It's Patriots vs. Colts in the AFC Championship tonight. So, I will take the bad pun from former Patriot linebacker Tedy Bruschi. After a Sam day, time on the couch with a couple of beers watching the game. LeGarrette Blount is fighting through the defense.
I was able to set the base with a couple of random shots during the day as the Pitts were at the game and ready to go early.
Tonight we featured a couple of more beers from the list and one extra. There was a Goose Island Winter Beer that was pretty tasty and then the couple of other ones:
Brooklyn Lager (Rating = 3.5)
As far as your blog-standard (pun intended) lagers go, this wasn't bad. I feel like I have a slight bias against the Brooklyn beers, maybe just the Boston - New York thing. But then, it is generally a sports thing and at this point, it really isn't a thing. A couple of other Brooklyn beers have been on the list and they aren't bad. I think I might actually like these guys - they make some solid beers. Again, nothing special on this one, but a nice taste on a standard beer. If on tap and I'm choosing between this and your usual Bud/Bud Light/Coors Light type of options, I would definitely pick this one.
On a side note, am I the only one that actually liked Hot Tub Time Machine? I really thought it was a funny movie. Lots of good 80s references. Gotta love Craig Robinson. I see that there will be a sequel, but sans John Cusack. Is it the same? I don't think so. But, it looks funny to me. I'll give it a shot. Hearing Craig Robinson sing covers of Lisa Loeb is good enough for me. Just thinking of Motley Crue's "Home Sweet Home" from the first one just makes me smile. Damn, I loved that song (and the great tour-style video. Remember music videos?).
Lagunitas Puls (Rating = 4.0)
Again, another fairly standard beer - Czech style pilsner, but a good one. It might be because I am a few beers in, but this was tasty. I've been intrigued by the Lagunitas beers - I see them at the liquor store a bunch. So, I hope this is a good sign for the ones to follow.
This seems like another one that you could have a bunch of on a good drinking session (aka a normal night).
Go Pats!
Beers Down: 75
