So now I've got NoDa Hop Cakes, Hop Drop & Roll, Westbrook Gose, some Wicked Weed beers, and maybe a few surprises on the way in addition to Pliny.
What a great way to close out February...but man I gotta stop spending so much money on beer.
I don't mind when it is truly outstanding beer. At a family gathering recently my niece told her mom, my sis, that the Nocturnum I was drinking cost over $10 bottle. My sis was honestly upset about this, in her mind imagining me drinking 6 or more a night. Her alky ex husband and her alky daughters drink like fish, cases of beer, bottles of booze, killing themselves. We probably spend the same or I spend less, so some perspective is needed. Last night I had a $12 bottle of Indian Wells Whiskey Barrell Brew. It sucked and that's the only time price bothers me. I couldn't finish it. It made me want a Coors.
