    “Cheers!” is a thread over on FSM, inspired by the name of the iconic sitcom series, that was started in 2004 and meant to chart our enjoyment of beverages, as well as various weekend and life activities. It was also the place that originated the Zoom meeting series during the pandemic and beyond (19 editions were held….I still intend to host the 20th and final one as soon as I get on top of things).

    But I feel like we needed one here as well.

    Now it’s the holidays, what’s everyone drinking?

    It’s sunny today, so I’ll soon be popping a beer on the balcony; a fairly straightforward Ringnes strong beer, perhaps followed by the Duvel 666 abbey beer, and some South African Goats Will Roam red wine later.

    I’m contemplating a bacon smoothie.

    Great on the balcony. Everyone walking by is taking a picture of the neighbour’s tree with white flowers. On to the red wine now.

    Beer so far. Nothing fancy, just ordinary Frydenlund Pilsner, which I like quite a lot. I’m far from a beer expert, but I recently heard that Frydenlund was voted the best of the Norwegian “industrial” beers, so maybe I’m actually on to something. 🙂
    Switching to red wine tomorrow, probably.
    Not that I’ll be consuming a lot of any of it – I’m at the cabin in Trysil with my sister and her family. 🙂

    You’re one of the cabin people!

    In seriousness, sounds nice.

    Nothing yet… but later on this special evening, it will be a Whisk(e)y… most likely be a piece of the Devil’s Cut Bourbon, as that is already open. 🙂

    Today, it’s a beer… because it’s a tradition in our home (from my wife’s side) to start BBQ season, so we have guests (like my mother-in-law, neighbors, etc.), I get to grill and have beer. My wife baked fresh bread (in the background) and made salads… and I in between sneak into my office to do some “important” stuff, like posting here. 🙂
    That’s my Easter Weekend Saturday.

    Looks very nice, almost like an ad. Is that a weissbier?

    A bit hung over today, but repairing with some beers, and now – a little bit of an old fav of mine, the US red wine Fetzer (beautiful Zinfandel grape). It’s gone up in price, though, and they’ve exchanged the screw cork with a….well, cork cork.

    Yes, it’s a Weißbier; I don’t think I ever had that particular one myself… I just bought a mixed crate of weißbier and picked that one.
