Have you ever seen the crazy booze sales they do in Chicago? The Sunday paper is stuffed with circulars for booze. The way it ought to be!

No i havent. I never been to chicago guess they need cheap booze to warm up.

Coffee while pulling reports for the boss.

WesleyS said:

Yeah, that's quite a bit. For their most recent trip down from Chicago, my parents packed 2-1.75L of vodka, 1-750 crown maple, 1-22oz bottle, 2-16oz cans and 2-12oz bottles of beer. All in one bag. They're crazy.

That is a lot. This was the most I've flown with. Usually 1-3 bottles is all I'm willing to pack. Couldn't pass up those Bombs tho.

WesleyS said:

What? Really?
My dad got it ridiculously cheap on sale at their local liquor store up there, so he brought them to have down here.

Are your parents snowbirds? Or they didn't trust that you would have vodka for them to drink?

What a shame.

I'm having a HB tripel after dismantling my car in the garage. It's cold as heck in there. Nothing 10% can't fix.

No, neither. They live in Chicago only because my mom's job was transferred. They still own their house down here and are down here pretty regularly throughout the year. The crown maple was about $8 cheaper up there and they got the 1.75L of vodka for about what a 750mL costs here. The vodka is for the camp house at the deer lease. More bottles than deer are killed up there each season.

Have the afternoon off - work closes to giveus time to run errands! Sly Fox Sly Ride ... winter warmer lager. Decent.



Hopefully this will make the mall bearable when I stop there next.

Polishing off the pot of coffee while scaling my barleywine recipe to 6bbl to run some number for the brewery... Almost 700lbs of grain, 30lbs of cane sugar, and 38 total pounds of hops if I stick with the dryhop, 28.5lbs of hops without. ipe:

Nothing can make a mall bearable, especially not this time of year.

Water. Headache. I need a new job.

In beer related news, I really need to stop buying these special releases. My wallet would thank me.
