will travel for beer

3.02.2006

phat wednesday.

if you know me... you know how much i love eli cannon's. you also know that 90% of the time i get the spicy chicken ceaser, hold the onions with dressing on the side. you probably also know that you can usually find us there on tuesday's for tastings...

well, my partner in crime works evenings lately, so we have had to miss the tuesday night tastings... which was a bummer, because this week it was eli's 12th anniversary rolled up into a fat tuesday party. which we missed. so we went on wednesday because that's jim's weekend.

i was so bummed when i read a leftover flyer for the previous night... they gave away a 1 year mug membership!!! for free!!! and you didn't even have to be on the list!!! dang, i knew i should have gone solo.

anyhow, enjoyed good beer, excellent new sandwhich called "the boss" (holy chicken and cheese and ranch deliciousness) and saw several lucky people get offered to start their new mug memberships (including one girl who was drinking a gin & tonic... she wasn't even drinking beer!!! actually... when i think about it... there was an abnormally large number of people there ordering mixed drinks last night...).

seriously bummed because i have been wanting a mug for about forever... i've been on the list for years! we asked for the tab... and carrie came back and offered us our very own mugs... "are you ready to start your mug membership?" i should have responded, "does a bear pee in the woods?" instead, i said "yes! yes! yes!"

so it's official, definitely a phat wednesday. definitely a great way to start of march. mug number 158 please... FINALLY!

drinking :: mikeys01's double ipa. damn this shit is hoppy and so tasty. "yum."

p.s. attended the cambridge brew house game dinner last week. i love me some game and good beer. see pictures here. madness to continue this weekend.... split thy skull @ mugs ale house where i will love me some russian river (did i mention how fabulous blind pig is? no? it is. if you haven't had it get it. now.) and goose island.
