Actually, many of BB beers are among the top in class. That said, I think their high-ABV beers is where the show their chops. The Chocolate Stout is super great.

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

I've got 9 or 10 cans of each left. I'll bring them Saturday and you're welcome to take as much as you'd like.

I've also got some Avalanche Ale and Fat Tire as wells as a six pack of singles from Louisiana that I'll bring. I'll post a list later today so Trent can check it against his master list. Wouldn't want him to have to stop drinking because he ran out of uniques.

Sold on those cans.

Here's a thought on uniques. What if we blend various beers. The permutations are endless. Sort of like an Arnold Palmer (lemonade and ice tea) only for grownups. Although I'm not sure I could blend a Guiness with say a flat tire. Blech.

Not yet on my list...

That's going to be my Beer Mile beer and I only have 4 left. Sorry.

Got my warm-up in. 30 miserable minutes outside...ugh! Planning on stopping by Binny's On my way out as I didn't have time to shop yet. Still don't know what the choice will be for this afternoon and it's getting tough to find something that isn't on Trent's list yet. I have at least one in mind though. My only goal is to not get lapped by Spaniel.

Binny's has plenty I have not yet had Smile Wink

Wait. Warmup run? Cripes. Maybe I can do that out on the farm before the "race".

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

That's why I'm stopping there. Made a quick stop at two local places last night on the way home from work but they had more wine than beer. I figured you wouldn't settle for MGD, High-Life, Beast or stuff like that.

You might be surprised. Anything not on the list is game. As a reminder, less than a month ago I had a Colt45.

Of course, I puked an hour later.

Three times.

WrigleyGirl did some yeoman's work at Binny's yesterday too. Have I mentioned, in some ways I'm glad I don't live near a Binny's? Dude.

Ran a HM this morning for my warmup. Liver's warmup didn't happen though. Hopefully it can handle the Budweiser I'm drinking. Nobody laugh at me. Ok?

So bittersweet,
This tragedy
Won't ask for absolution;
This melody,
Inside of me,
Still searches for solution.
A twist of faith,
A change of heart
Cures my infatuation.
A broken heart,
Provides the spark
For my determination.
