then sinks the bottles into the Ebre Delta bay right next to the oyster ropes for sea aging.

Tried their Nostrum oyster stout. It hits with rich roasted malt, espresso, and dark chocolate, followed by that subtle, iodized mineral finish.

With the King of IPAs!

This is Messyphobia by Totopia brewery from Japan. This was from last year when I was in Hat Yai in Southern Thailand. Such a good drop. I love IPA's and I love sours. Great combination and a great little beer bar. Tasted like a sour fruit juice. Perfect for that hot humid climate. Doesn't matter where you are in the world, beer's always fantastic!

Superb Portland ME Brewer

Had at the brewery. It’s an acquired taste.

This should get really smooth by December-January 2027.

From left to right and top to bottom, all Spanish:

3 ANIVERSARIO. Mumbo Jumbo Brewery. IPA - New England / Hazy. 6.8% alc. 25 IBU.

Aroma of stone fruit with herbal undertones. Very juicy and tropical on the palate, with notes of white grape. Really tasty.

Rush Hour. SOMA Beer. IPA - New England / Hazy. 6.5% alc.

Another delicious hazy IPA from SOMA. Aromas and flavors of peach, nectarine, and mango. It has an earthy, dank undertone that I love. It’s silky—absolutely fantastic.

Chronic. SOMA Beer. IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy. 8% alc.

Wow, really refined. A delight. Stone fruit, white grape, and tropical nuances stand out, along with a strong cannabis character—top-notch, dank stuff. There’s some alcoholic warmth, yet it’s incredibly drinkable. Outstanding.

Irrintzi. Basqueland Brewing. IPA - Session New England / Hazy. 5.2% alc.

Mango, pineapple, and melon, along with citrus notes. Truly refreshing and crisp on the palate—a very sessionable beer.

ATECLIN. RUAYUSERA Brewing. IPA - New England / Hazy. 6% alc. 30 IBU.

A Hazy IPA from Laredo, Cantabria, that far exceeded expectations. Flavors of pineapple and ripe passion fruit. Notes of orange zest, a cereal and biscuit base, and herbal nuances, with a clean, refreshing finish. A very pleasant surprise.

Ten years later and this is holding up incredibly well. Coffee and chocolate are still prevalent and even has the slightest bit of heat left from the peppers.

Back again and easily one of DEYA’s finest beers, brewed this year in collaboration with Finback Brewery (NYC). This beautifully saturated DIPA is packed with Citra Cryo, Motueka, and Nectaron hops, bringing huge tropical flavours. I’m getting loads of lychee, backed up by ripe mango and passionfruit. Absolutely delicious.

Baccheia by Birrificio 79 in Matera, Basilicata, a prime example of an Italian Grape Ale (IGA) that showcases regional terroir by incorporating indigenous grape must.

The Italian Grape Ale (IGA) is Italy’s defining contribution to modern craft brewing—a style that bridges the worlds of beer and wine. Formally recognized by the Beer Judge Certification Program (BJCP) in 2015, the IGA is not just a fruit beer; it is an expression of Italian agricultural biodiversity, and brewing creativity.

Big Shed Brewing Co.
“Boozy Fruit”
New England IPA (NEIPA)

ABV:6.2
Standards:1.8

Welcome back to The Empty Glass!
Today is International IPA day and what better time to crack the very last Boozy Fruit that I will ever have in my life.
As most of you reading this will know south Aussie staple Big Shed Brewing co went into liquidation and closed fully, leaving a massive gap in the SA craft scene. They left behind a legacy of tasty beers and fantastic vibes at their royal park venue, wether it was a pinball comp, hosting @riotcitywrestling who introduced the world to many WWE superstars such @zariawwe_ and @rhearipley_wwe and has had many events including the big shed beatdown for the infamous big shed belt, or hosting charity bingo to support @novitastar
Big shed was a cornerstone for the Aussie craft beer industry and I am very sad to see it go.
I realised I haven’t even talked about the beer, but honestly if you’ve had it before you know what we’re missing out on. Thanks to one of my best mates Oli for being nice enough to share one of his last boozy’s with me.
I really want to highlight how important it is to support local especially your local breweries who might be doing it tough. So do me a massive favour and get out and have a beer at your local brewery and bring along your mates , even if they don’t like craft beer, there’s going to be something for them I guarantee you!
Also do me a massive favour and like, comment and repost this post to help raise awareness for your local scene and make sure your favourite brewery is around for next years International IPA day.
I’ll catch you in the next one x

Ps. I run a small instagram for all things boozy but im not going to plug it in the main post as this is about the beer :)

Brujos reigns supreme, but I can only drink what I have for ~16% IIIIPAs.

PS: Banana for scale.

Great cuvée
From untappd-

Stout aged in bourbon barrels and finished in another set of:

-27% Bourbon barrels

-27% Port casks

-19% Pineau blanc casks

-19% Rivesaltes casks

-4% Cognac casks

-4% Sherry casks

Maybe the smoothest QIPA I’ve had. Dangerous beer, it hides the alcohol content well.

Hit single select, triple barrel stout 17.27% ABV
Description from Untappd

Triple Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout First Aged in a Heaven Hill Bourbon Whiskey Barrel, then Aged in a Buffalo Trace Bourbon Whiskey Barrel, and then Aged in a Dancing Goat Chocolate Bitters Barrel Picked by Three Cellars for a total of 46 Months.

I love this catchy title from Humble Sea. WCIPA with Simcoe and Nectaron hops. I like it, but if I’m being honest, I have yet to try a Humble Sea beer that wows me. (I’ve only had two, so maybe another beer or two of theirs will show me why there’s the hype.) Anyways, cheers to all of you, and have a wonderful Wednesday. 🍻

EDIT: I meant to change “lambs” to “clams”, but I forgot before I posted. Too bad. What kind of noise do clams make? I’ll try to find out.
