Urgh... been battling a monster cold for the last two weeks, which has made beer drinking next to impossible. I can't taste shit, and I'm so high on cold meds that a single beer gets me buzzed in a bad way. COLD BE GONE SO I CAN HAZ TASTY BREWS OVER CHRIMMAS!
On a related tangent, has anyone looked into getting some Westvleteren 12, since they've opened up US orders? I'm assuming it all got snapped up immediately, but figured I'd ask...

Get better man! Yeah, unfortunately Westie sold out of every location in like 10 minutes. It was ridonkulous. 85 bucks for a six-pack, and people were lined up around blocks.

Homebrewing is so awesome. The only downside is the agonizing wait while the beer is fermenting. I have to force myself not to just stand there and watch the bubbles come out of the airlock
How do you make Black Tuesday better? You get it for free!

And you post a picture of it sideways, apparently.

Thanks, man! The cold seems to be passing, which is good on many levels, not least because I gathered some beers for the holiday. Nothing too crazy - some BBCs, and a Brooklyn 1, a Brother Thelonius, and a Duvel. Just enough to get through in style...
Too bad about the Westie - I figured if anyone around here would be able to get some, it would be you... my liquor store owning friends just laughed when I asked if they had looked into stocking any...
OHMYGAWD!!!!!! My beer store has Founder's Breakfast Stout back in stock! Needless to say, I picked up a four-pack, along with a Berkshire Brewing Coffeehouse Porter and Steel Rail Pale Ale. Oh, and a couple of cans from a new local brewery - one Golden American Ale and one Robust Porter. Gotta stock up for the snow storm!
Just had my first Breakfast Stout in months. Just slightly colder than room temperature. And it was SCRUMDIDDLYUMPTIOUS!
