Also an Ommegang Hennepin which I suspect had to be in the bottle but for some reason I keep thinking it was draft (always a good sign when you can't remember something). Some local brewery's nut brown ale in between the Ruination & the Hennepin which explains the memory lapse. A full-flegded ABV fest for sure.<BR/><BR/>Yum.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15398931203483061703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14594994.post-17040855710679488252008-03-21T13:10:00.000-05:002008-03-21T13:10:00.000-05:00I really would have liked to have been there when ...<I>I really would have liked to have been there when Smitty walked in a first saw their new beer selection</I><BR/><BR/>It was like those diamond commercials. The woman holds hr hands to her face. She can't believe her eyes. Her hands quiver as her eyes widen and slowly fill with water. Tears stream in great rivulets down her cheeks. She holds her newfound prize close; hugging it, loving it. All the while, her mouth is agape in what is part smile, part gasp, like she has found her youth again.<BR/><BR/>That's kinda what it was like.Noahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14345059376742159966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14594994.post-9332990132757399872008-03-21T12:54:00.000-05:002008-03-21T12:54:00.000-05:00I really would have liked to have been there when ...I really would have liked to have been there when Smitty walked in a first saw their new beer selection.<BR/><BR/>That would habe been priceless.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12669616484991718478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14594994.post-18746313924927926942008-03-21T12:42:00.000-05:002008-03-21T12:42:00.000-05:00Brannigan Brothers had a pretty interesting Irish ...Brannigan Brothers had a pretty interesting Irish food menu when they opened, then the went to typical "bar food". <BR/><BR/>Now it sounds like I need to give them another shot.<BR/><BR/>Maybe when Kelly's moves, they can expand their beer selection.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12669616484991718478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14594994.post-90030295204650971302008-03-21T10:12:00.000-05:002008-03-21T10:12:00.000-05:00Yeah.
