    Hearing this song for the first time was like a religious experience for me. It was the same tone, heaviness and attitude that I'd been hearing in my head for years but hadn't yet achieved. Still chasing that dragon to a certain extent, but I'm getting there!

    Strange Brew is the name of an 80's film, which is also where my avatar is from. If you're not familiar with the movie "Strange Brew" you outta familiarize yourself with it you hoser. It's a beauty of a film, eh. The 321 is there because the screen name strangebrew was already taken.

    King is a nickname that many of my close friends called me. Also my last name is Kingsley so that is part of it as well. 75 is one of my favorite numbers and also my jersey number from high school from back in the day.

    "Spitshading" is a watercolor painting technique that many tattooers use when painting (usually) sheets of flash.

    My favorite beer is OTWOA & I'm currently really digging on porters.

    I couldn't come up with a good name so I just picked my favorite Dogfish beer and put the age I was when I started my account after it. Immort was the first high ABV beer that made me rethink what beer could be and was very instrumental in my eventual obsession with craft so it seemed fitting at the time. I also wanted it to be reflective of my avatar which, at the time, was an Alex Grey illustration. Since then. I've seen many other users with Alex Grey avatars and eventually one with the exact same one. So, since I always have to be unique and stand out, I now use an illustration done by Luke Brown who's like the new Alex Grey. I have many cool stories, bro.
