I ended up havin a Sam Adams Black & Brew & a Russian River Blind Pig.

I actually took Christmas Day off. Did plenty of drinking leading up to it. Probably start back up tonite for MNF....

It was the third annual blind beer tasting at my in-law's house on Christmas Day. There's some fun prizes for the person who guesses the most correct styles and breweries. I have a nice point system set up and a sheet with about 20 breweries and styles to choose from, so even the totally clueless have a chance at getting some right. It's all for fun and hopefully at the same time educates a few participants. The 8 we tasted: New Glarus Apple Ale Club Premium (Ecuador swill :) ) Boon Mariage Parfait Gueze French Broad Zepptemberfest Lagunitas Our Own Bavarian Doppelweizen Southern Tier Krampus Samuel Adams The Vixen Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Ale The winner won a 1.5L of Russian Malt Liquor. YES!! [:)]

Tis the season, and Scott is doing it in style at the Beachcomber. Some very big beers on tap. I had a growler of the Abyss, and another one of Oakshire Gingerbread Stout. In a day or two Black Butte XXIII and KGB aged one year. Not to mention all the IMP IPAs!
