    Pre rose bowl warm up with a glass of pfreim pils. Reliably excellent as always.

    Should pair well with the chorizo nachos the wife is whipping up.

    What if I'm just drinking it in the northwest but it isn't a northwest beer?

    Not really supposed to post it, but people make mistakes all the time. I've lost track of the number of times I've personally made this particular mistake.

    On that note, am now drinking a pfriem mosaic pale. Excellent, and pairs quite well with chorizo nachos. In a bit, I'll see how well it pairs with Di-gel.

    Since I'm team player, I'm helping to kill off the Party Shirt IPA from Boundary Bay.
    Earlier, Monika, Tyler, and I finished off the last couple bottles they brought up, a Hampshire 1 and a Ruse sour. We then hit K1, before they rolled back south.

    Now drinking a Bend Brewing tropical pines ipa. Just cracked it open, and just like that, the ducks started playing better and have taken the lead.

    Might nurse this glass for a bit.

    Now at the local watering hole enjoying a glass of Grains Of Wrath, Papermaker Pale while watching the game. Complimentary cheese platter is a nice touch. Cheers.

    9 years, I think. Perhaps a bit oxidized, and the flavors were muted, but, when I get around to entering the review, it's gonna still get a good score. Tyler didn't care for it, but I thought it was still pretty good. The alcohol heat was faded, but there was still nice bourbon and wood aspects.

    Now drinking a Sunriver make it a spade dude, in the hope the ducks can persevere and bring it on home. Christ, what a rose bowl.

    Nice beer, but a bit sweeter and maltier than I prefer. Still pretty tasty though.

    Leftovers, Pt. 2: Drinking a very festive can of Georgetown Meowsa, one of the most dangerously drinkable Double IPAs I have ever met.

    I dig leftovers.

    And Ducks fans wonder why we consider them the Alabama of the NW.

    I have no idea how to take that. I'm not sure if it's a complement or an insult.

    I'm no crimson crud fan, so I'll happily accept this as a well deserved insult. :sunglasses:
