Trying to set up our new house and celebrate the holidays pushes updating the website down the list of priorities each evening. Sarah has been bloggin' away, though; you can follow her iPhone photos of our recent event over on From the Desk. More to come here, though; prepare for Motorcycle Mondays to resume with gusto.
Sarah and I went to a friend's house to watch the Lesnar/Overeem fight. It was a BYOB sort of gathering and I brought St. Bernadus Abt 12 because a] it's a Belgian abbey ale I've never had that turned up on-post and b] it looks strange enough that no-one would "accidentally" mistake it for something they brought.
When I got it, I had no idea how much Beer Advocate loves this one. I had it chilled on ice with the lagers that other folks brought and I think that was a mistake. At first I thought it might not be cold enough. It poured with a big root beer float head and tasted over-roasted for an abbey ale. As it warmed up, it got better, but I don't think my choice in glassware helped either. Probably one I'll have to try again.
