cheers again.
Loving all of the pictures and great toasts! Aggie - I love a good Oatmeal Stout, love the name of yours :) Who makes it?
It is a local place called Independence Brewing, unfortunately I think you have to come to Texas to get it. It was a very good stout but I had never had it before.
Convict Hill is actually a large hill in South Austin near the brewery. The hill is now home to a large residential community but back when the Texas State Capital was built it housed a limestone quarry which was mined for limestone used in the basement. The area was so far out of Austin proper then and labor so expensive they used convicts to work the quarry and thus the name was born. :)
I am late finding this thread and I'm actually at work..so cant' send picture or toast. But did enjoy some beers last night picking up my packet for my "beer run" tonight.
I saw Bike Chick mentioned Spotted Cow--OMG we love that beer. We brought some back after visiting our friends in Wisconsin, you can't get that beer here in FL!
Hope to post picture and toast to TE ladies after my 5K run for beer!

I'm not usually a stout person, more of an IPA person, but this was a bottle of 2010 commemorative Mammoth Brewing Co Imperial Stout we've had for a bit and it was delicious!
DD took the pic.

I <3 Imperial Stout. Old Rasputin is my fav. I have a 5 pack (I drank part of one) of Lagunitas Sucks Holiday Ale I should give to you. I'm not an IPA fan...which it is. Oops. :p No pix of me grimacing, will try something else later today.
Oooh! Mammoth Brewing Co. Good, good beer there.
Last night I enjoyed some Pure Hoppiness by Alpine Brewing Co (local San Diego). It was very yum and I forgot to commemorate the event with a photo. I then enjoyed a cider. :) Cheers!
PS: Reesha! Love your kittycat!
Finally got a beer pic. We were out at a very authentic Mexican restaurant in Waltham, where I had perhaps the spiciest food I have ever eaten (chicken in 7 chili sauce). The beer is just a Carta Blanca, but I like just about any Mexican beer. When we first moved here, you couldn't get them anywhere.
So I tried using my notebook's camera - the cats refused to help. Not that great photo quality.
Happy Thanksgiving my friends!
Sorry no beer, but I do have some very nice Riesling. :p
A bottle of wine (shared) and a beer- and a blond at that! A toast to my online friends whom are always there!. Love the off season!
I couldn't get a decent picture of me and my beer if my life depended on it, so here's the beer - a so-so Anchor Christmas Ale, but it looks nice in its Amici Veloci pint glass.
Cheers!!!
Did I miss the sale of the Amici Veloci glasses?
