I am too lazy to see if there is a "The Beer Thread", so this is "A beer thread".
What is the Backside Bar & Grill without beer? Don't answer that question. It wasn't meant to be answered. And to put to rest any questions, no, this is not a beer review nor a place for them. This is where we check out each others labels. There is only one source for beer reviews. I am glad they found a new home. http://teleskimark.myfreeforum.org/ftopic51-0-asc-0.php
I don't really drink much alcohol. But when I do, I like to be thirsty first. Skiing does that to me. However it is especially true once the days start to get longer. There is some whiff of spring in the air that gives me a slightly manic feeling and a desire to tip back a few brews. Soon it will be spring skiing time and the season of parking lot tailgating with stuffs on the grill and of course beer. It will be a bittersweet end to a somewhat so far "meh" season.
So what to drink? Lately, I have had this thing for Switchback Dooley's Belated Porter. It just hits the spot, especially when you let it warm up a bit. Mmm, mmm good. Dark and just the right amount of whatever it is that makes me like it. My wife and I do have a debate though. We often split a bottle. Did I mention that I just don't drink very much? She likes to mix the sediments up before she pours it. I like them to be well settled and pour off the beer very carefully. And she doesn't want to get a whole bottle's share in her half. The label suggests mixing it up before pouring. I think they are the type of folks who don't mind the occasional bongwater gargle. Sigh. I guess we have to each drink our own bottle.
Drink up, bitches.
