At the Alexander by chance?...No matter...There are plenty of places on the streets I mentioned but a lot of the good ones are pretty far up or down & you may not want to venture that far on foot... I'd just go to Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse in the Zipper building...You pay $50 per person & they just keep bringing you meat...

Walking or driving?...Mass Ave to the North, Virginia Avenue to the South...

blerg...unresolved... but two part x-mas special is good news...

Happy Birthday!...

sucks...

Cheers to Adrian & Jacob:)... They had the Angel's Envy Rye with rum barrel finish & the Jefferson's Ocean #2 in a locked case next to the small bottles...

Well it didn't seem like anyone was running bar at Arnold's...We left at the threat of live music... The Mastodon was pretty tasty & wasn't just a Belgian yeast bomb...I haven't gotten to the Truth yet...I got some sorta Nøgne Ø/Brew Dog/Mikkeller Horizon Tokyo Black & Bourbon Væsel Brunch at Party Source...& a Drie Fonteinen Zwet.be...

Then Jungle Jim's which is too big to photograph...Had some Rhinegeist Matador then got a growler fill of Trôegs Nugget Nectar...Got some Sprecher Hard Root Beer, two sixers of Rhinegeist Truth & a bomber of Revolution TV Party...

After taking the 2nd pic I turned around only to see Colin!...I was going to sneak up on him but some nutter was trying to help him with selecting whiskey so I did some more shopping...Looked again & he was gone!...I may never know which bottle(s) he chose...

THEN MOAR WHISKEY HAPPENED... That 1792 was a special Party Source only release...Wathens had some burn to it...Hibiki's unoffensive...

Then Day Two began w/a Mac Meitner MA-1 Pass J2 Beyer T1 listening session...The optical out sounded better to me fwiw.... I tried the T1s through the Woo W2, but much prefered the Pass... & then compared the Sennheiser IE-800, Westone 4 & Audéo PF-232 all with an iPhone 5...The Senns made the others look/sound silly...Tremendous bass...

Then we walked over to Yard House for a bunch of beers that I don't remember but I think were mostly from Great Lakes...Might've been a Sculpin or two...

After Nicholson's, I met up with my brother at Arnold's...I tried the above & some sort of pale from Fifty West...

I'm still knockin' 'em down at Yard House...More shopping planned for tomorrow...

The main pack was out to lunch when I arrived started shopping...Mainly Revolution stuff, but also grabbed a sixer of Nugget Nectar & a Rodenbach Caractère Rouge:)...LOBBY PARTY!...

Which hotel?...I'm just leaving Indy...

I'm passing on a bottle of Booker's Anniversary Fuck Your Wallet Edition unless one of you says it's great...

That's the one!... It occurs to me that I've never actually eaten there...But they always have good beer & conversation...

Hope it was grand...Cheers!...

I'm open to suggestion, but maybe any of us that are interested can meet at Dilly afterwards for food & beer?...Love for you to meet Peanut...& there's a new brewpub very near called Fifty West that I haven't checked out yet...

Enjoying the snowiest winter on record in Indiana...I've only fallen once & that was due to improper footware...Sadly, a Founders Sweet Repute perished but, luckily, I still have some '09 Nemesis left...

I can be there whenever but I figured anything would go down after the meet...I'm also low on funds but determined as always!...& I need to stop by some combo of Sergio's, Party Source, Dilly Cafe, Hop & Vine, Jungle Jim's, Reingheist & Belmont Party Supply...& I haven't been to Fries in a spell...

kinda disappointed with the latest episode...Is this a six & done "season"?...

I have the time off & am borrowing transport...Are there post-meet beer brewery/store plans of any sort?...Should I bring anything?...

I like the Bunnahabhain 12, but the Macphail's Collection Bunnahabhain 8 is a steal...
