Long Silence

May 4, 2010

I wish I could say that I have been absent and quiet for nearly three weeks because I have been somewhere quiet and secluded, where I have enjoyed the company of my lovely wife and son and beers. Sadly, this is not the …

April 13, 2010

Ahhhhh, English bitter. How do I love thee? For me, drinking English beers normally comes in waves, but this was a rogue one. Still, I have never had Marstons, and the bottle beckoned me when I opened the fridge. …
