This week's beers are Irish pub stouts. We have Murphy's Stout and O'Hara's Stout.

I also got some sort of Russian vodka. Hopefully it'll be good. It wasn't too costly so hopefully it won't be Turi either.

This is going to be a good week!

I hope y'all have a Merry Christmas, whether it's your holiday of choice or not. Never hurts to have a good day after all.

Get yo'self to mah place for a titanic battle between American Belgian-style Ale and a true Belgian (Trappist) Ale!

We have Ommegang Abbey Ale and Westmalle Dubbel on offer and we'll see which is better this Friday.

They have the same scores on BeerAdvocate... but will they score the same with my palate? Only time (and taste) will tell.

I'm gonna have a beer tasting this Friday.

Beers shall be on a Winter Belgian Ale theme, so, Ommegang Adoration and Goose Island's Sophie.

Dark winter Belgian v. Light winter Belgian! Who shall win? Come on Friday and find out!

This Friday we're gonna hit up the beers of Russia... or what we have from Russia at the local Liquor Barn anyway. That would be Baltika #9 and Baltika #3. It's a pity that Baltika is the only brewery from Russia represented at the local Liquor Barn ( Read more... )

We have another beer tasting this Friday, per usual, and we'll have beer there, per usual.

This Friday's theme is "Seasonal Ales" (namely, winter seasonal ales) and I'll have Bell's White Winter Ale and Pyramid Snow Cap Winter Warmer AleI'll note that these are technically two different types of beer. I'd just never heard of a "Winter Warmer Ale ( Read more... )

So once more the hue and cry arises!

This time I'm announcing my beers for next Friday and weekend at large...

Kapuziner Weissbier (5L party keg)
Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Stout (6 pack)
Schlafly Oatmeal Stout (6 pack)

I'm totally stoked... and hopping. *Hops*

I haven't thrown one of these in a while and feel like gettin' all of mah furry friends together and drinking (well, with those that are legal to drink) until we poop in our pants. Who is with me for a little hedonistic indulgence? Who wants to partaaaaaaaaaay?!

How about this:

When: November 7th - 8th

Where: My town-house. PM if you wanna come ( Read more... )

Ok, so I did, like, 500 pushups yesterday. Helping to train a kung-fu student in pushups before his PT test. My arms and chest feel awesome, needless to say, and I get kung-fu today and tomorrow too!

I've been feeling a little cabin fever lately so I'm hopin' next weekend's planned camping trip with abbarach will go off smoothly. I need to get out
