Ok - today's huge for me, just received notice that I've passed my 9th and final exam for architectural registration - it's been a long road for me - been working on this project, I guess since 1993, when I entered architectural school - something like 7 years of college, 'bout 5 of 'internship' then I've been doing the exams for 3.5 years too. Does that add up? Anyways, I want to brew a big beer to celebrate - let's make it a 9% ABV beer to represent the 9 exams.
I'm thinking a big stout - it'll have to be a PM beer considering my equipment - since it's to celebrate architecture, we'll make it the "Loadbearing Stout".
How does this look?
