I have been ignoring my own blog what a shame. Nothing too big happened beer wise. But I think I need to talk about how cheap I am. Not am I only a beer hunter I am a bargain beer hunter in fact. There is a small beer distributor in Ronkonkoma and they have the best prices. The selection is ok, I mean their best thing is they carry the Southampton stuff. They dont get it first and they dont sell the Old Herb but they are the cheapest and I mean by far. For their region the are about 2-3 bucks cheaper. Plus everything else they carry is cheap as well, its basically a selection worth of a visit but not true beer geekdom. But I was considering curtailing my beer buying. Only buy from this one guy. He has the stuff I would like to drink in general and of course its cheap. He gets the Southampton beers and eventually gets some new stuff. Also, he orders the Saranac carmel Porter ever year. So basically, he would have me covered as long as I didnt need to be the first alchy on my block to try the new "hot" beer. And even then I could do a Jersey trip every few months as well. Only list the beers this store carries as tradables, yada, yada, yada.

I am bit sick tonight so I am drink tea instead of beer. I was thinking Lipton is probably like the Bud of teas. And the Herbal Seasonings stuff is like Heiniken. So why yank my chain and drink the Herbal Seasoning, I'll stick to the Lipton. Hey I am all up for real tea from China but only one obsessive hobby at a time.

I guess this is my first "other musings" post, partially. I promise to return fully to beer once I feel better.
