From Allusions to Illusions
Before the end of the day I should mention that it’s my birthday. Woohoo.
Last Friday I sent out an invite to join me at the Brickskeller on this Friday (my birthday, observed). If somehow, I know you and you read this blog, and I failed on have you on the invite list, […]
It’s been a while since I made beer, perhaps as long as a year. Since I haven’t thrown any parties this year I didn’t have any deadlines in which I needed beer by some date or another and it takes me personally a long while to go through five gallons of beer.
But I ordered […]
This was the First New Eve where I didn’t seem to have any friends to invite me over to some sort of party or similar event. Not sure how it happened exactly. It saddens me. I went out to the Dogfish Head brewpub. Had a bottle of Pangea which I recommend […]

Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer.

You can’t be a Real Country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have a football team or some nuclear weapons, but […]
Went down to the Brickskeller last night with a small crowd of people. About 10 people, half from work half from Springfield gaming. A good time was had by all as far as I can tell. And since Bo drove down I got a chauffeur home, always nice.
The service may have been […]
It occurs that I failed to mention that I wend down to the Bricks of Friday… Just tossed out an invite to the usual suspects. You know the ones that usually get between 4-8 positive responses, and bang suddenly I had a group of 18.
V. somehow managed to acquire reservations at the Bricks which […]
Yesterdays beer class featured Great Divide Brewing Co from Denver Colorado. They are an actually a brewery (vs brewpub). The founder/owner Brian Dunn was there to speak with us. He was oddly tight lipped about the contents of his beer. Apparently he considers the malt/hops/yeast he uses to be trade secrets or […]
Beerwise this was worst of the classes so far. The speaker wasn’t bad and did his requisite admission of crime (providing beer to a minor and producing beer greater than 5% abw or approx 6.5% abv (illegal in TN)), but the beer didn’t excite me at all. I probably won’t spend much time […]
Back from the third Beer Gazetteer class. The guest in the hotseat today was Brian O’Reilly of Sly Fox Brewhouse & Eatery of Phoenixville, PA. There wasn’t a particular method to the madness in the sense of lines of beers or anything so after a brief intro I’ll start talking about the beers/lecture. […]
