Fegley’s Brew Works Space Monkey

This was the second brew of the night and the last one of Katie’s six-pack. I really liked letting her pick out beers for me. She picked out beers for me that I would have never picked out myself. I’m thinking this may be a theme (that’s a hint, Kate). So, this brew is a [...]

Jolly Pumpkin Bam Biere

Halfway through the week! I had a crazy busy day at work and then did an hour of cardio at the gym. I’m definitely tired now. I’ve been watching the Rangers game for a little bit. This series has been pretty exciting. I used to be a huge hockey fan and I haven’t watched it [...]

Great Divide Colette Farmhouse Ale

Today was a crazy day at work. I actually worked some overtime and jumped into an ambulance. I think it’s been about 5 years since I’ve done an ambulance trip (I did work the hurricane in an ambulance, but we didn’t get any trips). So, it’s definitely beer time and this is one from a [...]

Unibroue Blonde de Chambly

This was the second brew that I had at Twin Light. According to the owner, this beer is one that is usually only available in Canada. It was actually incredibly difficult to find any information about this beer online. The label on the tap handle was really pretty with a blond girl on it. I [...]

Dogfish Head Noble Rot

Yesterday was another stressful day at work. Since I had a bad day, Katie was nice enough to take me to one of my favorite beer bars, Maloney’s. Honestly, the ambiance and the crowd are really nothing impressive to me, but the beer selection and the sheer amount of taps are. They constantly get different [...]

Goose Island Sofie 2009

Today was a crazy good day at the gym. I threw up 134 lbs on the Hammer Strength chest machine (it’s this really cool plate loaded machine and I tend to use it when the benches are taken). This is actually more than I weigh now, so it’s pretty impressive. I also found this thing [...]

Jolly Pumpkin E.S. Bam

This was a total case of the Mondays. After having smoked brisket last night, I did not feel like getting up this morning. But, I got my behind out of bed and work went pretty quickly. I hit the gym afterwards and I started upping my cardio. I’m trying to lose another 5-10 pounds by [...]

Pretty Things Jack D’or

It’s almost the end of the holiday weekend. I can’t say that I’m really looking forward to the rest of the week, but at least it’s a four-day week. This is a brew that I had been looking around for. I ended up finding it in Massachusetts. I have to say, the bottle art on [...]

Terrapin TomFoolery (Side Project 14)

This was one of the beers that I had last week. As usual, I’ve fallen behind in updating the blog, so I have a few brews to update the blog with. I also made a great beer run today, which I’ll go into detail about later. So, onto this brew. This was a brew from [...]

Troegs Scratch #33

I love saisons. It’s another style that I definitely got into from writing this blog. Originally, I preferred hefes, but now it’s all about the saison. This was one that I tried at Troegs that was part of the “Scratch Beer” series. ABV: 6.0% Style: Saison/Farmhouse Ale Trivia: From the Troegs blog, “When developing a [...]
