Undecided ... I'll let you know what sounds good after I put the 7yo to bed in a bit. Could be Woodchuck Pumpkin cider, could be Captain 'n' Coke, could be a New Planet Belgian Ale (one of the few decent GF beers I've found), or might just be a glass of ginger ale. Decisions, decisions.
OK - the Coke bottle was already opened, so Cap'n N Coke, it is. To start, anyway.
20,000 miles behind me, the world still to see.
A stout from Ommegang brewery.
It's ok, but I wouldn't buy another. I think they tried to get too cute -- there are hints of baker's chocolate, dry licorice, anise and earthy hops that just end up tasting musty. A sweeter version that plays to one addition's flavor might be better.

We went to the Ommegang brewery back in 1998-99, I think right after they opened! It was a neat little place then, and they only had three beers - Hennepin, Rare Vos and I think one was called Ommegang Abbey. They were my favorites back before I was GF!
Nothing special tonight. Just a Sam Adams Octoberfest.

Have you tried many of the GF beers?
The New Planet Belgian Ale isn't bad, and my DH liked their Pale Ale (I don't like pale ales). I also had one from, I think, Greens that was in a bigger bottle and leaned more toward a stout that was good. Selection is limited around here - RedBridge and New Grist may as well be Bud Light (ick!). Bards isn't bad - a bit like a wheat beer.

I've tried RedBridge and Bards. Meh (and I think RedBridge is a Bud product!) I tend to just do wine when I want a drink.
I'll have to see if I can try some of the others you mention!
I looked last night online - I think the one from Green's that I had was their Belgian Dubbel Dark Ale. I keep meaning to try a few others from them, but the store that has them is out of the way - and I get distracted by the hard ciders that are popping up all over. And the wine ... and ... so many options.
I just brewed a cup of coffee with the Keurig and as I was about to drop my sugar cubes in it, I noticed I could faintly see the bottom of the mug. Upon further inspection, it turns out I did not put a new k-cup in there this morning, it was the one from yesterday!
Somebody drank too much last night, apparently.
