"Hop-Ruiter"-De Scheldebrowerij

Name: Hop-Ruiter
Maker: De Scheldebrowerij
Loc: Meer, Belgium
Type: Belgian Ale, Blond Hoppy Beer
Color: Yellow, Cloudy
Size: 1pt 9.4fl oz
A/V: 8%
Label: 10/10 Very cool to both read and look at
Review: I would absolutely buy this beer again.  I can not think of a situation where I wouldn't want to drink Hop-Ruiter.  The label says its a "hoppy-wheat" beer and I'd say that is absolutely true.  It is a bit more wheat then hoppy, which to me is part of why its so good.  This is just a good motherfucking beer that i will purchase as often as possible.  I can picture both William Wallace and Batman being big fans of Hop-Ruiter.  This is what Samwise was drinking the night he proposed to Rosie and I am sure the Double-Deuce had it on tap.  As a general rule of thumb, if its Belgian then its probably pretty good.
10/10 Fucking Outstanding.

Weird thoughts...

Where do they come from?  The other night i told a friend a mine about how i recently got a telemarketer to hang up on me after i told her that she interrupted me from training my pet spider monkey how to not try and peel my uncircumcised penis like a banana.  His response was, "Oh my god, what the fuck is wrong with you? How do these thoughts enter your mind?"

And i thought about that for a minute, and i really don't know.  It just came to me, i didn't really have to think about it.  It was just another weird thought I had. Where do weird thoughts in general come from, funny or otherwise? That's what i wanna know.

I remember this one time i was outside hanging out by myself reading, and no one was really around,  then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, i suddenly had the thought that i should jerkoff.  And i immediately knew that was weird, but where it came from or why, I have no idea.  And of course i didn't jerkoff, I'm not an animal, I don't have to act on every thought I have, but that doesn't mean I didn't have it. 

If I knew where weird thoughts came from and how to control them then I'd probably rule the world by now.  But since I don't, I'm just another weird white guy that frightens Asian women.

"Baltic Thunder"-Victory Brew Co

Name: Baltic Thunder
Maker: Victroy Brewing Co.
Loc: Downington, PA
Type: Porter (Baltic style)
Color: Black
Size: 1 PT 6FL OZ
Alc by Vol: 8.5%
Label: 7/10 Cool enough to make me notice it
Review: Brought a nice unique flavor to a style of beer (porter) that I am familiar with.  It was not just another porter but at the same time was not too far gone from being a porter that it was too weird/different/ecclectic for my taste (like the crem brulee flavored one that my wife bought me once that was so sickly sweet and awful i can only describe it as tasting like liquid easter candy). 

Baltic Thunder is a very solid beer that i can easily see myself being able to drink several of in a sitting and potentially in abundance.  Its a light-tasting, clean porter that does not linger like some heavier porters have a tendancy to do.  It is as refreshing as a porter can be.

To me this is the type of beer that would have been served in the better taverns of Middle Earth.  The cool ones at least.  I could easily see myself having a few pints of this either after a long day of kicking ass on the battlefield with my gigantic battle axe (or mace) or after a long day of peasant work out in the fields.  Either way its a mans beer and a damn good one.  8/10 Kick ass

Beer Basket

So I won a basket of beer in an auction at a cancer benefit.  And since the name of this blog is "1,000 Beers" I figured it would be a good idea to blog about each beer.  They are all micro-brews in the (mostly) 25oz and $10 a bottle range.  I don't have the most educated palat but I'll try (I don't even know how to fucking spell palat but you know what I mean). I will also try to not be a douche bag about it.  So here goes...
