"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Damn! Mark, I forgot to bring some bum rash cream to the advent exchange for you. :)

Thanks all. Just Grockin along at work today. Got a nice PH meter from Kathleen. She got it through her work. The other one I had worked a couple of times and then turned into a random number generating machine.

Thanks everyone, apart from the wild sex, I might have been desecrated, but no pictures, and the fillet steak with stilton and sage sauce and mango raspberries and cream for desert ...no pictures, I'm still grinning about the PH meter. I do have a picture of that of course.
