Jackie has a Big Grove old fashioned, which she says is very good. I have the Destilh ILL-IPA. I haven’t had one since they closed their local restaurant early in the pandemic.

Jackie and I are each drinking a Rhinegeist Terror Bird imperial IPA, to go along with BBQ for our main meal of the day. Yummy.

Jackie and I both have the Maplewood Crushinator. Pretty good session ale.
