Beer of the Week (on schedule even)
Week of July 28th --- Beer of the Week
Sweaty Betty
Good beer, better name. Sweaty Betty is a solid blonde wheat beer that is ideal for drinking on a hot summer day. If you are a connoisseur of the wheat beer this is one you will need to add to your catalog.

Brooklyn Summer Ale

Beer of the Week
Week of July 14th --- Beer of the Week
Double Simcoe IPA
The Double Simcoe IPA is a hoppy beer. Hands down the hoppiest beer I have ever had and at 9% ABV is also packs a potent punch. After the first three drinks I was pretty sure that it was going to be a struggle to drink the whole thing. But after passing it around, making everyone else at the shindig try it, the taste really grew on me. There was only one problem, after drinking the Simcoe every other beer for the rest of the night tasted mostly like water (and I was not drinking coors light).

WTF?
Lose 10 games in a row.
Trade your best pitcher.
Take 4 straight from one of the best teams in the game.
Cleveland Indians baseball, catch the excitement!

Random Thoughts
C.C. is gone from the Tribe. Maybe it is an elaborate plan to get some prospects and then sign him back at the end of the year? No? Too bad.
Rafa Nadal vs. Roger Federer was the greatest tennis match I have ever watched. I don't normally enjoy tennis but I stuck with it through both rain delays to see what would happen. That kind of rivalry is exactly what tennis needs.
The U.S. Olympic Trials have me pretty fired up about the Beijing Olympics. I may not be a fan of all those sports but there is something about watching the best in the world compete that makes me sit down and watch.
Along those same lines Le Tour de France is underway. With most of the big names and teams out for (suspected) drugging it should be a very open and competitive tour. Le Tour has also tweaked the format (no opening time trial, no team time trial) and the rules (no time bonuses) to make things a little more interesting. I am a fan of the lack of time bonuses, now the riders times will truly reflect their time on the road.
College Football is only 52 days away!!

Caguama
Caguama is not a bad beer, but it might as well be Corona Light.

Beer of the Week
Week of June 30th --- Beer of the Week
Summer Shandy
Beer mixed with lemonade? Sounds awful, actually tastes OK. Well tastes OK assuming that it is at least 90 degrees and sunny. So here is hoping that your 4th of July is sunny and warm so you can enjoy some Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy. Based on the local weather forecast I will probably be drinking some Coors Light in the rain.
