      Thank you. And the Apocalypse has started.
      Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

        Yeah, extra beer is always welcome.

          No dice on the KBS last night. It's shown on beermenus.com as available a couple of other places nearby (both updated more recently than the entry for the place I went last night), including on draft at one of them (which appears to have had a Founders event since there are seven Founders beers on tap). And, I'm "working from home" tomorrow since my office is being repainted, so I think a trip might be in order.

            KBS on tap with lunch at a bar that was having a Founders tap takeover. So that was fun.

              Perfect day outside right now, have the day off, and nothing to do. I might just crack one of mine right now. It'd be tough to top these conditions right now.

                Its too humid and too hot.


                I bought some more bombers today. Because, why not.

                  Not even. Just enough of a breeze here to ease the feel of the humidity. I could go for a good Mojito, though.

                    I found the North Country Brunette. I think I must have just missed it the last time I was at Northgate. Might try that this weekend.

                    Also picked up a bottle of Pentagram for the bachelor party. Got a bottle of Love Child #4, a bottle of Badger Hill Chocolate Cherry Dunkel, and a 6er of Milk Stout Nitro.

                    The bombers I want to drink at the bachelor part are: Surly Darkness, Deschutes The Abyss, Even More Jesus, and Pentagram.

                      For your shindig: yum, meh (I think it's overrated), yum, all the nopes.

                      Might pick up the Lucid LSD for the shindig to share. Not sure if I'll like it, so it'd be perfect in this scenario.

                        Just cracked this. A little tart, a little sour, and just a hint of fruitiness. I think PBS would love it, and you'd like it a lot. It's ok in my book, but don't think I'd buy it again. It is very drinkable, though.

                          We've had LSD, we thought it was good, but it was unlike anything I've had before. I'd recommend trying it just to see, since it is so different.

                            We had the #3, and we have a #4 in the fridge, probably to crack tonight. I think this will be right up our alley.
