    My taste buds lean American styles but there is no denying the goods...

    I'm going to enjoy a couple of Grand Teton brew. First up, 2012 Coming Home Holiday Ale, $6.99 for the 750 ml bottle:

    It's tasty but if you're looking for a more typical American Barley Wine Style Ale, there's others out there that will please you more.

    "Liking" the beer, not who you're rooting for... Go blue! :stuck_out_tongue:

    Happy to report that Chimay Red holds up well underneath uncorked, less than ideal cellaring (left on countertop overnight) conditions. Happy New Year, BAs!

    Working on a bullet of Bare Hands Honey Badger. Its a Citra DIPA with imported honey. Very cool beer that was xmas present from my wife! Gotta love a woman who "feeds the machine". This is the same woman who just advised me to upgrade to a 3 tap system because an ad on craigslist was a good deal! I am unpacking all my beer after the move home from CA. Pretty cool to get to sample some of the new breweries to pop up since I left about 4 years ago.

    Happy New Year's all!

    This was my New Year's eve treat: had dessert (four miniature trifles) with fireworks going off in the background, AC/DC on TV, good company and Southern Tier Choklat. What more do you want?

    Moving on to today. Have the house to myself for a solid week, so I had a nice meal: leftover venison ragout with some pan-fried potatos, sautéed mushrooms, bacon-wrapped green beans and apple sauce. Paired with a Black Albert, my first and original craft beer love.

    Now sipping on this, an excellent nightcap. Not my favorite in the series, but still...

    Celebrated the New Year (and a day off of work) by going ice skating with the fam. I didn't fall this time!

    Now having my first beer of the New Year: Third St. Aleworks Puddle Jumper. Wouldn't you know it, the 1st fell on $2.50 Tuesday.

    Cheers.
