Repping northeast Ohio. I salute you.

It's just a Kraken & Diet Coke for me tonight. A touch light on the DC (about 1:1 instead of 2:1).

Had a Zombie Dust for the first time tonight. Pretty damn good, prob about 2 months old at this point though. Either way glad to finally try it. Really reminded me of Hopslam on the taste and a very big floral citrus IPA. It is NOT a Pale Ale.

NOT a Pale ale.. True that. It says an Imperial Pale Ale, but tastes like an IPA. Good stuff.

Been drinking this lately. Bought a 6 pack. IPAs aren't my thing but a couple times a year I don't mind one. I actually prefer it out of a bottle than pouring it.

If it's your thing, it's cool, but to me, it's like eating with your hands.

Depends, good beer I prefer a glass everytime. Drinking nascar beer, with less flavor, no issue drinking out of a can/glass.

Half Acre and Three Floyds - two of the better Chicago breweries - are doing a collaborative IPA, release party tonight and I'll be there. Can't wait.

Yeah, this was kind of the idea behind my comparison.

I'll eat pizza, hot dogs, hamburgers, etc. with my hands. Cheap foods that are usually of little nutritional value or culinary expertise. The better the food, the less likely it seems to be acceptable to eat with your hands. Better food = utensils. Better beer = glass.

Sometimes I don't either. Every now and then, I might eat a steak with my hands. Just as a general rule, I use a knife and fork.
