spousal duties



Oh, gawd, I'm being dragged orft to see Harry Potter and the Half-Cut Prince tonight. Wish me strength, folks.

Last night we likewise went out on a date, and we discovered a magnificent beer: Troeg's Hopback Amber. Now, if I could smuggle a few bottles of that into the cinema tonight perhaps it'd help with the ol' fortitude . . .

Oh, I dunno. With a midnight showing I might have been able to sleep through it . . .

I got the bottled Troeg's after we'd come home. It's one of those extremely rare occasions when the bottled version is near as dammit indistinguishable from the draft: if I had the two side by side I could probably detect a difference, but as I'm concerned (and likewise a sampling Pam) the two are identical.

Unfortunately, the brewery declines to ship more than a few hours away from its home, so you'll have no luck looking for it in Atlanta. But if you're ever up in these parts . . .
