new member recruitment

MattDav and Jake-
We need more members so we can make this blog seem somewhat alive. What kind of incentives can we offer to entice people? How much money is in our treasury? Matt, are you willing to don a gorilla suit? Maybe we should take a bunch of people to a boxing match, get them housed on some good beer, get them rowdy, and have them sign some kind of contract or something.
If all three of us put our brains together, then we'll have at least one full brain.

Weyerbacher Blanche

Another good one from the boys in Easton, PA. The Blanche is a Belgian style wit, Belgium's answer to Germany's Hefeweizan. I took a trip today with Jake to the Beer Yard in Wayne to stock up on some beer. Weyerbacher family of beers hasn't let me down yet, so I thought I'd give them another shot. For some reason, the Blanche was calling my name. The label looked cool, I guess. The guy told me to pour it with a slice of orange. No orange in the fridge, but it tasted refreshing and smooth. This was a good summer beer. I'm becoming a big fan of the Weyerbacher beers. Whoever is in charge up there in Easton is doing some good work. Next time I get this beer, I'll be sure to grab an orange.

Mattdav in the house!

Yo. Mattdav in the house. I am all out of beer, but let me just say one thing. Harpoon is good. I am not sure it gets the credit it deserves.

I recently consumed a Harpoon sampler case....which had 6 Summer Beers....very summery. Smooth....sort of like a Corona-ish feel....

Also, it had 6 IPA's--which, if I had to....I could live off of for several days....without water or food.

It also had 6 Brown Ales which pretty much are filler in the case....and then the UFO Hefeweizen which I think was my 2nd favorite after the IPA.

Next time, I promise to put a little more thought into my posts, and more humor.

I need to buff up on the terms "hoppy" and "non-hoppy" and "wintery" and "summery" and all of the other assorted beer terminologies. That way, I can hang with the big dogs...

Its going to be hard for me not to just get the same case as it ended up ranking a 85%....solid B.

Mattdav out until the next case run.
