Lord I wish I didn’t have to keep using that graphic.  You may have noticed a peculiar lack of updates recently.  it started out as the usual holiday business but has turned into to something much less (or more depending on how you feel about holiday business) enjoyable.  And as much as I would like to be drinking beer to get better, I feel that my wonky taste buds would make my usual unintelligible reviews even less so.  So do please forgive my absence as I try to overcome this malady. I will also try to track down my two other compatriots that have been missing and presumed having a better time than me.  While you are waiting though, feel free to check out our tumblr, twitter, and facebook.  oh and for those who haven’t got their Christmas shopping all taken care of, you can pick up some great TWIB merchandise in our store.

While I continue to try to track down a bottle of Delirium Noel in Lansing, I will give you this Cryptic Review of an interesting beer made with sorghum.  For those that don’t know (I didn’t) sorghum is a plant that looks kind of like wheat but smaller I guess.

Boo! Did I scare you? No? Yeah, right, I knew I scared you a little.  Tis the season right? Dashing thru the snow leaves and all. Yeah I know that is Christmas stuff, but Halloween doesn’t get enough love, where are the Halloween Carols? This maybe one of my favorite holidays, so I am going to celebrate with a Halloween season beer.  This week I tried the La Parcela from Jolly Pumpkin, strangely enough, the first pumpkin beer that came out of the brewery that bears that squash’s name. Enjoy.

Hey there everybody, I’m back with another quick cryptic review.  Today I’ve got my thoughts on the Demolition by Goose Island. I also had a chance to use one of those Beer Savers bottlecaps, I’ll give you my thoughts on those a little later. But now is not the time for that, now is the time for beer.
