And you've seriously depleted their supply, it would seem, Dave! GO DAVE!

I truly believe if it weren't for beer, sports would have never been invented.
Posted by: Bethie | May 23, 2007 at 04:52 PM
*sigh* Still sitting in my office, dry, dry, dry.
I may have to tap some homebrew at the end of this day.

Mr. Blog, you're repeating yourself.

Shoot. I get a FIRST today, and it's not even under my own doggone name. D'oh! *cringe*

I LUVES Harp. Not kissing up. I'm from the Guinness clan. Anyone who makes good beer in Ireland is automatically made royalty. As it should be.
and of course that makes me a princess...with hops.

don't suppose Harp's makes a non-alcoholic beer? yeah... that's what i figured.

CH, quit rubbing it in. *grumble*
Posted by: ScottMGS | May 23, 2007 at 05:05 PM
CH is allowed to rub it in right now, Scott. He just spent two weeks in S
willweden where the beer is apparently taste free.Posted by: Deskdiva | May 23, 2007 at 05:20 PM
I had to resort to drinking Belchian beer to find anything half-way decent!!
Posted by: Clean Hands | May 23, 2007 at 05:23 PM
Homebrew at CH's?! I can be there in 2.5 hours ;-)

"...[A] princess...with hops..."
...should be looking for a frog to kiss, shouldn't she?

for puppytoes.

ScottMGS - you want flies with that, sweetie?
(CJ hates the 'flies' joke - that's why I do it so much)
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | May 23, 2007 at 05:42 PM
Come on over, CH! I've got a couple of different ones to try out. :-) ScottMGS, you're welcome, too, but your drive might be a little longer.

Last evening I was forced to drink a local Hawaiian microbrew called "Longboard Lager". The bartender looked at me cross-eyed when I tried to explain to him that it isn't, in fact, a lager but it's a wheat pilsner. That was followed by a short class on summer ales (a foreign concept in Hawaii). They may know their foo-foo umbrella drinks here but they don't know jack about beer. Can't wait to get back to PA, home of America's oldest brewery. BURP.

I think I've seen that beer over here, too, Layzee. It's gotten decent reviews, but nothing like what the local brewers can do.
Posted by: Clean Hands | May 23, 2007 at 05:52 PM
Layzee - I can empathize, but if they're serving you food & drink/ don't diss their stuff. Unless you can see them preparing your food at all times.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | May 23, 2007 at 06:10 PM
Home Brew…sigh. No such luck here. So we are forced to drink whatever we can
find.

This linky no worky?
Posted by: Clean Hands | May 23, 2007 at 06:37 PM
Thanks, CH, but that is a little out of range. And, no, Annie, I don't need and flies with that.
Posted by: ScottMGS | May 23, 2007 at 06:37 PM
Yep, Deschutes makes some pretty nice stuff. Can't say that I've much encountered Cascade Lakes, though. Might be time for a road trip. Explore my home state, that sort of thing. Might should arrange for a designated driver, though.
Posted by: Clean Hands | May 23, 2007 at 06:39 PM
You might want to avoid these beers, then, Scott.
Posted by: Clean Hands | May 23, 2007 at 06:42 PM
Eh, lambics are a little too bitter for me. Here are two that I would avoid assiduously, though.
Posted by: ScottMGS | May 23, 2007 at 06:50 PM
And of course my captcha asked me to type in "kybud9". Yuck!
Posted by: ScottMGS | May 23, 2007 at 06:51 PM
Bitter? No, that's an IPA, and probably a PNW one. Lambics will be sour, sometimes relieved with enough fruit sugars to make them downright scrumptious, particularly for the ladies. (It's no mistake that I usually try to get myself stationed at the lambic counter when serving at beer fests on hot summer days and I have my mirrored shades...)
As for the scrumpy and the cock ale, I guess I'd have to try them before saying "never." The scrumpy, I can get my hands on today. The cock ale, though, I'll have to make myself. Hey, Cheryl, want to help me finish off this next batch of homebrew?
Posted by: Clean Hands | May 23, 2007 at 06:56 PM
CH YESSSSSIRRRREEE!
Invite coming your way.
Posted by: Cheryl Howard | May 23, 2007 at 07:15 PM
*PERK*
cock ale???
Posted by: Siouxie | May 23, 2007 at 07:16 PM
Siouxie and Cheryl, look at the recipe before you get, ummm, excited.
Posted by: ScottMGS | May 23, 2007 at 07:19 PM
CH - Yeah, I meant sour. I'm not a big hop-head either, though. My partner, however, is an Arrogant Bastard.
Posted by: ScottMGS | May 23, 2007 at 07:21 PM
Sio--I think we need to put on our bondage gear to prepare the cock ale?
Also.
*sniff* I just check the Rock Bottom Remainder site. And I quote "We are no longer accepting entries into the contest. The winners have been notified and are making their arrangements to come to NYC for one fun night." *checks email inbox* I got nuthin.

Dang! Me neither.
