still drinkin' brew for breakfast
Okay so it's Sunday morning and not only have I read thru the NYTimes online but I even did something productive -- went out and weed-whacked around some of the places where the mower won't go (actually, I guess that's more destructive, but the point remains). What better way to wrap up the pre-noon hours than writing about beer? Yes, Dogfish month continues, with Raison d'Etre. And, yes, it's brewed with raisins. And, yes, the name's a horrible pun but the beer's actually good enough that I can forgive that. Which is saying a lot because I hate puns. But I wouldn't have named it "best beer." It doesn't quite match up, for me, to the 90 Minute IPA. Nor has it tempted me, per the website, to sip it from a snifter. A pint glass will do just fine, thanks.
