    And the Winner of the Caption Contest is…

    Ian with his comment has won himself a $25 gift card to Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza.  Here was his comment.

    Dude Dude… play it cool. I think I have a chance with this one. The Owl Hat let’s me know shes wise and the romance novel she’s reading tells me she’s ready to go. How does my hair look?

    Congrats to Ian and thanks to everyone that participated.

    Caption Contest!

    As you may or may not remember, a couple weeks ago I attended a Holy Mackerel beer dinner at Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza in Coral Springs.  For attending I was given a $25 gift card to give out to a reader however I see fit.  So here is how I see fit.  It’s a good ol’ fashioned caption contest.

    The image below is of my good friend Brian when we were in Boston.  Hi Brian!  Brian loves beer too.  So keep that in mind.

    It’s simple.  Just make a comment as what you think the caption should be for this picture.  Best caption, in my opinion, by tomorrow (2/18/12) at 5 pm EST wins.  So be creative but let’s not get out of control.  Got it?

    Now there are a few rules but they are pretty easy.

    1. Must live in the South Florida area. I don’t want to risk a postal worker stealing your winnings. So I want to present it to you in person.
    2. You must put your real first name and email address in the comment fields.  Don’t worry your email won’t show to anyone but me and I will not sell it to Chinese spammers.
    3. Lastly, just one comment per person.  So think really hard and put your best effort forward.
    4. Oh actually one last one.  Brian is eligible to win.  Since we will be doing this at his expense (love you Brian) he should get a chance to take part.

    Okay those are the rules and how things work.  Now GO!

    Bell’s Brewery Night at BX Beer Depot Wednesday

    It’s that time of the year.  The time when people start going bat shit crazy over Bell’s Hopslam.  The wildly popular double IPA starts hitting shelves and taps to much fan fare around these early months and the craziness will be in full force at BX Beer Depot in Lake Worth this Wednesday January 15th.  Hopslam will grace the taps with some other great Bell’s beers.  And I am not over selling the use of the word great at all.

    It seems every few months the craft beer world collectively loses their minds over a beer.  This causes hype like some high schooler hitting the NBA.  And Bell’s Black Note is that latest beer doing this.  The bourbon barrel aged imperial stout has caused a stir from the relatively quite release from the brewery to now being sold on eBay for many hundred dollars a bottle.  And this machine of a beer will be on tap as well Wednesday night.  It is the only keg of it in the state so you best head there if you want a taste.

    In addition there will be a 2010 keg of Expedition stout accompanied by other great beers like Two Hearted Ale, Double Cream Stout and Third Coast Old Ale.  Still not convinced this is a great event?  Well let me first recommend you go see a doctor because you head is seriously not programmed right.  Then let me say that there will be a live video conference with the man himself, Larry Bell.

    Things get started at 5:30 pm on Wednesday so you better get there early if you want to try some of these outstanding Michigan beers.
