Drinking Beer at Noon

Post by Hungary Jack »

I'm in the Lou for a few days. Mrs. Jack and other family are due in tonight, so I decided to kill time by checking out Square One Brewery in Lafayette Square. Time of entry into establishment: 11:48 am.

I sampled the lager, weiss, dubbel, and stout. All pretty tasty. I especially liked the stout. Nothing like drinking beer yourself at noon on a Wednesday.

I was supposed to go drinking at 10 am, but I didn't think my system could handle it.

I've been meaning to try that place, but assumed it was terrible since Popeye has never mentioned it. I was at Bottleworks last night and the Schlafly was delicious as usual.

In a few hours I plan to drink some more and annihilate my brother at Golden Tee at Bar Louie.

He has mentioned it and has said that the beer fails his quality tests on all accounts.

That's 4 p-m in Dublin. Tell your system that you are in Ireland and everything will be cool. :TimeForGuinness:

If you have some free time today I'll buy you a pint or two at one of my favorite spots.

Darn. Sorry I missed this. We left Friday and are back in The People's Republic of Lakeview now. Have to work today because my staff are getting a well-deserved break.

I did manage to see a half of Webster vs. Kirkwood. Some young Statesman made an incredible one-hand catch for a TD. Ran into John Peacock and Elizabeth at the game.
