    Christmas Ale Label - First Draft.

    i would lighten the opacity on the green inset to bring the image forward. Maybe use a white glow around the image . also consider chaning the snow cap font. It doesn't bother me but seems a little too cheesy. The v-clip at the bottom of santa's suit reads kind of funny too. Maybe square...

    Car Accident Stories

    Almost the same thing as Tx. I was 17, driving my parent's Saab. Driving home late a night from a friends house and I was blasting "Bulls on Parade" by Rage and two dogs walked across the road. I swerved to avoid them, missed one, got the other. When I tried to correct the swerve, I...

    CH Evans in Albany NY

    It's pretty good. They have a decent selection of beers and the food ranges from pub-grub to actual dinners. Worth a visit for sure. Brown's Brew-pub in troy is better in my opinion though. A couple doors down is Ryan's Wake which doesn't brew but has a decent selection of not-too-common...

    Otter Creek's Stovepipe Porter

    Otter Creek has a pretty good line in general. I've never had the porter but the Copper Ale is definitely worth while.

    Lager Vs. Ale yeast in Rauchbier

    Thanks for the input. I will be relying on the forgiving nature of the yeast for either choice, but doing a lager will be both fun and exciting... I am game. I am sure the girlfriend will be really happy about me staring at my carboys even more than usual. "look honey, this one is...
