A beer blog about drinking for yourself
Even if you’re (considered) lame and go to a cheap (but super…) place to get your haircut, you’re talking $30 to $40 bucks. When you are paycheck to paycheck, that is too much.
Too much because $40 is three live drinking sessions at a bar for me. I can stretch three, maybe even four, visits to a bar with $40. That’s much better than a haircut. So it’s long hair for me until further notice.
Cheers!

A day off from work. Took my daughter around a bit. Had some In&Out for dinner (brokeass dad). Dropped her off and started a drinking session at local beer bar, Out Of The Barrel (again).
First was the “Sticky Bear” from Moonraker Brewing. A WCIPA. Enjoyed it:
Now I moved on to “West Coast Offense” from Cellarmaker Brewing (pic at top). As you might have guessed, it’s a WCIPA. It’s drinking really “hot” but it’s only a 6.3%…still good though.
Currently battling my beer budget to see if I can get myself one more beer.
Brought my daughter out to Clovis to meet a friend of hers and since I am forced to be in this town, I took the opportunity to have lunch at House Of Pendragon Brewing.
Great smash burger and a nice Cold IPA. Glad someone is keeping the CIPA style around.
This is an appreciation post for Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. I feel like I can’t have a beer geeky blog without more acknowledgment of the greatest of all time Pale Ale.
Yes, to many of us Sierra may taste outdated. But it is the greatest “outdated” taste of all time and the best palate-reset beer in the business.
And as we are about to see, as Craft Beer goes, so goes Sierra.
Sierra Pale is a great barometer for how beer/Craft Beer is going. Just look at the search volume for Sierra and it totally goes along with how popular Craft Beer has been in the past fifteen years
