Well apparently running for health purposes is a scam... my foot was bothering me today, went to the doctor and he said I have achilles tendinitis now. He said I should stop running for a bit. I asked if he suggest I drink tonight instead of going to the gym and he said yes. So on (the implied) doctors orders I had a Red Racer IPA, Thomas Hardy's 2008 and Ommegang Abbey Ale.SteelbackGuy wrote:kwjd wrote:Ran 10km for the first time in my life, so rewarding myself with a bomber of BORIS The Crusher... probably more calories than I burned on the run, but man, it is delicious.

Nevermind the f'n calories man. Enjoy your fucking beer! Cheers!![]()

So now you've seen the light!!! Every jog you go on, risks tendinitis!

Seriously, I'm glad you take care of yourself. I don't run, but I do tonnes of hiking(due to birding and fly fishing) and I eat well. To look at me you wouldn't know of course

But I just can't do the whole calorie thing. It seems restrictive and it makes you paranoid and worrying all the time. Just be healthy and enjoy a beer when you want one.

Finally tried Smashbomb tonight. Very nice stuff. I'd like to try it on tap before I make a final opinion as to how incredible it is, but it is a very delicious American IPA and I hope to see it on LCBO shelves sooner than later.
Followed this with a Blonde de Chambly. Screw the haters. I really like this beer.

Are there a lot of haters for the Blonde? It is well made and sessionably tasty. If there is hate for this beer, then it is mis-placed!

I've come across complaints about a lack of funk or having too light and watery a taste. True, no funk, but it doesn't take away from how tasty the beer is.SteelbackGuy wrote:notdan wrote:Finally tried Smashbomb tonight. Very nice stuff.

Agreed. And the hate about no funk likely comes from some moron labeling this beer as a Saison. As if.notdan wrote:I've come across complaints about a lack of funk or having too light and watery a taste.

It's a good beer to enjoy a pint of, and not every Saison will come off as something brewed in a barn somewhere in rural Belgium - particularly from a major craft beer producer trying to market the beer everywhere.SteelbackGuy wrote:notdan wrote:Followed this with a Blonde de Chambly.

It's a good effort from Unibroue, not a disappointment unless you were expecting a quirky or demanding beer (yeah right.)
-- oh -- and REALLY enjoying Corne du Diable, which really grows on me now just like it did last year. So be sure to try more than one or two. Hope it makes General List!

I sure hope you're talking about the brewery itself:SteelbackGuy wrote: Agreed. And the hate about no funk likely comes from some moron labeling this beer as a Saison. As if

I added it as a saison on BA since that's what Unibroue is calling it.
