Woke up at 4 am and drank a large bottle of mineral water. No hangover!

Some greek pale ale called Septem. It's nice and bitter but has no aftertaste at all. A bit boring.

If only it was Italian and made near Rome...then it could be Tiber Septem.

Coffee, brewed Japanese style. Which looks quite like normal filter coffee, but the angles on the thingy is optimized for coffee dripping and there's other mathematically thought out features on it too. So, it tastes like coffee.

That's the "well" vodka at the bar I work at.  The past two nights I've been drinking Boulder Nitro Shake for my end of night beer.  Quite tasty.

Missed out on a tapping of this stuff from Mikkeller-- a healthy 12.1% imperial stout aged in calvados barrels.  What I didn't miss so much was the $12/snifter they were charging for it.

In Cincy we have a Starkbierfest this weekend-- all beers are 7.5% and up (Ohio limit is 12%).  I was gonna skip it because I'm trying to moderate things a bit, but I've been good the past few days so I'll probably go if I can hitch a ride with someone.

Lagunitas' Copper Ale.  Pretty good, but I'm at 3.5 and I'm feeling more bloated than drunk.

Gonna hit up Deschutes Brewery this weekend.

Taking a drive to Seattle and stopping on the way. I'll have some beer, maybe meet fhdz if I can, my cousin in Seattle has a new baby. This can't be bad.

Then, next month...Austria.

Sweet.  I had had several of their beers back in my trips out west and they just recently started distributing in Ohio.  I like their Mirror Pond and that Hop Henge experimental IPA they do.  Black Butte may be my favorite, though.  I really like that they're one of the few larger-sized craft brewers that still brew with fresh leaf hops rather than hop pellets.

I went to that Starkbierfest and paced myself since I didn't want to come home fitshaced.  So I paced myself, got samples in 4 oz. cups (except for when they goofed and gave me a full pint in exchange for my sampler ticket-- wasn't gonna argue with that). 

Everything on the tap list was local.  Had a really solid Dark IPA that was a dangerous 10.5%, a tasty but probably slightly overhopped Maibock that I believe Christian Moerlein just released, an 11.5% Belgian Quad aged for a year in a bourbon barrel (hence the name "Grand Crow")-- tasty but 4 or 6 oz is about enough.  Star of the show was a Belgian style IPA from Listermann.  I think it was finished with Galaxy hops-- superb beer.

Mirror Pond is my wife's favorite beer. We first had it a few years ago on tap at Blind Onion Pizza, which seems to exist only in Reno and Portland.
