I've got a Hair of the Dog Adam that I've been sitting on for two years.
picked up two hair of the dog matt's last night.

i probably wont drink them for another 3 years, but damn do i look forward to cracking one of those open.

Do you plan on being pregnant for the next 3 years?

adam is real good. i was an even bigger fred fan.  on draft, that is. i haven't had either from the bottle.

Pretty sure brennser brought an Adam to a bottle share. Though we've had so many good beers at those, it's hard to keep track. Their Doggie Claws barleywine is also pretty awesome.

I just had some Goose Island Sophie.  Quite tasty and since I am part owner of the company it makes me mighty proud.

This afternoon (Friday), I was sitting atop Old Rag drinking a Heady Topper. Life doesn't get any better than that.

Bought a four pack of Victory DirtWolf today. Havne't tried it but have high hopes. Anybody tried it?

Shard four beers at Smoke and Barrel last night.

Ballast Point Victory at Sea...one of my very favorite porter/stouts

Triple Digit Chickow...never heard of these guys before, but i was quite impressed. An imperial brown ale that tasted like liquid nutella (had hazlenut in it)

Heavy Seas Cabernet Aged Barleywine (the name is too long for me to remember)...interesting and different, glad i tried it probably won't driink it again

New Belgium Le Teroir...hybrid of an IPA and a sour....very highly rated, I'd rate it good but not great. Another interesting one.

Old Rag is a cool hike.  But the furlough is over...why aren't you back at work.

Bluejacket to open on Tuesday 10/29

"What beers will Bluejacket debut with? Among them: Forbidden Planet, a dry-hopped kolsch made with Galaxy hops; the Scarecrow, a hoppy saison; the Imposter, a session rye IPA; Tooth & Nail, an imperial IPA; Figure 8, a wee heavy made with local figs and modeled after pastry chef Tiffany MacIsaac's figgy toffee pudding; and James & the Giant, a Belgian strong blonde ale with local peaches."

Shared a 4+ month old bottle of Founders Devil Dancer last night. Tasted like a nice barleywine, a lot different than the fest version. Paired it with my veggie chili and a Lagunitas Daytime IPA. Quite a contrast those two IPA's were.

atomic approved.

Thank you Texas.  My BUD stock is up 7 percent so far since I bought it earlier this month.  Keep drinking it up people.  Water is good for you.  So Beer that tastes like water must be good for you too.
