I second that one from TOM BURNS!!, that porthole tasted more like asshole! Seriously, an awful beer!

Weirdest beer - Curry IPA from the "Hop Barley and the Alers" crew at Club nite (yes, they wore dreads, knit caps, and had on brown makeup!). It was actually tasty.

Best beer of the Club nite - German Chocolate Porter from GBC (Garage Brewers Club). Tasted just like the cake - tres yummy!

Pro nite - Sam Adams was giving away their new glasses. Plus, they were pouring their signature series (hand bottled w/corks) - Kreik, Belgium Tripel, and Flanders Red (my fav).

Take-away from the tastings - new appreciation for Ciders and Meads.

Tony, I am not even going to ask how you know what asshole taste like!

Really, I figured your favorite would be the penis beer.

Readers: I am not razzing Tony, there was a beer there with vermon penis in it and guess who got to take home the bone!

Surly had Darkness and Four on tap in addition to some other regulars. The had some really great beer at the brewery too. The Abrasive DIPA was incredible. Everyone there had a story about how it caught them in the boo boo. Omar is cool and took some time to show us around.

I will be grilling pork loin sandwiches and my girlfriend will be making some sort of desert for us. I anyone wants to bring a side or chips that would be great!

You can park in the driveway or across the street on Meadowdale Dr., try not to park on E ave because the road is narrow and it blocks two traffic, I wish the city would get around to widening the road.

My house is the only house on E ave with a 3 stall garage.

I'm bringing some cole slaw (and beer!) Is there anything else you need?
