Wow. I just found out that I am actually doing yoga when drinking. Oh yeah I am turning into quite the limber barefoot runner.

Oskar Blues can do no wrong. They have one that is an IPA blended with a red ale. Even my IPA hating friends love it.
Mmmm speaking of which had a Red Ale from Nimbus a semi local brewery in Tucson. It was very similar to the g'knight, a hoppy red ale, it was great.
Also went through a Breck Brewery vanilla porter and a Left Hand winter lager. Both were good.
Starting to work on some of those Christmas ales... working on some more interesting composition other than around my computer desk. I suck at composition but I'm trying. Oh and I was using a full manual lens which is still hard for me to use and it was very dim so blury, etc. but anyhow here I am getting warmed by some Winter Warmer, and also 750 degrees black locust.
Beer is going to be flowing once I get back from my run. A nice India Pale Ale to ring in Christmas as we finish up the balance of the stocking stuffing and get my.... um I mean Santa's midnight snack ready by the tree (a nice plate of cookies and a glass of milk with a chaser of cold lager to keep the toes warm).
That reminds me of the song I am Santa Claus (I combination of Black Sabbath's Iron Man and Jingle Bells) where the lyrics say "Leave him cookies and beer, he'll be back to your house first next year". I have no idea how one can combine Jingle Bells and Iron man but somehow Bob Rivers did. Awesome song.
My supplier couldn't find any Boulder beer so I ended up with Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA. Really good but the price was a little steep.
Also, Newcastle Winter IPA. Different taste for an IPA, but I quite like it.

Green Flash West Coast IPA. One of the better IPAs ever made. Anybody ever seen a real Green Flash while out on the trail? When and where?
I know its a little late, but we have not had our Christmas yet. Well I had my Christmas in bottle, at least.
East End Big Hop IPA from the east end of Pittsburgh. I've got a sixtel of it in the kegerator.
What could be more appropriate than the Champagne of beers? We tried that fruity high falutin' beverage - the champagne of wines. Drinking dessert just leads down a bad road of eating snails and really bland cheese named after that waitress at at the T&A, you know, Brie? Next thing you know, you'll be holding that mason jar with your pinky out and eating impossibly small sammiches. Really? Who in tarnation came up with that hair brained idea? "Let's make 100 tiny, unsatasfyin' sammiches. It'll be a hoot!" Bet it keeps the women folk outta the way for a day.
I am drinking a fantastic (if I say so myself) Double Bock home-brew. Everyone went through my Double IPA last night.
Had sashimi for New Year's so I thought I'd have some Kirin Ichiban to go with it. Mistake. Tastes like crap. I used to like the regular Kirin beer quite a lot when I lived in Japan, but this special export version leaves a nasty aftertaste. Had to wash it away with yet another 22-ounce bottle of Arrogant Bastard. Martini Asti at midnight. Yum.
