That was fun, wasn't it?

Now that we've had some time to see what this blog is like when it's about writing, back to the beer for a little bit before I try that again.

We cracked open a bottle of the Bockenale at a barbecue on Saturday, just the one liter so everyone could have a little sample.  It's still technically green, since it had only gone into the fridge the night before and it really ought to sit a week after carbonation, but it was quite popular and people expressed interest in drinking it again.  Then they demolished a case of Lucky while we played bocce in the back yard, but you can't ask people to change overnight.
