This year, I couldn't make Hoptoberfest, which was on the eve of my birthday. Sad. However, I had an amazing meal at Terre Rouge last night to make up for it (Chuck Hughes was one table away, but I didn't see him around the corner).
Now, today's my b-day again, and my Mrs. put together a little package of things from group buys that she stowed away plus some surprises she got friends of hers to bring me. Happiness ensued. I felt obligated to share the beer porn. There's some Nogne, Cantillon, Deschutes, Hawai'i Nui, Jolly Pumpkin, Fantome, Lindemans, and Lagunitas in there!
