Another Awesome Ale

So, I get off work last night and I ask the bartender at one of my favorite watering holes, what new big IPAs do you have? And without missing a beat he says have you tried the Lenny's RIPA? As fast as I sampled a taste of it I was sold.

It's a big big beer; a Double IPA. As the Shmaltz Brewing Company literature says it is brewed with an obscene amount of hops and malt. Then it is aged in Rye Whiskey barrels. The combination and aging work to perfection. You might think something that big would be undrinkable. But, no it was amazing. I would like to have ordered another but at 10% ABV I decided not to since I was driving. But, the next time I am the bar I will have several more glasses of this wonderful beverage.

ESPN Screws Up...Again

I've said it before and I'll say it again, ESPN needs to stick to televising sporting events and stop pretending to be journalists. They're NOT. They are biased. A number of their so called experts are NOT and they are a fraud.

For the latest ESPN screw up, check out this Rivals.com piece about how the ABC owned network conspired against former Texas Tech football coach Mike Leach. ESPN is a damn joke and no one wants to call a spade a spade. But Rivals.com has gone after ESPN. If you have a few minutes make sure to read the story.

Happy Birthday USA!

This is about a week late, but Happy 235th anniversary to the United States of America! May God bless her and may he bless the armed forces of this great nation. Here's a big thank you to the men and women of the military who keep this land free and allow me to put my head down at night and sleep soundly. This country has some extremely serious problems with which to deal, but there is no where else on this planet I would ever live. GOD Bless America!
