Haven't had a ton of different beers over the last week, but it was Christmas, so obviously I had plenty to drink. The best of the new stuff: Tired Hands Frequency Illusion: Chardonnay
Description: Dry and a little oaky, much like Chardonnay (shocking). It has a tiny bit of funk when you pour the yeast from the bottom of the bottle, but there wasn't enough of it for my tastes.
What you should know: Honestly, this beer is just OK, but it was definitely the best I had. Too mild for me.
Recommendations: If you can make your way to Tired Hands, this is a great series of beers, but maybe try a different variety than Chardonnay. The Grenache is the best I've had.

Had a few random new beers, as I've been in PA the last week, and even got to check out a new brewery. The best: Conshohocken You Can't Catch Me
Description: This just tastes like Christmas. Sugary, spiced, and extra spice from the yeast.
What you should know: I love gingerbread, so there's a good chance I like this more than the average person.
Recommendations: Have some sort of Christmas-themed beer this weekend. Then wait another year before having another.

Busy week, but I still managed to have a few new beers, including one that was absolutely awesome: Tired Hands Milkstave IPA: Strawberry
Description: Strawberry milkshake, plus tartness and an intense oaky finish. This is like a NEIPA mixed with a fine old world wine.
What you should know: This is the 2nd beer I've had in this series, and the first one was even better. I'm going to be seeking these out.
Recommendations: Try to find an extra funky beer this weekend, whether it's a sour or a saison, and let it overwhelm your palate.

Hitting 4000 beers last week seems like a good time to update the site statistics. The last update was 2/18/2020, so everything since basically covers the Covid-adjusted world. Special shout out to Tree House, as I managed to have 102 (!) new beers from them in less than 2 years, making them #1 in beer volume on the site. The stats (values from last time in parentheses):

Mostly good, plenty of not so good beers since the last update. Cheers!

It's been 673 days since I posted the 3000th beer special, so I've set a pretty good pace (1.49 new beers/day). Added a whole bunch of stuff that I acquired over Thanksgiving, and I had some incredible options across a variety of styles. My favorite is from a brewery I hadn't had before, but will definitely have again: The Veil The Weapon: Exhibit C
Description: This is just an alcoholic fruit smoothie. Super thick, and so much fruit flavor with just a hint of tartness. 
What you should know: This is part of a series of beers where The Veil removed specific ingredients from one of their beers that's a fruited sour IPA. This version had the hops removed, and it sure doesn't need them.
Recommendations: Try some new beers this weekend. Maybe you'll get on my pace. If not, at least you'll probably find something new that you'll want to get again.

I'm a little behind on these due to a hectic week last week, so I'm going to do 2 this week. The first: The Bruery Terreux Goses Are Red 2021
Description: Claims to be a gose and also a rosé-style beer. I don't really get the 2nd part (or any of the funkiness I expect from oak aging), but it's a nice balance of fruity and tart that leaves you with tartness after you put it down. 
What you should know: I had just had a couple horrible beers right before this one, so it tasted extra good at first.
Recommendations: Have a few midweek beers this week. I know I could use one, so you probably can too.
