Upright Sole Composition Series Blend Love...more sour goodness...this time in the form of a wild ale...I like it, I do...but it sorta bugs me that I'm probably never going to see it again let alone try any others from the series...

Saint Arnold Pumpkinator...was certainly glad to see/sample this, but I've had so many pumpkin beers lately & the memory of that home brew was still fresh in my mind...& the home brew was killer...

Fantôme Magic Ghost...I brought this one...it's new & unique...I cannot describe it...it really does pour without head & it really is green...it's already got quite the reputation...there's a buzz...I know it has lemon grass, but there's a rumor out there that it contains spinach dust...in any case, it surprised a lot of people...highly recommended...

Three Floyds Biggs' 'Stache...sucks to be me, right?:)...

an unknown Hill Farmstead beer..I have another pic of it w/a tag, but I cannot read it...the first letter looks like a T:)...anyways, nice & rare...

Beaver Pecan Pie...I have absolutely no recollection of this, if I'm honest...

Kuhnhenn Crème Brûlée Java Stout...ya...kickin' myself for never visiting this place...everything I've had from them's been glorious...& this guy shows up w/a fucking growler?!?...cheers to him...that's a helluva drive...I thought I had it bad at four hours...there were some New Yorkers & some Chicagoans...what an event!...

fittingly, I'll end the pics w/a bottle of Jackie O's Grand Wazoo...I immediately thought CRAP, I just opened one for that Sun King/HBG Tailgate for Nothing event...& I agonized over that decision...I know it's just beer, but this one's special & it's drinking crazy good right now...just the nature of small batch beers...I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough...

I'm sure there are many beers I've missed...after picking up my allotment & heading over to the brewery side, I went into trade mode:)...

apparently, I did pretty well...before I headed back to the hotel, I landed a second Rum Barrel Apparition...

Can I eat dinner to the honor of Chris's new citizenship and the reduction in evil celebration of Dinny's father's retirement?

Baked chicken with asparagus prosciutto and fontina with a glass (or five) of '08 Forefront Cabernet Sauvignon. I like!

The Caskstrength cocktail-ish blog is posting on the Cocktail Advent Calendar at the bar where he works, Rob Roy in Seattle. He is a pretty funny ranter writer, and here is his description of the event:

The Cocktail Advent Calender at the Rob Roy is a gift to you, the guest. It will enable you to enjoy the holiday drinks classics that have become taboo for so many reasons; because they are never made well, because you are embarrassed to order them, and because it is morally wrong to order a Spanish Coffee. Rob Roy’s bartenders will make a new, likely sweet, libation for each day in December up until X-mas eve. X-mas eve will be Blue Blazer acrobatics. I’ll post each day’s new holiday cocktail and its recipe on this blog as we count down to the 25th of December.
