I'm on a ski trip in beautiful Colorado this week, so no new music for this post. I've been drinking some excellent Colorado beer, especially the
Breckenridge Brewery Vanilla Porter (the cream soda of beers), so I'm inspired to share pictures of my recent adventures in beer-brewing. I just finished my first batch of
ZILWAUKEE'S BEST, Chocolate Maple Porter, which turned out great. Malty, a little sweet, and delicious. Hooray beer!
