    Bros I drove to southern New England to score some parental stoke and be reminded why I live hundreds of miles away... Snagged two desperate sixers before I left the north country.

    Otter Creek (VT) Hop Session Ale - As I am spoiled by microbrews, I am definitely surprised at how tasty this was. It tasted like a lighter high end mircrobrew IPA like Zero Gravity Conehead, but very similar to Hill Farmstead's Edward. I give this beer a 9.7. I was blown away at how good it was. They say its a cross between an ale and an IPA.

    Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA - Sucked. Just sucked. I don't like their beers. Disappointment squared.

    That was last night. I am sure there will be more to come...

    Xmas = Wake and bake, drink lots of coffee and BS with family for a few hours, go surf for 2hrs, have an ice cold Modelo post session, continue buzz maintenance with a spliff to the dome, chug two rum and cokes, switch to Vodka Hunch Punch and continue till motor skills begin to decline, hand keys to wife, go home and and burn one more time before passing out... Is it New Years yet?
