BEER!

Sorry for the lapse in posting, have been busy with the holidays and the start of school.

Beer is good. I don't care what anyone says. There is nothing better than sitting down to an ice cold glass of refreshment. I am not talking about that mass produced crap, I am talking about beer that is brewed with care. I am talking about beer that people put effort into, beer that is meant to be enjoyed. You see, to me beer is about enjoyment, not just something that can get you drink to get drunk.

I recently had the pleasure of enjoying a great beer given to me by a good friend. It was a cherry stout brewed by Bell's Brewery out of Michigan. Normally I am not a huge fan of stouts. Guiness to me, tastes like a chocolate bar in a glass. If I want chocolate I will just eat it. This stout was different. Yes, it does have the slight hint of chocolate, but the cherry complements it well. It is a rich dark brown and if poured right has a thick creamy head. It is one of the only stouts that I have ever liked. Overall I would rate it as a A-.
