Drinking in a new decade...(2010)

Post by Dohol »

I actually kinda' liked 2009...It would have been nice to keep it going a while longer..


But since I'm a powerless peon..

Here's to 2010..

These last 4 represent my general trajectory over the course of the evening last night at La Trappe, in north beach, SF... There was more, but I forget...

I like this, but I think I prefer the regular version. Lightly carbonated, very drinkable.

Hora, have you ever been to the Thirsty Bear? I'm not a huge beer snob, but just about every time we go to MOMA, we go there for lunch, and the beer pairings with the small plates is incredible. They have some very good food. Its really the first time I've ever been impressed with pairing beer with food. Some of the best beer I've ever had.

Actually, I ended up posting that to a few friends facebook profiles yesterday, the first time as a weirdly topical comment on a link to mepearl.com which is an advice column/blog run by a dead squirrel...! So, yeah came in handy!

That is easily one of my favorite things to drink in the entire world. Oddly though, I noticed they had it on tap at the Trappist about a month or so ago and was excited to have it not from a bottle and it barely tasted like the same beer. Allagash can do no wrong in my eyes.

i was unable to find any beer by allagash in pittsburgh, at least not at the three largest places. bummer.

i'v been so broke lately that i'm tempted to dig up a bottle of world wide stout that i buried in the woods last winter... i was trying to save it for christmas.
