The 3 christmas beers have been great. I usually can't drink more than one of each before I'm ready for bed.

Founders Breakfast Stout and Celebration Ale make a great black and tan! Think I'm going to be drinking a few of these today.

It's not virginity, and you're not marrying it. Open that sumbitch.

I drank my last Pumking last night. I needed something to wash away the heat and flavor of the Stone Crime. That beer was nothing but HOT. Worst Stone beer that I've ever had. Wondering what the Punishment will be like. I'll wait a few days before trying that one.

Brewkettle has a solid list, but they BLAST top 40. Hard to have a conversation.

Tremont has a sick list, would recommend. Food looked good too.

Fat Heads list is also impressive, maybe the best of any listed, but has more a family restaurant vibe IMO. Food was decent, but about the greasy-iest thing I have ever had.

If you're looking for a good beer, all 3 are solid. Nice thing about Brew Kettle and Fat heads is there about 15 min from each other.

If you want a big but not massive selection but amazing food hit up Bar Cento.

I want the best on tap beer available. Quality over quantity.

So, I'm not buying beer between now and January 12th. Saving up for a trip to Vegas. Convinced my wife that if I could save enough to go, including cutting out beer and putting beer money toward the trip, she wouldn't gripe about me going.

Well, my decision was purely financial. I'm not giving up anything for reasons beyond that. ESPECIALLY not beer.

I'm trying to cut down on my brew purchasing over the holidays as well but it's hard! Plus my buddies and I have a $200 weight loss challenge until the end of January for our trip to Mexico. Beer doesn't really fit into that equation well. Made possibley my last beer run for awhile this past weekend. Hopefully it lasts a few weekends at least!
