    This is the first time I've seen this term used outside of a homebrew forum.

    Knocked back a niegbors hedge and gained about 4 feet back of my property which I needed then did some more planting. I'm beat but treated myself to a Rouge XS Old Crustacean barelywine style ale.
    Fantastic.

    The Old Crustacean goes great with a slab of blue cheese... :)

    My weekend booze was restricted to a homebrew cherry melomel (mead).

    it came out crisp and clean with a rich cherry undertone. Probably around 13% ABV.

    Wow. Sounds great.
    I need to brew again. I've got about 20 5gal kegs needing to be filled up again.

    One of the bet beers I've ever had. Hopefully hooker approves.

    This past weekend was a growler of DogfishHead Aprihop on Friday, followed by a growler of Troeggs Nugget Nectar on Saturday.
    Good stuff.

    Weekend starting early for me since my company let me go early when I put in my 2 weeks notice. Yay!

    I figured that is why we have not seen you here. So how did they take it? When do you start the new gig?

    When I told my boss, his reply was simply "F***" :lol:

    They kept me for 2 days afterwards, just getting my projects ready to transition and stuff.

    I start the new job next Wednesday. Turkey season opens this weekend, so that gives me 2 extra days for hunting!

    I've personally never tried the smoked porter, but it's from a good brewery in my area. Let me know what you think.

    I took a tour of the Blue Point Brewery this past Saturday. We were there in the middle of a pub crawl 5k, people were coming in and pounding beers than running to the next bar in 25 degree weather. I prefered to stay at the bar drinking some of their cask aged Hoptical Illusion.

    I'm racking my brain trying to think what I can send you in return. We just do not have anything on Heady's level down here, although Jester King is highly regarded.

    Do you like sours?

    Have you had Heady before?

    I just happened to get lucky with getting my hands on it, so no worries trying to get something of equal quality. I'd take a hole in the wall brewery or anything of the sort.
