Party of one, maybe two. Will bring water, beers for tasting and some more for regular consumption, a few dead presidents, and maybe some wine for Lawgrad91 and CathyCA. AW.

Here are some candidates for the NCSU tailgate. Since this will be DD's last tailgate for the regular season, its time to bring out the heavyweights. I will also bring some Red Oak Amber Ale per Rev. Lawgrad's request. 1. Dogfish Head - 75 minute IPA (7.5%) 2. Laughing Dog - Alpha Dog IIPA (8.5%) 3....

A slight sidetrack from the regular reviews. Check out a TV show on the Esquire newtwork called "Brew Dogs". It is about two guys, (brewmasters), from Scotland touring around the US brewing beer in unique ways and places. So far they have been in LA / San Diego, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Seattle,...

Any of our wine lovers have a suggestion for the NCSU tailgate in November? I should hope they don't give us a noon kickoff for that one. I'd bring something for tomorrw but wine for breakfast doesn't sound good to me. AW.

Party of one. Bringing the usual. Beer, bottled water, and some $ for TNT's shorts. Someone else can deposit the $. See everyone tomorrow. Except for DD, he's on call. AW.

The afternoon tasting actually started off with the Pumpking from Southern Tier but, as I arrived too late for the sampling, I shall not review it but simply shed a few tears lamenting our tardy appearance :(( . Maybe we can get August West or dpslaw to provide a summary ;;) . It will have to be dp...

I would like to take a moment and say thanks to TNT Devil for the rescue of my chair and its safe return. Much appreciated. See everyone tomorrow. AW.

Party of one. All the usual things. AW.

Tickets for Countdown 2 Crazieness came today. Basketball is just around the corner! AW.

I'm going to have to avoid the bottle shop for a while. Too many beers and too little money. I picked up 2 more for tomorrow. Both are new and at least one I think we might get Ozzie to try, ;) or not. They are chilling as I post. See everyone tomorrow. AW.

Stopped by TW today and picked up a few things. I will have a menagerie of beers for tasting. DD, see if you can guess what I'll bring. AW.

If anyone finds a folding chair in their collection that doesn't look familar, it may be mine. Plain blue, no armrests, no cup holders. It was up near the big grill with my red handtruck and coolers. Thanks, AW.

A bit of house-keeping- if you please: We hate to be bitchy but (the "but" means disregard everything preceding "but"), for this and all following weeks, we ask folks whom aren't actively involved in preparing, cooking or serving food to stay clear of the "kitchen" area whenever possible, especiall...

Party of one. Beers, more water as it will be a warm afternoon. AW.

Glad everyone enjoyed it. We will have to do it again. Suggestions welcome. AW.

From the 9/14/2013 tailgate, Verso Rosso Salento. A nice fruity red shared among Cathy CA, Lawgrad 91, myself, and tasted by serveral others. I thought it was very nice and went well with our Italian fare of the day. A nice addition to our regular beer tastings. My worth. AW.
