My annual river trip is next weekend and I need to beer up for my old roommate and I this week (he flies in from New Jersey so I'm on beer duty.

Looking back on untappd it looks like last year I took some Oso Bueno, Summer Pils, Dallas Blonde, Weekend Warrior and London Homesick.

Any suggestions of available stuff? I try to mix it up on a yearly basis of different blondes, lighter iPas, lagers, etc. The only thing currently on the shopping list is some Oberon.

I would crush a lot of Real Ale Gose floating on the river.

My wife got the news she passed prelims for her PhD and is now clear to defend her dissertation. She also gets to order her Aggie ring! That calls for opening a good beer this evening.

This Friday, June 9th at 4pm, we'll be releasing Jester King Demi-Tone! Demi Tone is our farmhouse ale refermented with the "spent" blueberries from Jester King Colour Five.

Demi-Tone (blueberries) follows in our lineup of refermentations with spent fruit, which includes La Vie en Rose (raspberries), Detritivore (cherries), and Grim Harvest (blackberries). The result of refermenting on spent fruit is a more subtle fruit character and arguably more complexity in terms of the fermentation profile.

We've always been a little cautious when working with blueberries, as we've encountered acetic (vinegary) issues in the past, which we've always dumped down the drain. Some may recall our Blueberry FAIL of 2014, which resulted in a beer with some very harsh, sharp acidity. We've come a long way since our first attempt of working with blueberries, and we believe Demi-Tone is a really great expression of one of our core philosophies allowing native yeast and bacteria to create interesting flavors and aromas through the fermentation of grains and fruit.

Demi-Tone was made by taking a young (1-2 month old) farmhouse ale brewed with well water, malted barley, malted wheat, oats, and hops, and refermenting it with the spent (or leftover) blueberries from Jester King Colour Five. It is unfiltered, unpasteurized, and 100% naturally conditioned. Demi-Tone is 6.3% alcohol by volume, 11 IBU, 3.6 pH, and has a finishing gravity of 1.001 (0.25 Plato). It was packaged on March 7th, 2017. It is our first ever batch.

The artwork for Demi-Tone, like all our labels, was created by Josh Cockrell of Jester King and is inspired by music theory and sacred geometry.

Demi-Tone will be available by the glass and in bottles to go. We have approximately 1,400 bottles available (750ml/$18). The bottle limit is one per customer per day. Aside from special events, Demi-Tone will only be available at Jester King. We hope you enjoy!

I know Avery is in Texas, is this on the shelves? 4.5%, almost like a carbonated margarita in a can.

Don't you put that evil on El Gose, Ricky Bobby.

Yes, it's available here in Texas. But I find that it is like a watered down version of what a gose should be.

I agree after drinking 6-7%+ for almost every beer for so long, a 4.5 seems watered down, but I think it's to style, which is 4-5%.

Real Ale's Gose has lime as well. Westbrook key lime gose... Seems lots of them do.

Don't hate the brewer, hate the style.

Judging by your angle that one was heading your way

Was not expecting this game to still be going on when I got home.

F-@! This day!! AC broke and cost me $630, then the microwave went out a few minutes ago.

You watching the baseball game?

There is still hope for that to get better.

The bar has been closed since the 7th. It's now the 14th!!!

I would have left already.

Ouch man. Hopefully the baseball team can pull their heads out of their asses and end this thing.
