    Stay positive, life throws us all curve balls from time to time. You seem grounded and will turn this around into something great! Cheers to that "Born Again" mindset!

    My first beer in over 3 weeks due to an antibiotics regimen. Can’t say it was hard going without...but I am REALLY glad those 3 weeks are up! :yum: The last hoppy beer in the house and 10 weeks old, so I went with this. Tasting so good.

    Feeling pretty good for a Monday so I cracked open a Crowning Achievement by Barrier and it’s fantastic. An imperial stout made with maple syrup and then aged in bourbon barrels, it tastes exactly how it sounds. Very smooth for 12%. Barrier did a great job here.

    [​IMG] In the 90s early 2000s this was the beer that just blew me away, it ran about 11 to 12 % and with a new brewer it is 9% and not even close to the same incredible beer, still nice but not what it was.

    Congrats on the move, the greater Denver area really is a craft beer Mecca. We head down once a year during GABF and stop in Boulder to go to Avery. I think you’ll really enjoy it. Cheers!

    No you do not but who knows what guys will do. I guess i con\sidered the worst. I apoilogize.

    I am sorry if I offended you. Having two daughters has made me leery. But if you are interested, the youngest got married last month and the oldest just had a baby. My daughter was born Jan 26. Her husbanmd was born Jan 26. Their daughter was born....yes Jan 26! yes. Awesome.

    Ok. Thank you for understanding. I promise not to intervene again.

    Sorry to hear about your situation. As someone who recently went through a pretty large life-changing event recently, I can identify and I just hope whatever’s going on between you guys is something that can be sorted out over time. I’m not even gonna pretend to know what’s going on so I just wish you luck and congrats on finding a place you like. Cheers.

    Thanks for the kind words. Not everything can be sorted out, but sometimes not trying to fix it is the best way to fix it.
