belated update

Well, my contract began two weeks ago, and Paul is already working on catching up. He only has a little over a month to do so until my contract is up! Here are the last few beers I tried before I began my summer (which has been going well, thanks!):

Stone Smoked Porter: It's been a couple of weeks since I had this but I remember it being great and my notes say "Mmmmm" so I'll go ahead and guess that I liked it quite a bit. I seem to recall the smoky flavor, and the full flavor of a good porter. I'd have this again.

Ithaca Ground Break: This was a pretty refreshing beer. I can't say that I know much about saisons (I think I said that the last time I tried one, so here's a little more info), but I can say that I seem to enjoy them. This had a bit of flavor to it and was very enjoyable.

Southern Tier Oat: You know, I'm always looking for a great oatmeal stout, and sometimes that means trying some not so great ones. This would be one of those not so great ones. It was just too flat and just not impressive in the flavor department. This falls somewhere between kinda boring and kinda gross and I wouldn't really recommend it. Kind of disappointing that it was the last beer before midnight on the 24th.

That leaves me at an even 270 while Paul works on catching up from his 254.
