My favorite beers all remind me of something very distinct. I'm not sure if that's what makes them my favorite or if its a happy coincidence. Any one else? Aroma Big Bad Baptist - See's Candy Store Lagunitas Sucks - Pate de Fruit Taste Rochefort 8 - Cheese Cake
It reminds of this one time, years ago, when I was backpacking across western Europe. I was just outside Barcelona, hiking in the foothills of mount Tibidabo. I was at the end of this path, and I came to a clearing, and there was a lake, very secluded, and there were tall trees all around. It was dead silent. Gorgeous. And across the lake I saw, a beautiful woman, bathing herself. She was crying...
And you of course ...........made her smile! And as just reward she explained to you that you must cross the seas and head further west to find a decent beer.
My homebrew reminds me that no matter what lies ahead, at least I have the basic life skill to brew my own beer. Winter is coming.
