Day Twenty-Two (of 30) More Beer

The payoff for all of the driving we did this weekend was a pair of New Glarus six packs, and a pack of Unplugged Enigma (specialty brew). So far, I've only tried the Moon Man, and it's delicious. It's a pale ale that has a hoppy twang to it, but it's less intense than an IPA. It is to IPA what 312 is to a hefeweiss. If you get that comparison, you should have a pretty solid idea of what it's like.

I'm looking forward to trying the Honey Bock (Cabin Fever) and a second shot at Enigma. (I just read the description and remembered that it took all four bottles to actually begin to appreciate it last year, but then it was gone.)



Of course, the real payoff this weekend was seeing our friends and family and receiving a bunch of nice, thoughtful gifts for our son. The beer is just the icing on the cake. Okay, the icing on the cake was the icing on the cake - the beer is the cherry on top.
