Remember to pick up your beers before Friday's first beer. Only two short days until we are all enjoying some Family Drama!
If I was more tech savvy, I would insert audio of a drum roll here...

Testing...1...2...3. Looking at the list, and have some great expectations, or may be better put - curiosities. Even though I traditionally eschew from some brews that I consider to be making it just a little too complicated, in looking at the list, I am kind of looking forward to the Flying Dog Otterbein and Fisher's Popcorn brews. (If you ask me, B'more Berger cookies are kinda meh; Otterbein's Chocolate Chips are where its at.) Best beer names methinks: Sleigh'r and Rise and Pine, so high expectations there as well. Looking forward to 12/1. Seacrest, out.
ReplyDeleteFive sleigh bells for the analysis and the Seacreast out.
DeleteLooks like Dan has some cookie expertise. Maybe he can provide cookie pairing suggestions for all of the beers.
