I've been working my through the New Glarus brews I was gifted recently. Just had my fourth (in 6 days...), a 12% barley wine. It was lovely. I'm home sick with a sore throat and semi-lost voice. The alcohol soothed my tonsils. Next Friday the 12th, I'm having some home brewer friends from my work club over for an Almanac and New Glarus beer tasting night. We'll start inside and migrate over to the fire pit after sunset. I might even make my (cough) world famous tequila lime chicken enchiladas. Cigars might happen, too. It will be a night to remember.

I pretty much do. I'm not really sure where to expand my tastes, although I've liked a couple of IPAs I've had at Peter's house, I really like the complexity of the Belgians. Ken you've got damn fine taste in my opinion! I just polished off my last bottle of New Belgium Abbey that i brought back from my most recent trip to Grand Forks, ND. I was impressed for a pretty cheap, relatively ubiquitous brew. Last night I cleaned up a couple of these: Luxalune - Farmery It's also not the most remarkable beer, but it is refreshing to see someone try something different especially in Manitoba. It's probably fairly unique for a brewry to grow all their own raw materials. Looks like they have been pretty successful so far.

Ha ha, that does sound messy. Ken, I've still got a 2010 Trader Joe's Vintage Ale on my wine rack.

What time should I be there? I'll bring some Cubans. It starts at at 6:30. Send me a message if you want my address. I can have a guest room ready for you so your only expense would be the plane ticket.
