    Boy, it feels good to be back on the forums! Stronger, Better, Faster, and More Smiley :grinning:

    Tonight I am settling in to watch the hilarity of the GOP debates with either a Courage RIS or a Bramble Rye. Can't decide.

    What's in your glass tonight? How do you like the new forums? CAAAN YOOU DIIG IIT?

    Yep, scooped up a few of them the other day.

    I went for it... pour was weird- almost brown in color- but this beer is awesome!

    Ipswich 5 Mile Pumpernickel Rye Porter for me. The new forum is sweet. Anyone know how to shrink the text like on the old BA forums?:sunglasses:

    I'm taking an experimental break -- a bit burned out after SF Beer Week, so I'm shooting to take a month or a little more off. This will be day one. We'll see how far I make it. Been awhile since I really exercised willpower...

    If you use Chrome, you can just go to View-> Zoom Out. One level works pretty nice for me. The only downside is holds for the entire BA site, not just the forums. So you either need to switch back and forth or deal with the smaller font on BA. I poked around in the forum settings and didn't see anything direct otherwise.

    As for LNBA, I'm drinking a Sebago Midnight Porter. Nice simple porter.

    Various enjoyable stouts. Had a single of the John Courage a couple weeks back... was NOT impressed.

    Top Gear reruns, on the other hand... AM impressed.

    I had my last Hopslam and it was a house of boozy mess. I decided to change it up with a Goose Island Lolita and I'm glad I did. It's slightly fruity, dry, and has plenty of funk.

    Started with a Southern Tier 2xIPA, then a Sublimely Self-righteous, and my second 2012 Bigfoot so far. Sometimes I wonder why I have a bunch in my cellar, it is so awesome fresh. Lining up 09,10,11, and 12 soon.

    Went out to dinner at a new place tonight and had Two Sculpin's on tap, and finished the night off with a FBS on tap as well. The food wasn't great, but I now have a new favorite drinking spot.
