Its almost bee the full year! What are you going to do with yourself after?
P.S. I noticed your tree up there. I refuse to let my wife put ours up until the month at least begins wit the letter "D".

Send some of that snow this way. I went for a hike today and wished I had worn shorts...
Hot Scotchy's RULE! Particularly on snowy brew days!
It was very nice. A little sweet for my taste but definitely warming (takes the edge of brewing in the garage in winter).
There is a solution for you if the regular Hot Scotchie is too sweet - wait to drain the wort into your cup until after the first hop addition! Done it, and it wasn't near as repulsive as I thought it might be. I did prefer the non-hopped version though.
I have a friend who's dying to try it with rum, but in my opinion, sweet + more sweet just won't cut if for me. The Scotch provides the balance, and that's why it's one of the bestest things on the planet in my opinion!

Tried one of those Winter Lagers at a get-together a month or so ago. It was like cough syrup made from concentrated elf **** after they were fed nothing but pure Christmas extract intravenously for 55 weeks of the year starting the previous holiday season.
Nasty.

Nice! If you need to run errands, you may as well make it an adventure. Right?
