    What the f*ck?!?
    This thread dropped to page two!

    I am at my favorite brewpub up here, which reopened under new ownership a few months back. Well, it reopened last August, but the taproom just reopened.

    At first, they made everything "hoppy", but everything is back and better.

    And, according to my better half, the best wings she has ever had.

    I've got a Two Hearted at this late hour after tending net in back to back hockey games. Do we really have to go a month and a half with no Fire action?

    I'm not a big fan of whiskey outside of bourbon (and sometimes rye, but that's real hard to get out here), but I thought the Jack Daniels Honey was half decent whenever I'd have it at the bar. So I figured if I got the Jim Beam Honey at the convenience store it'd be solid. But I think the reason I like the Jack Daniels Honey is because it barely tastes like whiskey. So the Jim Beam Honey just barely tastes like bourbon. Which means it kinda sucks.

    Fantastic.
    Nyquil tastes awful, but usually works.

    Zzzquil is just for sleep, no cough suppressant or NSAID, only diphenhydramine.

    I am at the strangely named "Turtle Stack" brewery in La Crosse.

    It would be pretty mean to stack turtles. The could fall and break their carapaces. Although in rocks they will stack at times (to avoid predators and, I think, preserve body heat).

    It is tiny. One store front, 13 seat bar, about half a dozen tables and the brew house is about 500 sq ft.


    They do have some decent enough beer though.

    Nothing particularly noteworthy, but a very light Maibach, a passable oat brown ale and a pretty good vanilla porter. The stout is a bit bitter but bland.

    I am at a state conference this week. I will have to find a place to watch the opening matches tomorrow. Not hear, as they don't have a tv.

    Couldn't read the label.

    Figured it was some sort of kratom/Delta 9/whateverthehellitis you ingest! ;)

    I suppose, since it is coffee, kitty would be totally awake and even more erratic than cats normally are.

    Once my better half bought some specialty Colombian bean coffee. She hated it and set it in the porch to toss out next time she went to the garage.

    The dog got into it and ate, well, too much. The dog was wired and her pupils were gigantic.

    She never had coffee again (the dog, not my better half).

    I think that's how coffee was discovered a goat herder in Ethiopia realized the goats were wired after eating the beans

    It's got what plants crave. 50 cents not bad. I think I need a break from caffeine I wonder if these will help. I forgot I took one of those jet alerts yesterday at work. So I took 2. Glad I didn't have a panic attack. Why are my suggestions on YouTube so weird?
