    Revolution Fist City is my new favorite. Not sure how much it's available outside of Chicago, but check it out if you get a chance. A perfect pale ale that isn't overly hoppy and 5.5% so it won't get you drunk too quick.

    Had a few Leinenkugel summer shandy's on the golf course on Saturday....nothing like golf and summer shandy.

    Yeah, Rosa is pretty solid. A nice and refreshing summer beer. My wife loves it. Gotta support the local businesses! I used to live about a mile from Half Acre and was a regular over there getting growler fills....not as many brewery options in the burbs.

    Those were tasters not a whole bottle.

    The deep fried ravioli was delicious.

    that's what I thought, too.

    on closer examination, those were all TSTR...tasters, probably 3 oz.

    All tasters except the four glasses of Pliny.

    First time I had heard of Knee Deep that night. Picked these up a couple of days later. A single, a double and a triple.image

    Jai Alai is awesome. I drank a ton of that when I was in Florida for a week last year. Unfortunately, can't get Cigar City in Illinois.
