    Maybe in the Spring, when the temps aren't so brutal.

    Divisional game queued in the background. Great games (IMO) yesterday.
    Better image of the beer color here:

    I wanna get the word out on the brewery, Element Brewing Company, too. Follow the link and hit the menu tab to bring up their beer and distribution info. I'm not, like, affiliated or anything, BTW, I'm just sayin' that as a general advocacy-thing. On the (BA) site, their three "core" beers (Dark Element (previously Dark Matter), Extra Special Oak (ESO), and Red Giant) don't have a lotta reviews, but they're really good beers.

    Heh. I bought the "trifecta" this past weekend:
    [​IMG]
    Last night was Dark Element. Later today will be their ESO...

    But for now, back to the Red Giant.

    And the game... :slight_smile:

    Peace!

    Just got back from the weekly Blues Brunch at Empire Brewing Company in Syracuse, where a new beer of theirs called Local Grind (a 7-something% ABV brown ale brewed with locally roasted coffee) went pretty damn well with some Belgian waffles there. It was really a very solid brown ale, with lots of good, fresh coffee character.

    My money's on Heady in a landslide. What's the one between Pliny and Heady?

    Myrcenary is a helluva beer. I've had 3/5 and of those 3, I'd choose Myrcenary!

    This is one bad ass ************. Something's just not quite right with it though - too sweet. But very good. Really liking my new CCB glass too. Cheers everybody!

    Nice to see stores arent limiting numbers of Blacknote! Four 4-packs! How much of it hit distribution? I heard they brewed a ton of it.
