Beer Goodness
Headed over to Grumpy’s on Washington Avenue in downtown Minneapolis after a thrilling win by the Minnesota Twins last night. The goal was to score a pint of Flat Earth’s Belgian Pale Ale. Found out from the waitress that it was only available at their NE location. So I ordered a Surly Furious to celebrate instead. It was hoppy and it was good. After driving home and settling down with an easy going Canadian session lager Moosehead, I developed a collection of links which point to some great beer expeiences.
