Redhook Blonde and Jay's triumphant return

Jay "Jabroni" Subbers is back in town for a one night special and we met up at the Townhouse and ran into old friends Adri and Brad and what I thought would be a quick drink turned into an erstwhile festivus talking about old times, bourbon, Coachella and one of my favorite subjects, savory food. Brad keeps segueing into stories by yelling out "RAAAANDY" from Aziz Ansari stand-up and it surprisingly never gets old. Awesomeness prevails tonight.

Blonde's have more fun - but not as much as gingers

Back home I'm cracking open a Redhook Blonde. I'm a big fan of blonde ales but I recall not liking this in college. However, there's truth to the "every seven years your taste buds change" because I'm enjoying this even though it has failing marks on the beer advocate website. Maybe that's the Maker's talking, but the medium body feels right and the taste is clean with a touch of hops. If Redhook was pitched against Sam Adams in a Beer Bowl, I'd be rooting for Redhook to win - ima fan. ARMAGEDDON rating.
