I've had a couple of these over the past week. Porter may well be my favorite beer. It's usually simple and honest without a lot of cutesy special flavorings. I don't know who the woman on the label is supposed to be; I'd have guessed porter was historically a working man's beer, but maybe it was the beer of choice for working girls, too. The label claims Founders Porter is dark, rich, and sexy. I'd certainly agree that it's dark, and I suppose it's pretty rich compared to the thin American lagers I drank when I first started drinking beer, but sexy is not a word I'd use to describe what I like about porters.

Ardbeg Corryvreckan is magnificent. Islay malts are the best!

I’m not a Scotch guy, but that sure is a nice photo Vince.

Thanks, Todd! Scotch has always been my favourite spirit. Wish it were priced like bourbon!

Jon, since you're a baseball fan, I'll ask you this tongue-in-cheek question: do you think that in Cleveland they now call the Indian River Jack the Guardian River Jack??

I would think so. I’ll have to ask a cop worker who’s from there tomorrow now

Me too!

Thanks Jon. Next time you get up this way we’ll pull up a couple of stools behind a few of them.

Jon, have you selected your beers to celebrate the annual Coast Guard Festival in Grand Haven MI starting today?
I don't know if it's a big deal for the Coast Guard itself, but it is for the town of Grand Haven; festival organizers claim that it brings in 350000 visitors each summer!

A couple of nights ago I had my monthly IPA for July:
