My Head Hurts...

... after wading through all the comments in the post linked below.  The ever-so-slight pain is prolly due to infrequent cogitation or perhaps too much of same at a single sitting.  Nonetheless, there's a cure for that:


That would be a 1554 ("beer requiring cutlery to consume," as Blog-Bud Daph sez) and a San Lotano box-pressed maduro.  The latter is new to me as of a couple o' days ago and I love it.  The stick is a medium-to-strong, flavorful, and immensely satisfying smoke.  

And now it's outside for the first time in a couple of days for an outdoor Happy Hour.  In full sun, no awning wanted nor required.

  1. I came on line and read through your "Linkage" post and went over to Lex's place and read ALL of it. I wish I were with you so I could drink a beer and relax my brain, too.

  2. I almost gave up towards the end, Lou. But I hung in there, as there was MUCH enlightenment to be found. That said, the beer did wonders for my head. So much so that I believe I'll have another.

  3. My head already hurts from a long day at work. I think I'll save it for another time.

  4. So Buck.... are you going to indulge in Samuel Adam's Utopia... a beer that is 27% alcohol? I hear it got great reviews from the critics...

    I am very curious about it... and would be willing to pay the hefty price for it too...

  5. BR: Don't forget to read it, tho. It's good.

    KC: I'm not at all curious about Utopia. I've had very strong ales before (in Europe) and while they're interesting they're not my cuppa. I think Utopia is a gimmick of sorts and wouldn't pay the outrageous price even if I could find it around here. Which is HIGHLY doubtful.

  6. beer requiring cutlery to consume - I don't know that Daph says this with a gleam in her eye or her heart in her throat.

    I am of the latter opinion.

    Then again, after you waded thru Lex's post and then launched one of your own...I don't blame you.

  9. We HAVE to get together for Happy Hour one of these days, Moogie. I SO regret blowing the opportunity this past July. (sigh)

Just be polite... that's all I ask.
