McLoofus 35,182 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Higher Ground IPA at my neighborhood spot on the docks. No idea who brews it. Drinks almost like a rye IPA. McWifey told me to stop and enjoy a beer on the way home. Well, okay then. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixpoint Resin might be my favorite IPA right now. Clocking in over 9%, but soooooo dangerously drinkable. And just the right hint of citrus in the hop profile to compliment the bitterness, which is ample. Definitely much closer to a West Coast IPA than an NEIPA, but not exactly that. Also got some wine and 2 bourbons, Willett's and Smokewagons's Small Batch Ryes. Had no intention of getting bourbon but they had a very few bottles of each behind the counter and my FOMO kicked my ass as it often does. Those are probably shelf standards in real markets but I no longer live in one of those. I can’t recall who here sent it to me, but that Sixpoint Resin is 🔥. Fo reals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then put them over his eyes in class so he could sleep. I freaking cried laughing at that one. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C&H had a lot more thought provoking, deep, and poignant themes than most comic strips. C&H shaped and molded my childhood, and instigated creativity and imagination.

It was often laugh-out-loud funny but just as often touching and heartwarming. One of the greatest strips ever, as good as Peanuts at its best. Was really sad when Bill Watterson shut it down but he did it right, stopping before the strip got stale or trite. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
