Wait Wait! Pumpkin Beer Part IV

This week's Wait wait... Don't Tell Me! featured Randy Sprecher of Sprecher Brewery outside of Milwaukee. I am generally amused by this snarky radio game show, but now I want to visit Milwaukee!

Not My Job with Randy Sprecher


Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! from November 17

In other news, the pumpkin ale that Mike and I made in October apparently came out well. I have been sick for the past week, so it tasted pretty awful to me, but those who tried it have had positive reviews so far. Looking forward to tasting it myself when my mouth doesn't taste like bronchitis, and hopefully enjoying a few with friends this holiday season.

Pumpkin Beers Part III

Celebrating New Jersey-- River Horse's Hipp-o-latern: I split one of these with my cousin Jon when he and Janet so graciously hosted my charge and me earlier this week. This was pretty sweet, but if it was less sweet, would have been perfect. You can taste pumpkin! The spices are strong and good! Despite being sweeter than I'd like, I really enjoyed it. Clean finish so it wasn't weirdly sweet or leaving an awful aftertaste, very smooth to drink. I would probably actually get more of this if entertaining people who like pumpkin beers.
