Haiku Monday - Pulchritude



White wheat thunderhead.
Cloudy cascade of brilliance.
Farmhouse Summer Ale.

Heh. Way to suck up to the judge :o)

I'm in awe of people who know and can drink beer. If I have one, it's usually a Corona with lime on a raging hot day. I also like Belgian ales and German kölsch(es). And there's something Czech I like, too. Regardless, though, I'm only usually ever good for about a half a glass.

Was that a fish skeleton I spied?

Glad to see you haven't been washed away by the floods. Tough times in your state; a good time to drink beer.

Love the bottle cap. Sometimes poster at my place, The Prodigy, opened his own microbrewery and it's doing quite well. I'll be down there in April for a full report. I'd link you to his website but he doesn't have it running yet. I'll talk to hime about that.

Believe what you want, the reason I chose this subject is because I just got an email from the brewery telling me that the Farmhouse Summer Ale was in the stores. I look forward to that every year because this is the best beer they make. They also make a really good Belgian Abbey Dubbel too.

Fishy
Yes it was. The Flying Fish logo.

Most of the rain (although we got 4") went to North Jersey and Eastern PA, so we're OK.

Boxer
It is a theme about beauty.

Troll
No I actually didn't know that, but it makes sense.

Madman
Then your buddy may have heard of Flying Fish. They were the first "virtual" brewery in that they established a website, logo and brewing recipes well before they produced their first bottle. And their only a few miles from my house.

Foam
Now that's way better than mine. Sometimes I just can't find the words. And I was not, I repeat, not sucking up.

Chicky
This only has about 7% wheat in it, It's mostly Belgian two-row pale malt to make a nice ale.

Gratuitous Pandering: Flying Fish Brewing Co.

And now - a joke:

A man is sitting at home on the verandah with his wife and he says, "I love you."

She asks, "Is that you or the beer talking?"

He replies, "It's me............. talking to the beer."
