2017 in Review, Beer

It would be completely insane to try to actually quantify the best beers I drank this year, but here are a few items.

An ancient bottle of Fish Poseidon's Wine Barrel Aged Imperial Stout Batch 004 @ Stumbling Monk, after years of waiting for the right occasion

The Masonry's Farmhouse Fest @ KEXP

Stumbling Monk's amazing lambic night during Seattle Beer Week and generally having Oud Beersel and BFM's Abbaye de Saint Bon-Chien on tap almost all year long

Slow Boat's special events: Orval Day, Zwanze Day, Jester King, Holy Mountain, all-you-can-drink fundraiser for Planned Parenthood

Portland, any time of year

Went searching through the archives to find this, since I couldn't remember the track title or artist name. Might as well re-re-blog.

I am wild about this song. Wrote about it for Pitchfork today.
