My Best Gift

My daughter and son-in-law gave me a Microbrewed Beer of the Month Club membership for Christmas. It has been quite an impressive gift. Every month I have received 12 American microbrews (3 bottles each of 4 kinds of beer). This month I received beer from Wyoming (my first ever Wyoming beer) and Massachusetts. I've gotten everything from Milk Stout to Porter to Belgian Wit to India Pale Ale. It's been quite a ride that alas, has come to an end. My membership officially expired with this shipment. I'm going to start my own personal club at Homsie's (they don't have a website, but their beer selection is great and so is the boudin).

Some of my past and current selections. The kegs on the lower shelf contain my homebrewed version of Bear Republic Racer 5, ready for tapping this weekend.

A sideways view of the well packaged and protected container that the beer is shipped in. I saved them all for future mailings.



And alas, my notice of termination


Thanks for the memories, Liz and Brett!

When you come to California, you'll be beered out, but we have been saving some oddball beers for you. Slowly taking over the fridge....
