Good news and good beers. Many years ago while on a business trip to SF, I went to the old SF Brewing Company where they'd brought Anchor in to do a vertical tasting of their holiday beer. Some had been aged for 6 years or more and were spectacular. I was in that pub a few times on that trip...

How do you know my wife? 🤣

Are you there now? Take in some college baseball while your'e there. UVA is hosting the NCAA regionals starting today.

Very similar packaging.

This was a bag of KA 00 that I recently grabbed at Costco. Next time is to follow the recipe on the bag. I think the issue was the 'secondary' ferment of 30 minutes and a quick, high yeast primary of just 2 hours. Certainly no flavor development, which I expected. But the cracker crust was not.

Well, you nailed that. My first observation was that it was very 'cracker-like'. Used 00 flour, though it was a 'same day' recipe.

Wasn't crazy about the crust. First time trying this recipe - it was crisp, but too much so, not enough chew and not enough 'leopard'. I haven't made pizza dough in a long time, but this was fun.

On the rare occasion I go into a SB, it's the same thing. "Venti dark roast, please". Which is met with an awkward stare and an "Is that all?".

Jerk ribs. Rubbed a couple racks of baby backs down with some Walkerswood mild, vacuum sealed, and let them sit for about 24 hours. Threw them on low and slow before my late afternoon meetings and let 'em run for a few hours. Rice with oregano, allspice, S&P, and some slaw. Ends were a tad...

That's a good representation. Try some cooked eel, and seaweed salad.
