Good for you. I'm finishing mine off...nuff said if you read my comments. Different favors for different players. Even Reps were given, from one snob to another. :)

My grandmother passed away yesterday unexpectedly so I am planning on drinking quite a bit today. Had a Heavy Seas White IPA. Enjoyed it. Having a Sam Adams Porch Rocker now. Really good warm weather beer.

I'm liking it right now on this warm day. It has a lemonade aftertaste somewhat reminiscent of Summer Shandy but I think this one tastes better.

Killer did you get the Sam Adams summer pack? I was thinking about getting it but felt like I'd only like half of them lol.

Sorry to hear about your grandma.

Sorry to hear KE. That sucks.

Started with an Anvil ESB by Alesmith tonight followed by the unveiling of my homebrew Black IPA. It's pretty tastey. Might dive into a prairie saison after, depends on how drunj I feelz.

Sorry to hear about your grandma Killer. Hopefully you and your family are hanging in there.

Tonight, I'll be opening up a growler I got last night at a local microbrewery. The brew is a German style wheat beer. I normally don't like wheat beers, but this has a little bit of a banana aftertaste. It's a really good beer.

If you're close to Cincinnati, I would highly recommend Fifty West Brewing Company on Wooster Pike just past Mariemont. We went last night, and I liked literally every beer on the menu. Great stuff.

Damn Killer. I hate to hear about that. I guess I've been away a few days too long.

I've actually haven't had any beers lately. The Wife was drinking which means I drive...But I agree with Sherm. Never been there, but it's Local !!! I will make it there.
