Drinks I like part 1

I write this late at night, _____ days / hours before the birth of our second child who at this point is still yet to be named.  So in theory I should update this post, but I bet I won't.

I am going to diverge a bit from my normal writings and talk a bit about some of things I like.  Drinks.  Beer & Tea.

First up beer.  I like beer.  I think I should write about the beers I like and why.

The other day for a staff meeting I bought a 6 pack of Bridgeport Café Negro Porter.  A smooth porter that has been infused with a dark coffee flavor.  My tongue couldn't pick up the coffee flavor, but man o man was that a wonderful beer.  Dark, rich, smooth.  Not overly sweet like some porters can be, and it wasn't PWN Hoppy!  It made me very happy indeed.  You should try some.  NOW!

You can find out more about it at their website - -bridgeportbrew.com

Now on the other side of the coin, I also really enjoy tea.  Black or herbal, I like both.  Since working down in Pike Place Market I have also started mostly using loose leaf brewing methods.  I like it better.  It's cheaper, fresher, tastier, and well funnier too.

My mother-inlaw got me this wonderful tea pot with a built in screen.

I will chat more about teas as we progress.
