Pete, we miss you

Peter William,
You missed a drunken weekend of Dark Lord, Steepwater, and 36+ holes of golf. It isn't the same without you. Come home.

Should I stay or should I go... to a new apartment

So here we are with another weekend in the books.  Last night I went back to Itaewon with a friend from work and had some pretty solid beer.  I've now learned that Granat is some kind of sour cherry beer.  We downed a few and had a pretty great meal.

Went for a run in the forest research center next door to KIAS late this afternoon.  I could run there till the cows come home.  Barry when I get back in June I'll be ready to lace 'em up.  The paths cut through a pine forest dotted with scores of flowering cherry trees.   I love having access to this place (point for staying in my apartment).  On the other hand when I got home there was no hot water and all I wanted to do was get in the shower (point for moving to a new apartment).

Therefore grocery shopping followed by a cold brew at a local Quickie Mart.  It's threatening for a thunderstorm; I hope we get one.  I'd like to learn the Korean word for thunderstorm come to think of it.

A great weekend.  Hope you're having the same.

So lazy and surly...

Drink a beer for these wonderful unionites across the pond:

Job at Tyranena

Tyranena's Beer Ambassador is leaving and they will be accepting applications soon.  I am thinking about applying for the job, anyone think I would be good at convincing people to buy beer?  :)  It could potentially be a lot of travel (they are thinking of splitting the area covered by two people, so if they did so it wouldn't be as much travel).  It would also mean working for Rob, who is known as a sexist ass.

Any thoughts?

Walnut bomb

Barry and I are splitting a 1987 J.W. Lee's Harvest - it feels like getting hit over the head with a folding chair. 23 years worth of aging brings out some pretty potent potability. The aroma is like huffing something ... pretty sure you'd lose braincells if you smelled this too long.

The flavor and consistency is like Walnut-heavy maple syrup.

This is really a category unto itself ... I don't even feel like you can compare it to other beers, it's a different beverage entirely. I think about 1 oz is about as much as I can drink - I like it in theory, but it's just a little much.

Greetings from Germany

Wow this place is beautiful. If you want a postcard, then send me your address.
