mon-night — The Monday Hangover: Other drink adventures of note from the weekend. Yeah, this took awhile to complete. Sue me. Friday FINALLY came after another looooong (but warm) week. By the end of it, I was just crawling towards Friday night cocktails, and Rule 37. A large double whiskey sour followed […]

smutty-plate — So the Lady Friend and I took a day trip up to our home state of Moo Hampsha for some good ol’ Granite State boozing. This is Part I of the adventure. For those who may have missed it, there’s a handy map on my White Birch Brewing post that […]

lakefront_brewinmke — Aside from the weekly Rule 37 drink this week, there wasn’t much to tell in a Monday Hangover post. At least, nothing noteworthy except Saturday night’s event: a beer tasting party featuring some brews from Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee, WI. I was introduced to Lakefront a couple years ago while […]

gloucester_pan — Hot on the heels of our visit to Ryan & Wood Distillery, the Lady Friend and I headed into downtown Gloucester to check another well-known North Shore location off our list. No, we didn’t see that statue of the fisherman guy. We went drinking. Of course. Cape Ann Brewpub. Welcome […]

flaghill_kamikaze — About a month ago I got an email from Flag Hill Winery & Distillery. I’ve been on their mailing list for quite awhile, having done their Harvest Fest before, and visited again last year with the Lady Friend, Sissy, and the Mother of the Lady Friend. They tasted the wine, […]

rw_alembic — I am sick. It’s not been a pleasant week. You should understand: I HATE getting a cold. I’m sure no one enjoys it, but I DESPISE it. I take it personally, as an attack on my body from a foreign enemy. So I’ve been fighting it. Vicodin-assisted slumber ensures a […]

mon-snoverhead — The Monday Hangover: Other drink adventures of note from the weekend. There will not be a Rule 37 drink post this week. On Friday, I went to Milwaukee for Trevtastic’s bachelor party. Apparently I picked the ONLY day this year that they’ve had snow (like the rest of the country). […]

gancreamale-analogtwitter — Last night was pretty sweet. DigBoston hosted a tweetup IRL event for Narragansett’s Cream Ale release party at the Salty Pig in Boston. For those who don’t speak Twitglish, I’ll translate. After last week’s Bock release at Stoddard’s, I was a bit miffed that my social duties didn’t allow for […]
