THE MUSKATEERS

We tend to save some kegs every now and then for events and special occasions. Sometimes a few get lost in the shuffle. Sometimes they don't. Last night we tapped a very rare but unbelievable treat, Troubadour Obscura, an 8.5% mild stout. My fellow Northsider's, this is what great Belgium draft should taste like. A thick creamy head on top and luscious malt liquid underneath. Most Belgium draft is good, some are great, but this will blow your doors off. Let us not kid each other, this stuff ain't cheap, but it is worth every penny. So stop on in and get a taste of some really great beer, you will not be sorry. All for one and one for all!

LET'S TALK

Let's talk, turn off your I-Pod and let me talk to you. Let's drink, put on your red shoes and let me go drinking with you. Hey boys and girls, I just got this letter in the mail from the Blogger Association of America or B.A.A. for short. It says "Black sheep, black sheep, wool? Yes sir, bags? 3 full. Now I am not sure what the hell that means, but I think it is a coded message for me to blog more before I lose my B.A.A. membership. But it's just that damn W word that keeps me from having fun. You know what word that is. The one you have to show up to get paid for. But if you take a look at the events of 2008, you will see why I have to do what I gots to do. Now back to Northside. 15 tickets are still left for the wine dinner. It will be a right smart time in the old town with Mr. Bill in the kitchen putting a great meal together. As soon as I find out about the what wines are going with what courses, I will gladly dole out that info. Also this Sunday and Monday I have some very serious R and D down in the first state with stops at Stewart's Brewery, Dogfish and Fins Raw Bar for their version of Oystoberfest. Vote on what I will see more of, the liter mugs of beer or the bathrooms? Well gotta go, it's taco night and I need me a beer.
