This bottle of Bell's Amber has an awful lot of sediment. Not totally unexpected (AFAIK many of their beers are bottle conditioned, i.e. live brewers yeast in the bottle to produce the carbonation), but this one seems particularly "chunky". Still tastes great regardless. :D

I've been laying off of the hard stuff, especially the cheap hard stuff... thumbs up on the Dogfish 90 though! :D

Guinness, I...I don't know how to say this. Please...sit down. Now, I know we've been together for a long time, so I want to say thanks for all of the great times we've had together. But I want you to know...there's somebody else.

A cheap but passable 2yo Chilean Merlot with grilled pork tenderloin for Father's Day lunch, followed by locally roasted coffee with about four types of deserts. All in all, a very good meal, and both dad and grandad look very comfortable at the moment.

I've been drinking a lot of Conflux #1 Collage, lately. Also Oak Aged Espresso Yeti, Bacchus, Strubbes Grand Cru, and Art of Darkness among other less exciting things.

Still trying to drink away an expensive and... regrettable... Saturday night in Tampa. If you've been to Tampa you know what I mean. They freakin cleaned me out man...

Weapon of choice is Jameson on the rocks, as usual.

water. Trying to recover from some wicked stomach bug/food poisoning.

Is there any lower calorie booze that doesn't like crap?

Oh!! I recently discovered Southern Tier Creme Brulee Stout...wow. Definetly the most aromatic beer I've ever come across and it easily takes a spot in my top 3 of all time. Great notes of coffee, chocolate, and VANILLA. Definetly something new. The bad part...it costs $9 per 16oz bottle at the liquor store near my house. :( Anybody know a cheaper way to get this stuff?

a cup of water an hour, nearly on the hour, every hour I'm awake :x Keeping hydrated lately has been a real PITA.

Recently i was introduced to Bio Disk 2 by one of my friend. He told me that charging water using BIO disk has great effects. Not sure if this product really works, anyone has any experience ?

Their web site screams "scam" and "MLM pyramid scheme".

Their home page claims that the product is "The next level of Wellness and bio photon generator", and that it improves water by "producing scalar energy frequencies" and "rejuvenating molecular structures". Total technobabble BS!

The third link on their home page ("Be a parter", yes they can't even spell "partner" properly) takes you to a page that says:
Bio Disc 2 web site wrote:
Welcome to the page dedicated to this great and amazing opportunity.You can become a Independent Reseller (IR) of QNET.net, the exclusive e-commerce on-line store, of Biodisc2 and all other bio energy products from Amezcua. No experience or skills need it.

OMG, run away!!!

(And no, I'm not going to post a direct link since that would help keep the site at the top of the search engine rankings. Google "bio disc 2" if you want to see their train wreck of a web site first hand.)

Mmm...Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA.

On a related note, Wil Wheaton posted something yesterday that I thought might interest the homebrewers around here. In short, Labely is a website that lets you design beer labels using a lot of templates, and it's free to design. I think the only costs are if you want Labely to print and ship you labels. It's not the most in-depth design tool, but it's pretty nifty. Here's one that I threw together in a few seconds.

Sounds fantastic!
I switched to Hair Of The Dog "Blue Dot" IPA. This is a great rye IPA... still my all-time favorite

Curious, that so many of the raving messages here are about IPAs
