Cuve Rene is great. Really tasty and dirt cheap (as far as Gueze goes). Also, it not sweetened on the back end like most of the Lindeman's product line. The Lambic, Kriek, Casis, etc. are heartburn city for me, but the Cuvee Rene is not.

I liked Chillwave a lot I drank several, while enjoying the theatrics of Metallagher (Minneapolis's greatest Gallagher- themed Metallica cover band) last fall,for the Mrs. birthday. She has great taste in music and is the best.

I believe you mean David S. Pumpkins. Also, those dancing skeletons were great.

Lakefront's (Milwaukee,WI) Brandy Barrel Aged Pumpkin Ale is pretty tasty. Well worth picking up a 4 pack of if you see it. This coming from a guy who doesn't like pumpkin beers or brandy.

Toppling Goliath's Psuedo Sue. I know they call it a a pale ale, but come on it is an IPA.

Luckily you can easily get it out of state as well. Bell's has a pretty large distribution footprint. I'm with you though. The first IPA I ever tried, way back when, and it is still regularly in the beer rotation.

Thanks for the rec's. I'll give them a try.

Aside from Star Wars Rebels and Gravity Falls, what else is good on XD? I those are the only two I've watched, from that Network. Their app is Chromecast compatible, which I wish more networks would do (gives AMC & IFC a dirty look). Anything else I should be checking out?

"I don't even own a rake…"

Not rake leaves? You must not live in Northwest Wisconsin.

Just got a confirmation on a huge project that is going to occupy 70% of my work time for the next 2 years. It also involves a huge amount of LiDAR data that I get to play with too, so yay!

I watched Grizzly Man on Netflix last night. Is it just me or is everyone on camera in that movie bat-shit insane? That coroner gave me the creeps so bad.

Lucky.

No, but I did try Hatter Royale and it was interesting, to say the least. Whiskey hopped with Centennial hops

I love my beers with wild bugs in them. I hopped on the Wild Ale train a few years back and haven't looked back. It's really cool that you got to try both Cantillon and Utopia at a festival, though.

Hoping to get my grubby paws on some Surly Darkness RIS, when I head up to Duluth MN, for an evening meeting tonight.

Raking Thread
I hate it because as soon as I'm done, my neighbors leaves fall and blow into my yard.

That was me. Annoying sure, but definitely not a dealbreaker for me.

I bought it on launch day for PS4. It's great, but not sticker price great. Luckily, I had a a bunch of Gamestop Powerup Rewards point's banked from taking online surveys . It only cost me $10 in real money. A must buy if you see it on sale somewhere, though.

X-COM 2 is great. I've been hopelessly addicted for the last couple weeks.
