    I realize this is a little early, but I got started a little early tonight. Visiting my brother who introduced me to the craft beer scene and him, I and a friend decided to open some good stuff:

    Started off with a BA HI-FI, Bligh's Barleywine, Uncle Jacob's, and 1414:

    Well, I had a Ommegang Hennipen on draft as well as a Brooklyn Irish Stout. Then at the Pourhouse, I had a Hitachino Red Rice Ale! No pictures sadly as I did not bring my camera today...

    Of course my heart dropped when I seen that third goal from Spain. Even my wife was shocked, because even though she was totally for Spain, she expected Italy to at least score once. But alas it was not to be and my heart is sadden today. More beer is needed to drown it out!

    it wasnt the goals, it was how late they scored them. 84th and 88th minute? come on, thats just being an asshole at best. They could very well have just passed it around.
