Today, Buzz and I went to the Connecticut River Brewer's Festival in Holyoke. It was a bit pricey to get in: $5 to park, $10 to get in, and then $1 for each tiny glass of beer. Still, it was nice to try all the different kinds of beer. There were a lot of kinds to try. We had a great time trying different kinds of beer and chatting about beer and our lives. It's great to have friends.
I took a particular of the Holyoke Dam Ale -- I really like that name, but our favorite was either the "leatherlips" IPA from the Haverhill Brew Pub or the IPA from the Brooklyn Brewery. They were both exquisitely hoppy. Delicious.
It was about the best use imaginable for a rainy fall afternoon.
